Determination of Physical-chemical Parameters in Bee Products: A Preliminary Investigation from Africa’s Most Renewed Bee Village in Tanzania

Aim: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the determination physical-chemical parameters in bee products: a preliminary investigation from Africa’s most renewed village Tanzania; specifically, presents findings an inquiry that examined pesticide contamination products Kijiji cha Nyuki located Tanzania. measured levels honey harvested selected apiaries.
 Material and Methods: A mixed methods approach adopted for collected data both primary secondary were using physical observation survey, interviews, questionnaires, purposive random sampling techniques used select total 104 participants who taken as sample universal populations. Qualitative quantitative analyzed IBM Statistical Package Social Sciences (SPSS) Computer Programme version 25, where statistics aspect determined results obtained questionnaires laboratory experiments. Collected samples at TBS & SGS laboratories.
 Results: show all studied areas met quality assurance guidelines stipulated by ministry natural resources tourism suggesting moisture content should not exceed 21%. pH test showed Egypt apiaries had higher 4.3 low 3.54 implying falls within applicable range. Test Hydroxylmethly furfural mg/kg discovered average 13.65 4 out 5, with 107.13 HMF Egypt. Suggesting exception TZS 851:2006 standards national’s 40mg/kg furfural. Finally, reducing sugar inverted % m/m, five per Tanzania Bureau Statistics (TBS) found maximum 68.91 m/m 64.4 minimum. amount physical-mechanical contaminations identified exemption poses no risk consumers.
 Contribution Policy Implication: This recommends interventions among farmers beekeepers on safe use pesticides, good hygienic handling, storage practices. It has contributed understanding how regulations outlining insecticides is being implemented, current economic condition farms. calls policymakers rethink ways engaging beekeepers, have ongoing discussion concerned stakeholders about model could be enhance pesticides regulation
