The Korkusuz family in Siirt has transformed their beekeeping operations with government support, acquiring a trailer and beekeeping equipment to produce honey comfortably in the highlands of Bitlis and Van. Orhan Korkusuz (58), who has been beekeeping for 36 years, and his wife Ayşe (56) applied last year to the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry's Rural Development Investments Support Program. After approval, they received a 50% grant totaling 1,856,225 Turkish Lira for 300 hives with pollen traps, honey extraction equipment, a double honeycomb workstation, a honey settling tank, a multifunctional honey tank, a mobile solar energy system, a honey extraction tent, 300 feeders, and the trailer.
