Despite the election in the USA the trade war with other countries continues. In the last week a number of new tariffs came in to effect on agricultural products.
In other news the honey harvest in Europe is down 40%. On top of that there is a threat of cheap imports from China, Mexico and Ukraine.
So why shouldn’t we buy the cheapest? Well, to be blunt – no bees – no harvest. So will you buy Manuka Honey from New Zealand?
Food production cannot be left to the cheapest wins. The ecosystem does not work on the basis of profits.
