KANDAHAR, Afghanistan, April 11 (Xinhua) -- The beekeeping and honey production industry in Afghanistan's southern province of Kandahar has been expanding after long years of insecurity and heavy fighting.
"Running a beekeeping farm is a satisfying and profitable career. The honey produced on my farm is pure, and the profitable industry has attracted many farmers to raise bees ... harvest honey and sell (them) to local markets," Abdul Bari, a farmer, told Xinhua recently.
