[QUOTE="John B, post: 4326, member: 207"] I am going to conference and will definitely be keeping my ears open. I have been thinking a lot about state of the industry and it is my belief that things are probably as bad as they have ever been in the last 50 years. I have seen poor prices for honey before and at least once they were probably worse than they are now but add in overstocking , resistant varoa and rapidly falling manuka prices gives a pretty depressing picture. The disconnect between the reality that beekeepers are facing and the hype coming from the marketing side of the industry is unbelievable. I do expect things to get better and this could happen quite rapidly , all we need is something like fake honey to be forced off the world market.It's a matter of when and how many of us will be left.

What type of honey is New Zealand famous for?
