[QUOTE="JohnF, post: 3284, member: 233"] In fairness, I dont believe its because beekeepers *feel* they should be paid more . . . its more that current production costs may be more than $4 or an amount that leaves a profit in there. Yes, and in the science session at the ApiNZ conference, one of the panel discussions will be on the science required to lift other NZ honeys out of the commodity market. Whether it be kanuka, rewarewa, tawari . . . what is needed to lift it out of the $4 per kilo area. I can hear a number of people saying 'marketing' . . .but what do you actually have to market? ie what science is needed behind it [/QUOTE]
