Pollen - Ethiopia
Ethiopia: So far, there exists no classical pollen business in Ethiopia, where the beekeepers install pollen traps to collect and sell exclusively the pollen product (per. communication with the Holeta Bee Research Center). But of the 90% of sold crude honey, about 80% goes into the tej-production and crude honey consists of not only honey, but also of wax and pollen and the pollen plays an important role for the production of honey beer (fermentation process).
