[QUOTE="Maggie, post: 10822, member: 71"] Is that an intentional typo?! Somehow the honey mountain in peoples' sheds needs to be moved. The amount of hives that could potentially be abandoned in downsizing another problem. Inducing younger generations to eat honey another issue. Some verification on the health benefits of eating NZ honey and the use of other hive products could be useful. I have noticed since covid, the UK NHS are trying to decrease the amount of patients in waiting rooms and the use of antibiotics, and they are advocating the medical benefits of honey. Here's just one of the UK articles from the British Medical Journal [URL="https://www.bmj.com/company/newsroom/honey-better-than-usual-care-for-easing-respiratory-symptoms-especially-cough/"]Honey better than usual care for easing respiratory symptoms, especially cough | BMJ[/URL] In the Sth Is (pre varroa) there were enormous beekeeping meetings, over one hundred at a time, to get beekeepers to think about how they would manage with varroa (hive numbers, increased costs, requeening, extra labour etc). Beekeepers who had dealt with varroa were the main speakers, sometimes there was a speaker from MPI, Mark Goodwin, or an accountant. There was one meeting at the NZ Institute of Management, and that was all about financial considerations, and what they preached was good management. The outfits that attended these meetings and knew how to adjust their outfits accordingly once varroa exhibited in the Sth Is are still viable outfits today.
