The physicochemical properties of the honey samples were studied in this experiment. Squeezed honey from A. dorsata and A. cerena indica were collected from experimental beehives placed across in Melghat region. Physico-chemical aspects like electrical conductivity, specific gravity, PH, glucose-fructose ratio, moisture content, total protein content, free acidity (formic acid), ash content, HMF value, and minerals were tested and all common characteristics of honey were present. A. dorsata honey has a higher protein content and glucose-fructose ratio than A. cerena indica honey. The higher values of electrical conductivity of honey from A. cerena were found. The findings and physicochemical properties of honey samples are match with the values of Food Safety and Standard Authority of India (FSSAI). According to the data acquired by comparing the two samples of honey, several physicochemical traits of A. dorsata are more valuable than that of A. cerena indica. They may vary according to the comb's location, floral supplies, water accessibility, environmental conditions, the weather, and other considerations. They might also change over time.
