Economics analysis of the use of modern and traditional methods in honey production among farmers in Enugu State Nigeria
Öz
Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the cost and returns on the use of traditional and modern methods of honey production and barriers faced by farmers.
Material and Methods: Primary data was collected from 100 beekeepers using both purposive and random selection techniques. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and cost and return analysis.
Results: The modern methods of apiculture had a higher honey yield (105.4 litres) than the traditional method (52.3 litres). Also, modern methods had a higher gross margin (₦123,434.54) and benefit-cost ratio (2.99) than traditional methods, with a gross margin of ₦73,055.46 and a benefit-cost ratio of 2.99. The major constraints faced in apiculture include pests, hive theft and vandalism, changing climatic conditions, lack of equipment, and lack of capital.
Conclusion: The modern method of beekeeping was more profitable and the best technique to use in honey production. This study recommends sensitization and training on modern apiculture, the provision of modern equipment, and credit facilities to beekeepers to enable them to adopt the modern method.

Nijerya, Enugu Eyaletindeki çiftçiler arasında bal üretiminde modern ve geleneksel yöntemlerin kullanımının ekonomik analizi
Öz
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, geleneksel ve modern bal üretim yöntemlerinin kullanımının maliyet ve getirilerini ve çiftçilerin karşılaştığı engelleri incelemektir.
Materyal ve Yöntem: Hem gayeli hem de rastgele seçim teknikleri kullanılarak 100 arıcıdan birincil veriler toplanmıştır. Veriler, tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve maliyet ve getiri analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir.
Araştırma Bulguları: Modern arıcılık yöntemleri, geleneksel yönteme (52,3 litre) göre daha yüksek bal verimine (105.4 litre) sahiptir. Ayrıca, modern yöntemlerin brüt kâr (₦123,434.54) ve fayda-maliyet oranı (2,99), geleneksel yöntemlerin brüt kârından (74,055,46) ve fayda-maliyet oranından (2,98) daha yüksektir. Arıcılıkta karşılaşılan başlıca arasında zararlılar, kovan hırsızlığı ve vandalizm, değişen iklim koşulları, ekipman eksikliği ve sermaye eksikliği sayılabilir.
Sonuç: Modern arıcılık yöntemi daha kârlı ve bal üretiminde kullanılacak en iyi tekniktir. Bu çalışma, modern arıcılık konusunda eğitim verilmesini, modern ekipman temini ve çiftçilerin modern yöntemi benimseyebilmeleri için kredi kolaylıkları sağlanmasını önermektedir.
