Maharashtra Woman Earns Rs 25 Lakh Annually Through Organic Beekeeping

A woman named Rohini learned about beekeeping from a small ad.

Even though she couldn't take a class right away, she really wanted to learn.

So, she got 35 other women from her village to help convince a school to teach them beekeeping.

Rohini found out that beekeeping didn't need much money or space but could make a lot of honey.

She borrowed money and mortgaged her jewelry to buy bee boxes.

It was tough at first with bee stings and some of her bees dying.

But she didn't give up and learned from her mistakes.

Now, she takes care of over 100 bee boxes and collects a lot of pure honey every year.

This business makes her Rs 25 lakh every year.

She shows that working hard can turn a small idea into a big success, especially for women and farmers.
