Ethiopia: There is no official data on the total number of beekeepers in Ethiopia, but Gupta (2014) estimated it to be more than 1 million. [1] The number of bee hives in the country is 6,189,329 (FAO 2016), [2] while MoARD (2007) estimated the total number of honey bee colonies (hived and feral honey bee colonies) to be ~10 million. [3] The data has been put in context with the official numbers of the total population size and the total country area, resulting in 0.906 beekeepers/km2, 6.189 colonies/beekeeper, 5.605 colonies/km2 and 0.058 colonies/capita.
Indonesia: There is no official data on the total number of beekeepers, nor the number of hives for Indonesia, but the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) provided information on beekeeping with A. mellifera in West Java. Thus, the number of hives in West Java was 7,141 in 2016. The data has been put in context with the official numbers of the total population size (West Java) and the total country area (West Java) resulting in 0.202 colonies/km2 and 0.000153 colonies/capita. [4]
Table: Available key numbers of apiculture (total population, total country area [km2], no. of beekeepers, no. of hives, beekeepers/km2, colonies/beekeeper, colonies/km2, colonies/capita, and the total amount of honey/year) are shown.
| Ethiopia | West Java (Indonesia) | |
| Total Population (2017) | 104,957,438 [2] | 46,709,600 [4] (263,991,379) [4] |
| Total country area [km2] | 1,104,300 [2] | 35,377 [4] (1,904,569) [5] |
| No. of beekeepers | >1 mio [1] | N/A (N/A) |
| No. of hives (A. mellifera) | 6,189,329 [2] | 7,141 [6] (N/A) |
| Beekeepers/km2 | 0.906 | N/A (N/A) |
| Colonies/beekeeper | 6.189 | N/A (N/A) |
| Colonies/km2 | 5.605 | 0.202 (N/A) |
| Colonies/capita | 0.058 | 0.000153 (N/A) |
| Total amount of honey/year [kg] (2016) | 47,706,000 [2] | 35,798.8 [6] (N/A) |
