Very interesting reading the companies involved particularly the mysterious “Midland Aparies”

That is tricky and a fast way to slight someone's name.
Where would bush honey pick up glyphosphate from?And a contract extractor told me they have tested all their honey. They found around 30% had detectable levels of glyphosate. What surprised them was it was not mostly in the field honey, but the bush honey. Opposite to what you might expect.
because honey really doesn't have a limit, 0.01ppm is the default limit for anything that doesn't have a set limit.The really crazy part is that the specified Japanese limit for flour, rye and buckwheat is 30ppm, but for honey is 0.01ppm
we have be bashing about a few theory's on that. i wonder if its to do with pine blocks being sprayed out before planting.What surprised them was it was not mostly in the field honey, but the bush honey.
i don't know what customers results are and could not tell you if i did.You guys are contract extractors also, is that your finding also? More glyphosate in bush honey?
One possible answer could be that there is a compound in a native species that mimics glyphosate in the tests, which until now hasn't been diagnosed.That's what they are wondering. They do not spray around their hives so it's somewhere in the environment but they don't know where.
