Bee honey is food

The potential offered by Eucalyptus, Baobab and other species trees, particularly for production of honey and oil, has been little utilized in most places where these particular trees are found. Many species of these trees flower over long periods in the year, including in the dry season after the harvest of agricultural crops. several of these species are rich in both nectar and pollen.
These bee products(honey, wax, pollen, royal jelly and spropolis) can play a great sweetening quality and therefore useful in cooking various dishes. They are more digestible than normal sugar. Honey contain other things(vitamins, enzymes and a small amount of protein), which has a great nutritive values than sugar. These products are saleable/found in the markets, so as to supplement/boost the family incomes.

Please be careful with the Eucalyptus trees. In Europe in some regions around the mediterranean sea (Greece, Portugal) people were at first very happy with Eucalyptus, but than the groundwater level was sinking, because they need a lot of water, swamps were falling dry and crops could not get enough water. And afterwards it was very difficult to get rid of the Eucalyptus, because their roots dig so deep.
Maybe it is better to use regional trees, I guess, Baobab may be one of them.
