AlManshiyah Farmers Market hosted the first AlUla Honey event, an initiative designed to highlight the quality of local honey and provide support to beekeepers in the region. Could the diversity of local flora be the secret behind such high-quality production?
According to SPA, the event was held by the Royal Commission for AlUla. The gathering showcased various honey products created by local beekeepers as part of an effort to strengthen the agricultural sector, increase local production, and open new market opportunities for those producing the honey.
The governorate of AlUla currently has more than 3,000 beehives which are managed by 28 beekeepers. These operations result in the annual production of more than 12 tons of honey. How does the management of these 3,000 beehives impact the overall yield of the region?
