[QUOTE="LQB Apiary, post: 13745, member: 248"] So with the AFB on the news last night and after hearing of the issue there via the grapevine (beekeeper scuttlebutt?) I wonder if there's been further developments. I mean apart from some news items blaming hobbyists, which is a bit on the nose since trucking 🚛 🐝 🐝 🐝 routes changed in the recent past 🧐 There's been far less scout bees about and local petrol station has got tons of bees hanging about their lights cos those passing thru... Unfortunate it got so bad so quick but good opportunity to test any honey coming through? I see the DNA test is being pushed as definitive test now so hopefully that improves compliance.

Verification
What type of honey is New Zealand famous for?
