    It should be noted LLS was formed 1⁄1⁄2014, so figures are shown only since LLS commenced operations. 2017⁄18 figures are for the part financial year up to the date of the Question With Notice request.
    While revenue varies from year to year based on seasonal conditions and related bee activity, the increase seen between 2016⁄17 and 2017⁄18 is largely due to the implementation of a standardised pricing system across all apiary sites on public land.
  2. LLS currently have 2,717 apiary sites under permit across the state.
