Very interesting - thanks to the recent EU case about GM contamination, any honey found to be contaminated can't be sold - so where does that put beekeepers within range of the GM frankencrap crop trial recently announced for next year at Rothamstead (and other trials at Leeds Uni and the John Innes Centre)?
So what about imported honey,will we be waving goodbye to most of that as well.
cant believe they just store it outside like that. is that normal practice? do the british bee farmers store their honey outside to? or is it just the quality of the honey rouse import is so poor it is not worth storing inside?
just look at the AFB reports for the last 10 years and that should tell you.....they do...and they leak
Cheers Brosville, got it on listen again, most informative...
....most residues are not from crops but from substances used by bee keepers...
....not exactly surprising really.
Authorised GM crops is a bit vague because AFAIK only GM crops for non human consumption are grown in the EU, animal feeds, industrial uses and so on. GM maize is grown here and it is supposed to be made clear...but....
