Crowd funding?Who is going to pay to licence them?
Association's step up to the plate? Universities?
Tricky to get central funding for anything thats seen as "anti-business" with current attitudes prevailing.

Realistically it's a few tens of thousands in research and peer reviewed studies, application dossier, a niche market containing plenty of individuals happy to make their own generic version which reduces sales plus other competing products and the inevitable 'the licenced version is so expensive' argument.Crowd funding?

costs a bit more than that. application fee is best part of £20k itself and unless someone writes the dossier for free, even a simple one is going to cost you upwards of £100k to author, once you have the research data. Once you have the labels, packaging and a few other essentials done, probably looking at £200k for a product that Joe Bloggs can knock up on the cheep. if you got a license then there are a lot of on-going commitments to maintain the license which cost as well. its the same argument as why no one has bothered licensing simple pure OA for sublimation and we have the ludicrous situation in the UKRealistically it's a few tens of thousands in research and peer reviewed studies, application dossier, a niche market containing plenty of individuals happy to make their own generic version which reduces sales plus other competing products and the inevitable 'the licenced version is so expensive' argument.
It's probably just not seen as worth the effort for the level of return, or the data suggests it's not efficacious enough to pass licencing.
Because it’s ‘armless?Just thinking why doesn’t BBKA have a research arm

Dear Dani I don't think I can cope with some of the subscribers on this forum because it is immediately obvious that some who are very abrasive , will not budge when it is proven that certain practices are doing the bees good.Who is going to pay to licence them?
Are you saying I'm ignorant. If you are then that wiould confirm absolutely that this and any other forum is nothing short of useless because forums are supposed to be beneficial -aren't they?.It's a good thing you don't write rubbish like that about specific UK cases as the ensuring libel cases would bankrupt you. But the forum would never let them stand so your are well protected from your own ignorance/prejudices.
HimI see Randy Oliver is paying close attention to that also because he is interested in proving why it seems the strips work for some but not for her.
There is an ignore button for that very purpose. If you put a poster on ignore then you won’t see their postsDear Dani I don't think I can cope with some of the subscribers on this forum
