Apis cerana indica
Indian Hive Bee — Certified Live Colony
Selectively bred from climate-resilient parent stock known for strong hygienic behavior, docile temperament, and high foraging activity across tropical and subtropical agro-climatic zones.
Ideal Applications: Open-field commercial crops, fruit orchards, oilseed farms, spice plantations, and sustainable apiary establishment.
Key Advantages: High tolerance to Varroa mites via natural grooming; active foraging in lower ambient temperatures and overcast skies; low maintenance input.

Trigona / Tetragonula iridipennis
Stingless Bee Bio-Colony
100% sting-free, docility-tested pollination engineered specifically for protected cultivation, polyhouses, greenhouse crops, urban farming, and medicinal pot-honey harvesting.
Ideal Applications: Polyhouses, net-houses, covered greenhouses, soft fruit crops (strawberries, melons), urban terrace apiaries, and agritourism farms.
Key Advantages: Zero stings make them completely safe around farm labor; localized flight mechanics prevent fatal collisions with greenhouse glazing; produces rare, highly prized medicinal honey.
