So far, nationally formulated good beekeeping practices are unknown in '''Ethiopia''' and '''Indonesia'''. Nevertheless, there are efforts from several scientific institutions for applied and adaptive apicultural research which is the first step of development of a good beekeeping practice. In Ethiopia, the Holeta Bee Research Center (HBRC) is the main institution for apicultural research, but one center is not able to address every region in the country. <ref>Hailemichael, T. B.

-'''Indonesia''':In Indonesia, nationally formulated good beekeeping practices are '''unknown''' but literature promoting good beekeeping practices exist. Nevertheless, local beekeepers rely mostly on their experiences. PERHUTANI employed "field officers", who teach local beekeepers good beekeeping practices. Examples for existing literature: “Petunjuk Praktis Budidaya Lebah Madu (''Apis cerana'')/Beekeeping Practical Guideline (''Apis cerana'') ”  “Petunjuk Praktis Budidaya Lebah Madu (''Apis mellifera'')/Beekeeping Practical Guideline (''Apis mellifera'')” and “Petunjuk Praktis Peralatan Budidaya Lebah Madu (''Apis cerana'' and ''Apis mellifera'')/Practical Guideline for Beekeeping Tools (''Apis cerana'' and ''Apis mellifera'')”, all by PERHUTANI, “Rumah lebah" from Traditional to Modern Medicine”, by Hutagalung, and “Produk-produk Lebah Madu dan Hasil Olahannya/Honey bee products and their derivatives”, by Jaya (pers. communication with Universitas Padjadjaran, Indonesia).
