About
This dataset offers a detailed view of honey production, demand, and supply across various American states between 1995 and 2021. It highlights the vital role of honey bees in pollination and honey creation, a natural product essential as their primary energy source. Beekeepers harvest the excess honey, which is crucial for both the bees' well-being and the success of beekeeping businesses. The data, sourced from the National Agricultural Statistics Service (USDA), provides insights into this significant agricultural sector.
