India becomes the world's second-largest honey exporter

Hot, possibly sticky, news: India becomes the world's second-largest honey exporter

Whether true or not, there's piece of cut comb in there too: 

The National Beekeeping and Honey Mission (NBHM) , a Central Sector Scheme, was launched under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan to promote scientific beekeeping and high-quality honey production.
This government-run scheme is being implemented through the National Bee Board (NBB) , with a total budget of ₹500 crore (FY 2020–21 to 2022–23).
This has now been extended for three more years (2023–24 to 2025–26) , and the remaining ₹370 crore will be used for this extension.

Does the UK have any similar programme, I wonder?
