Conservation Honey Manager Nirajan Chhetri at Bardiya National Park, Nepal, the base for the operation. Here Nirajan presents education funding to a young student who lost a family member in an encounter with a tiger. The support for victims of conflict with wildlife is a key element to the function of Conservation Honey.



Nirajan with his mother Sarswoti who since the inception of Conservation Honey has not relied at all on jungle resources thus ensuring her own safety, preventing human-wildlife conflict and showing the benefit of alternative livelihood.



Local farmers benefit from increased crop pollination and alternative sustainable livelihood through Conservation Honey.



Nirajan works closely with local partners at all levels of the operation.



Employment opportunities open up as a result of Conservation Honey.



Mustard flowers are one of the main flora pollinated by Conservation Honey bees thus increasing crop yields and providing a healthy, tasty honey product.



Revenue and partnerships resulting from Conservation Honey mean community benefits such as in this image when rice was handed out to people in need during the pandemic.



The Katie Adamson Conservation Fund (KACF) is a major partner offering both support and expertise. Plans to expand on biological fence research and implementation are under way, these "beehive fences" help reduce crop raiding by elephants. The KACF are playing a key role in this development.
