ProgressReport:BeekeepingInitiative (ProjectID:64634)
Introduction
This report presents the progress made on the project, “Beekeeping Initiative” between the month of September 2024 to January 2025 at the Palpa Project site of PA Nepal. The main focus was on providing essential support to the Beekeeping Initiative Project. Out of the 42 available hives, only 15 currently house bees. The remaining hives are empty, mainly due to wild hornets attacks from nearby forests and harsh weather conditions which contributed to hive disruptions

Conclusion
Despitethechallenges posed by theweather condition and external factors likewild hornet attacks from nearby forests, the Beekeeping Initiative has shown resilience. Out of the 42 hives, 15 remain still active, and we are hopeful that the remaining hives will be repopulated in coming months if conditions improve. Regular monitoring and protective measures are in place to safeguard the hives from further insect attacks. Moving forward, the focus will be on repopulating the hives, maintaining hive health, and eventually expand once things are stable.
