This supplements a highly variable local production. The wax is used largely in candle manufacture. Import of honey is only about 5 tonnes annually.สาระสังเขป: (2) Any serious attempt to expand local beeswax production would need to be based on the Italian bee, rather than the indigenous bees, and a market would have to be found for from 300 to 600 tonnes annually of honey which would arise along with the production of 20 tonnes of beeswax. Such an industry would gross between 2 million and 4 million baht per year.สาระสังเขป: (3) Evidence is presented that this may be a not-too-formidable task and that the venture could be commercially viable. A pilot apiary would permit a firmer commercial assessment and indicate whether an ecologic survey of the Thai environment is worth-while.สาระสังเขป: (4) Recent, as-yet-unconfirmed, reports indicate that the accidental introduction of an African species of honey bee into South America, is upsetting apiculture there and that the unwanted bee is spreading to North America. In the longer term, this could change the pattern of world trade in honey and beeswax and could be to Thailand's advantage. Authors
