Market Analysis

The Indian apiculture market is being driven by the growing production of honey in the region and the rising consumer demand for natural products. Raw honey has been adopted as a folk remedy in the region since ancient times as it provides a variety of health benefits. Owing to the medicinal benefits of honey and beeswax, industries such as pharmaceutical and beauty and personal well-being are increasingly adopting them to manufacture several product types. The growing demand for honey in the ayurvedic industry, which is expanding at a healthy pace in the region, is expected to drive the growth of the apiculture industry over the forecast period.

Further, the growing consumer awareness regarding the consumption of sugar and its harmful effect on health is driving the demand for honey. Honey is used as an alternative to sugar in various dishes and food recipes. The honey found in grocery stores is pasteurised, improving the colour and texture of the honey and eliminating unwanted yeast from the same. Manufacturers are continuously enhancing their production process, further aiming to extend the shelf life of the product, which is expected to aid the industry in the future. Currently, the direct consumption of honey is not very high in the region, but growing consumer awareness regarding the benefits of honey is expected to provide various growth opportunities to the industry over the forecast period.

Owing to its low cost, farmers prefer beekeeping as an important subsidiary occupation, which provides high returns as honey, bee wax, bee venom, propolis, and others. The growing government support to enhance the honey production in India through enhanced commercialisation and innovation and exports are expected to contribute significantly to the industry growth in the coming years.
