In Çüngüş, Diyarbakır, agricultural engineer Rahime Yıldırım Kurtoğlu started beekeeping with 200 hives to provide her children with natural honey after relocating due to her husband's job. Originally from Adıyaman, she began this venture to ensure her family has access to organic honey.

Çüngüş, nourished by the Euphrates River, offers a rich flora and suitable climate for beekeeping. With support from her farmer father and her education, Kurtoğlu strategically placed her 200 hives in rural areas, optimizing their locations for sunlight exposure while minimizing humidity and mold risks.
