Honey exports during this period were down compared to the same period last fiscal year, when the country earned about US$2.4 million from around 1,600 tons of honey, an official at the livestock breeding and veterinary department of the ministry said.

The Southeast Asian country exports honey to countries including Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Germany and China, he added.
