Ethiopia: In 2015, the average honey and colony prices were 131 Ethiopian Birr (ETB)/kg (6.34 USD) and 667 ETB/colony (32.28 USD), respectively. [1] According to a local scientist (Holeta Bee Research Center (Ethiopia), the prices increased (2018) to 260 ETB/kg (9.45 USD) for honey and to 1,200 to 1,500 ETB (43.64 USD to 54.55 USD) for new colonies. The price for 1 kg of purified bees wax was 250-300 ETB (25-30 USD) in 2014. [2]
Indonesia: There is no official data regarding prices of honey bee products, but according to a local scientist (Universitas Padjadjaran; Indonesia), the price for 1 kg table honey is at around 200,000 Rupiahs (14.20 USD) (2018). Indonesian beekeepers often catch feral honey bee colonies to house them in hives. This may be the reason, while there is a lack of data regarding colony prices.
