In the Lice district of Diyarbakır, seasonal rainfall has doubled honey production per hive from 10 kilograms to 20 kilograms. The number of migratory beekeepers in the area has increased to 37, and producers are optimistic about the ongoing harvest, which is expected to last until the end of October.

The improved vegetation in Lice, thanks to winter snow and spring rains, has led to a greater variety of flowers, sustaining plant life through the summer. Beekeepers from various regions are enjoying abundant food sources for their bees in the hives they set up in the plains and plateaus. After previous years of drought that limited flowering and reduced yields, this year has brought a bountiful season for honey producers.
