[QUOTE="John B, post: 9914, member: 207"] Most of what Nick has written about was before my time and even the honey marketing authority was at a time when I was busy beekeeping but not really involved in the political side. My family used to export a lot of comb honey but even that had to be approved by a honey grader. On the local market we used to compete against honey that was subsidised by the seals levy that we had to pay. During the time of the HMA it was cheaper to buy hives than to make them . There have been good times and bad since the demise of the HMA but for me at least there of be a lot more good than bad. The current hard times are actually a bit nostalgic for me as they remind me of my my early years in beekeeping. [/QUOTE]
