[QUOTE="John B, post: 618, member: 207"] If Japan doesn't want roundup in honey then it should apply to their own honeys as well and maybe it does. There are a huge amount of regulations that are imposed on all sorts of industries in New Zealand to meet standards that often don't apply in the countries the product is going to. The same can be said for some products that are imported into New Zealand. For instance there are quite strict regulations for keeping pigs in New Zealand but imported pork does not have to meet those standards making it cheaper and our own product uncompetitive. Equivalency is important. [/QUOTE]
