Revision as of 12:14, 11 December 2018
Based on the so far evaluated literature and expert interviews, the following knowledge gaps were identified and need further attention (10.12.2018):
Ethiopia
- no record of exact number of beekeepers
- there is a beeswax business, but no information on its use is available
- information on a propolis business is missing (no statistics, use, ...)
- a floral calendar of important melliferous plants is missing
- fragmentary published data on Hive Management; none of the provided information is representative for the whole country, but for regions only. Bee health management based on communication, but no records available
- good beekeeping practice exists, but is underdeveloped
- information on migratory beekeeping is missing
- no pollination business, further research and education is necessary
- no studies on honey bee viruses are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on foulbrood are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on N. ceranae are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on Tropilaelaps spp. are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- the methods of local beekeepers to deal with honey bee health issues are only based on personal communication.
Indonesia
- beekeeping related keynumbers are missing (no. of beekeepers, no. of hives, amount of produced honey, etc...)
- A. mellifera was introduced to Indonesia, but morphological and genetic studies are needed to identify the origin(s) of the introduced A. mellifera subspecies

- the honey market value chain is only based on personal communication with local scientists. No studies or publications available
- no information on beeswax (statistics, use, ...)
- pollen business related information is only based on personal communication with local scientists. No studies or publications available
- a propolis business exists, but no statistics or further details are available
- few literature deals with important melliferous plants and a floral calendar is missing
- honey harvesting season(s) is/are not well defined and only based on personal communication with local scientists. No studies or publications available
- literature on existing and commonly used hive types is missing and only based on personal communication with local scientists. No studies or publications available
- fragmentary published data on Hive Management; none of the provided information is representative for the whole country, but for regions only. Bee health management based on communication, but no records available
- good beekeeping practice is non-existing
- migratory beekeeping with A. mellifera exists, but the knowledge is only based on personal communication with local scientists and detailed information is missing. No studies or publications available
- studies dealing with beekeeping problems and constraints are missing, but it is assumed, that Indonesia has similar problems as Ethiopia
- no pollination business, further research and education is necessary
- beekeeping associations comparable to European associations do not exist
- no studies on honey bee viruses are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on Malpighamoeba mellificae are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on birds affecting the honey bee colony's size are available (species, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on foulbrood are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on N. apis are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on chalkbrood are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on wax moths are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on bee lice are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- no studies on small, or adult large hive beetles are available (presence, distribution, severity, ...)
- the methods of local beekeepers to deal with honey bee health issues are only based on personal communication.
