SAFETY AS A CORE VALUE

BEEKEEPING Institutions and private beekeepers throughout the country manage hives in sustainable environments within the company’s forest plantations, a certified ideal environment for this activity thanks to the flowering period of Eucalyptus. All beekeepers harvesting honey in the company’s fields must abide by the Good Beekeeping Practices instituted by Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries (MAGAP). By professionalising the sector, beekeepers are able to maximise the use of potential productive areas and increase productivity. This work method aims to drive community development and strengthen local institutions through active participation in honey production. These same institutions are responsible for managing and allocating hive locations in UPM forests.
