The trainings, which mainly aims to develop the small business ecosystem in Dashkasan, promote beekeeping and boost natural honey production, lasted for 3 days. 32 farmers operating in Chowdar, Bayan, Gushchu villages and Shadakh settlement of Dashkasan district were trained on the rules of bee care, beekeeping and queen bee breeding by the consultants engaged in the project. As part of the program, methodical instructions were distributed to raise awareness towards the treatment and prevention of diseases that harm beekeeping.
Apart from that, the experts involved by Ganja SMB of KOBİA Development Center provided the training actors with detailed information on the measures taken towards entrepreneurship development, the exquisite environment established for business activity, and the mechanisms of providing beneficial financial support to entrepreneurial entities.

Villagers to successfully complete the training will be awarded certificates, bee colonies, and other related equipment to help them expand their private farms.
