Abstract
This study looks at the technical and management issues related to beekeeping in Timor-Leste and Indonesia focusing on A. mellifera and A. cerana. The study also examines the the role of honey hunting involving, A. cerana, A. dorsata and the many species of stingless bees as well as the potential of stingless beekeeping. In particular, the study seeks to identify the key considerations for developing a viable honey bee industry, suitable for landless and subsistence communities that is environmentally, socially and economically sustainable.
