Quintana Roo Gov. Roberto Borge Angulo
announced on Wednesday that the state government will spend 19 million
pesos ($1.5 million) from the Equipment and Infrastructure Investment
Support Program to aid 450 honey producers in the Felipe Carrillo
Puerto, Othón P. Blanco, Bacalar and José María Morelos municipalities
in 2014.
According to Borge Angulo, this program will allow the state’s
beekeepers to modernize their activities through the purchase of
stainless steel beehive boxes, smokers and honey extractors, allowing
them to produce the highest-quality honey.
Beekeepers will also be provided with advisors who will ensure that
their honey has commercial quality and is free of contaminants.
The state government will continue to provide resources to support
the honey producers of Quintana Roo, Borge Angulo added, allowing them
to grow their businesses and modernize their beekeeping techniques and
thus obtain bigger profits.
Quintana Roo Rural Development Secretary Luis González Flores said
that the state’s honey is the best in all of Mexico, which is why it’s
important to support the modernization of this industry in order to
obtain a competitive advantage on the world market.
