BEE-OPTECH4Honey

We would like to cordially invite you to a seminar on the 20th of November, where we will share the results of the XjenzaMalta-funded project ‘BEE-OPTECH4Honey’!

This project is all about analysing the quality of Maltese honey, and using AI and drone technology to identify ideal places for beekeepers to set up their apiaries in Malta.

Your attendance and participation in this seminar are of great importance to us! It will be held at the Juventutis Domus Sacra Familia, Żejtun, from 2pm to 7pm. Be there slightly early!
