Southern Rata is a sought after crop, but cos it isn't produced in Canty I can't tell you a price, although there are some outfits here that go to Westland to chase it.  How much did you produce?  All v exciting.  Re Ukraine honey production, when I google this depending on what page I view, one says that Russia are the 5th biggest honey producer.  Another says Ukraine is the 9 biggest world producer, followed by NZ.But sites do seem to agree that 2% of the Ukranian pop are beekeepers.  I also note that the av Ukranian wage is $525 p.w - don't know whether this is US$ or NZ$.  At $525 it's probably on par p.w. with a few NZ beekeepers!!!!</blockquote>
