The pygmy canopy honey. On an enormous mahogany tree 50 metres high, the honey-hunter perched on the trunk passes a branch with dexterity. The pygmies are excellent climbers, athletes of the forest who accomplish feats every day in harvesting the honey. Likouala, Congo

The Banas were beekeepers well before becoming farmers ten years ago. Ownership of the trees bearing the hives predates land ownership and it is passed down by inheritance. So, on the land of Oïta’s concession, there is a tree holding a hive but Oïta owns neither one nor the other and in no case can he cut this tree down without the hive owner’s permission.

Ochre in the Bruoux mines (Gargas). The colorful cliffs of the Pays d'Apt Luberon are made up of ochre sands, themselves composed of 80-90% sand and 10-20% ochre. This very fine ochre is a mixture of a white clay, kaolinite, and iron hydroxide and oxide, which give the ochres their color. This coloring matter is used in the manufacture of paints, coatings and other whitewashes, as well as in many other industrial products. After extraction, the ochre sand is washed and the resulting ochre is dried before being sent to the factory for grinding, calcination and packaging. France
