Fortunately, Iran is a country of four seasons. This provides the beekeeper with very favorable conditions. In a country like Canada it’s always winter. But in Iran, in the winter, for example, it is a snow-covered area and at the same time in an area like the south of the country, it has the best conditions for beekeeping.
When the nectar and honey harvest season bees, the beekeeper takes his bees to the countryside. It depends on the climatic conditions of each region. A beekeeper who has moved his bees to the south in winter because the bees are more mobile and the number of bees is growing can produce more honey and bee keeping his bees in winter and for example in Tehran And to the south of the country, less honey can be harvested.
In 2016, 81,000 tons of honey were produced, of which only 1,500 tons were exported.
In most provinces of Iran, bees are reared and honey is produced.
