Abstract

Honey bee cultivation activities before community empowerment In Tanah Laut Regency have actually been carried out independently the great interest of these farmers needs to be supported by community/community/group based empowerment programs so that in the future farmers can more easily access the needs they need. In addition, with groups, farmers can increase productivity and income compared to if done individually. The methods used in this research include SWOT analysis. The results showed that the condition of honey bee cultivation in Tanah Laut Regency is good. The strategy that must be carried out is synchronizing regulations starting from the Central, Provincial, Regency/City governments, which is very important so that the policies made can be applied in the field. The synergy between agencies and institutions will support and accelerate the success of community empowerment programs based on honey processing. The main strategy for community empowerment based on honey bee management in Tanah Laut District can be done by increasing the quantity and quality of honey production in order to attract consumers to use the products produced by farmers/breeders.
