[QUOTE="frazzledfozzle, post: 3154, member: 57"] I don’t really get that ? we pay for varroa treatments and hiveware and the company supplying make a profit. as for professional legal requirements those were non existent a few short years ago and The world still turned without them. when this whole idea of the commodity levy came up and a survey was done about what research beekeepers would like to see money spent on it made my blood run cold. there were all sorts of things wanted but hardly anyone wanted to spend money on marketing and getting honey sold. I don’t want our hard earned money being forced off us under the pretext of a research levy and being handed out to others to research stuff that doesnt help get honey sold. If beekeepers can’t sell their honey they are stuffed plain and simple. [/QUOTE]

What type of honey is New Zealand famous for?
