Jointly funded through the Australian Government Future Drought Fund and Western Australia's Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, this program was designed to support and strengthen the beekeeping and northern horticulture industries.

Day 1: Strategic planning for your business
Day 2: Benchmarking and financial data driven decisions
Day 3: Innovation and planning for climate challenges
Day 4: Building personal and social resilience

In addition to attending the workshops, participants also received one-on-one business coaching to support the development of their own tailored Farm Business Resilience Plan.

KEEP THE BEES BUZZING
Keep the Bees Buzzing is a Bee Industry Council of WA (BICWA) initiative, funded by the Agriculture Produce Commission (APC), to boost biosecurity in Western Australia’s beekeeping sector.
​
The project focuses on increasing awareness and use of alcohol wash testing – a vital tool in detecting Varroa Mite, one of the biggest threats to bees. Through targeted education and resources, the program will help beekeepers, equipment suppliers, and the wider community understand best-practice biosecurity, the Beekeeping Code of Practice, and the importance of pest and disease reporting.
​
This work supports stronger industry compliance, more beekeeper registrations, and improved preparedness, while also building on BICWA’s broader efforts in research, hive tracking, economic analysis, and strategies to keep WA Varroa Mite free.
