Beekeeping in India has been mentioned in ancient Vedas and Buddhist scriptures. Rock paintings of Mesolithic era found in Madhya Pradesh depict honey collection activities. Scientific methods of beekeeping, however, started only in the late 19th century, although records of taming honeybees and using in warfare are seen in the early 19th century. After Indian independence, beekeeping was promoted through various rural developmental programs. Five species of bees that are commercially important for natural honey and beeswax production are found in India.

  • Peternakan lebah di India telah disebutkan dalam Veda kuno dan kitab suci Buddha. Lukisan batu dari era Mesolitik yang ditemukan di Madhya Pradesh menggambarkan kegiatan pengumpulan madu. Metode ilmiah peternakan lebah baru dimulai pada akhir abad ke-19, meskipun catatan tentang penjinakan lebah madu dan penggunaannya dalam peperangan terlihat pada awal abad ke-19. Setelah kemerdekaan India, peternakan lebah dipromosikan melalui berbagai program pembangunan pedesaan. Lima spesies lebah yang secara komersial penting bagi madu alami dan produksi lilin lebah ditemukan di India. (in)
