    Explanation:

    About Bonphool brand

    • The peak season for collection of Sunderban honey obtained from the nectar of the mangrove plants is begings in March and ends in the first week of June.
    • Unlike the traditional practice of collecting honey, where those who risk their lives by venturing into the forest do not get much in return, the members of the cooperative are hopeful that they will be able to earn Rs. 20,000 a month.
    • ?Maulis (honey collectors), as they are called in Bengali, often risk their lives in the peak season to collect honey, armed with nothing but a prayer to Bon Bibi ( the Forest Goddess). Going by the official estimates, at least five to six of these honey collectors (official figures) are killed by tigers every year.
