Apiculture refers to the practice of rearing honeybees to produce honey and wax. The method involves the commercial breeding of bees in the apiary(ies), which is a space where numerous beehives can be housed. Apiaries are typically built in places with enough bee pastures, like those with flowering plants. The growth of the U.S. Apiculture market is influenced by several factors, including the rise in the applications of apiculture products in various end-use industries, the increase in demand for modern beekeeping and the growing need for healthier ingredients in the food industry. Some of the critical by-products which are sold through direct or indirect channels include beeswax, propolis, live bees, bee pollen, honey, venom, royal jelly and others. Furthermore, honey types such as clover honey, wildflower honey and melipona honey provide great marketable opportunities. The market for apiculture is supported by the government through various programs. Additionally, rising investments in research and development activities supporting the growing movement of the shift toward alternative sweeteners and nutraceuticals made from sustainable products provide a strong impetus to the U.S Apiculture Industry outlook for the forecast period of 2022-2027.

U.S Apiculture Market Segment Analysis - by Application

The U.S Apiculture Market based on the application can be further segmented into Food and Beverages, Medical, Cosmetics, Agriculture, Military, Chemicals and Paints and Others. Food and Beverages held a dominant market share in the year 2021. Honey is a great source of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, calcium and antioxidants.

U.S Apiculture Market Drivers

Growing Consumption of Apicultural Products as an Influential Ingredient in Cosmetics and Personal Care Industry has Allowed Market Expansion:

Alternative medicine, which employs natural biologically active substances obtained from bee products, is getting more and more attention. Bee products have been used not only in treatment but also for skin care as ingredients for cosmetics. Numerous studies have also proved the effect of bee products on the skin and the use of honey, propolis, bee pollen and bee venom in wound healing highlights their curative value. Each bee product possesses specific active substances which determine its use for various skin problems. Honey, propolis, bee pollen, bee bread, beeswax and bee venom are bee products that are used for medicinal purposes and cosmetic production. Additionally, royal jelly as a by-product offers immense medicinal benefits. Furthermore, the American Academy of Dermatology Association claims that acne affects nearly 50 million Americans each year and has been regarded as the most common skin condition in the states. The usage of bee-venom has been widely accredited in solving the current crisis of acne, as the said input inhibits toll-like receptors (TLR2) and CD14 expression in tissues, which can act as a pharmaceutical alternative for acne.

Rising Awareness and Options to Adopt for Natural Sugar Substitutes Augments Market Growth:

Consumers within the U.S. widely substitute ordinary sugar with honey in commonly consumed food products such as pieces of bread, cereals and others. Furthermore, honey is attributed to a higher shelf-life and its chemical structure remains buoyant over a period of time. . Furthermore, honey benefits from its status as a natural ingredient. As per the Food Dive article in 2019, sales within the U.S. for honey have soared in the past five years, while those for sugar have slumped. U.S. Sugar sales dropped by nearly 10-12%, although holding popularity, but sales of honey have soared nearly 50-55%. The growing cases of diabetes along with cardiovascular diseases fueled by awareness of COVID-19 immune boost make the demand proposition of apiculture products such as honey immense. CDC National Diabetes Statistics Report in 2020 predicts that nearly 10.5% of the entire population, or 34.5 million people are diabetic. Moreover, American Diabetic Association predicts that nearly 1.5 million new cases of diabetes are and will be diagnosed each year. Owing to such trends, the market for apiculture will be positively benefitted.

U.S Apiculture Market Challenge

A Rapid Decrease in the Number Of Managed Bee Colonies/ Hives Hampers Current and Future Estimations of Honey and other Apiculture bi-products:

The number of colonies/hives within the U.S. apiary(ies) has substantially gone down over the period of three-four years. Beekeepers across the United States lost 45.5% of their managed honeybee colonies from April 2020 to April 2021, according to preliminary results of the 15th annual nationwide survey conducted by the nonprofit Bee Informed Partnership (BIP) in 2021. Furthermore, beekeepers have continued to report a loss in the efficacy of market-available solutions. For example, a product that showed an efficacy of 90% removal of mites, now fails to provide an efficacy of 10%. Thereby, acting as a critical growth dampener in the U.S. Moreover, climate change acts as a rudimentary challenge for the market and extreme chilly conditions may result in loss of yield. Further, urbanization has eliminated the natural habitat and fauna of bees, such as a reduction in the number of nectar-bearing flowers. Owing to such reasons, the market demand will be challenged in the projected period.
