The most common are acacia and wildflower honey, followed by chestnut, orange, linden and honeydew honey, but there are also <strong>many other varieties <\/strong>from aromatic plants such as <strong>lavender<\/strong>, rosemary and <strong>arbutus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The product, the <strong>epitome of sweetness<\/strong>, known for its <strong>extraordinary beneficial properties<\/strong> ranging from <strong>immune system protection <\/strong>to<strong> skin<\/strong> care, is now in severe crisis. <\/p>\n\n<p>We had a <strong>nice chat<\/strong> with Lorena from <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/azienda\/rera-d-minot\/\">R&#8217;era &#8216;D Minot<\/a> to explore the topics of<strong>climate change impacts<\/strong>, sustainable practices, <strong>bee health<\/strong>, and strategies to improve <strong>honey production<\/strong> and quality. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The paradox of Italian honey: low production and difficult sales<\/h2>\n\n<p>First of all, let us consider that <strong>honey<\/strong>, in the past 10 years, <strong>has reduced its production by 75%<\/strong>. A very disturbing figure, needless to turn around.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, the big problem for Italian honey is <strong>sales<\/strong>, especially <strong>wholesale<\/strong>, which is the <strong>basic economy<\/strong> for honey companies.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-lg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_4232-1400x875.jpg\" alt=\"R'era 'd Minot - at work\" class=\"wp-image-182730\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_4232-1400x875.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_4232-900x563.jpg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_4232-550x344.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">At Work: R&#8217;era &#8216;D Minot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>The <strong>sad reality<\/strong> is that the <strong>consumption of Italian honey has decreased<\/strong> significantly because it <strong>costs significantly more<\/strong> compared to foreign honey. <\/p>\n\n<p>A jar of Italian honey ranges in <strong>price<\/strong> from approximately 5.00 \u20ac to 7.00 \u20ac while that which arrives from <strong>Eastern Europe <\/strong>and <strong>China<\/strong> ranges from 1.80 \u20ac to 2.00 \u20ac at the most, which is why <strong>foreign honeys are preferred<\/strong>, but they are of a different quality, if one can speak of quality.<\/p>\n\n<p>Even the <strong>big Italian brands<\/strong> that just have to pot, prefer the foreign one for a mere <strong>matter of cost and benefit<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transparent labeling: the battle of trade associations and product protection bodies<\/h2>\n\n<p>Honey labeling <strong>in Italy is different from other food sectors<\/strong> that require a<strong> certified supply chain<\/strong>: currently, under the current legislature, it is sufficient to write whether the product is from the European Union or not. <\/p>\n\n<p>Unfortunately, in this way, even <strong>the most attentive consumer<\/strong> is convinced that they are buying an Italian honey when in fact they are often just honeys &#8220;potted&#8221; in Italy but <strong>produced elsewhere<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-lg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_0542-1400x875.jpg\" alt=\"R'era 'd Minot - bees\" class=\"wp-image-182720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_0542-1400x875.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_0542-900x563.jpg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSC_0542-550x344.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>There are <strong>important differences<\/strong> with foreign countries: a <strong>honey produced in Italy<\/strong> is subjected to <strong>much stricter controls <\/strong>than in other countries, for example regarding <strong>antibiotics<\/strong> and bee feeding. <\/p>\n\n<p>Choosing to <strong>buy Italian honey <\/strong>means buying a <strong>higher quality product<\/strong>. The battle of those who protect the industry is precisely to empower consumers to make <strong>informed choices<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bee health: major pest and disease threats<\/h2>\n\n<p>The main problem for several years has been <strong>varroa<\/strong>. It is a <strong>very aggressive parasitic mite<\/strong> from China that attaches itself like <strong>a tick <\/strong>to bees and sucks out their hemolymph, a substance that circulates within the bees&#8217; bodies and makes it possible for them to survive, killing them or <strong>making them too weak<\/strong> to carry out their <strong>productive activities<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>The female mite enters the brood cells of bees and <strong>lays eggs after the cells are operculated<\/strong>, developing along with the bees and potentially <strong>transmitting viral agents<\/strong>, with the risk that a heavy infestation could lead to the death of the entire hive.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reducing varroa infestation: solutions and impacts<\/h3>\n\n<p>When a family is overrun by this mite, unfortunately, they <strong>die within the month<\/strong>. We cannot eliminate it, but <strong>the risks of contamination can be lowered <\/strong>through <strong>two interventions<\/strong>: medicated strips and <strong>brood blocking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The medicated strips<\/h4>\n\n<p>Medicated strips are <strong>veterinary medicines <\/strong>that attack the parasite. The treatment is quite simple and consists of using a pair of strips per hive by hanging <strong>each strip between two combs of honey stocks<\/strong>. The problem is that it is insecticide so the bees themselves also suffer.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The brood block <\/h4>\n\n<p>The brood block technique is <strong>among the most widely used by beekeepers<\/strong>, especially in combination with the <strong>use of oxalic acid<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-lg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/alveare-1400x875.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-264370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/alveare-1400x875.jpeg 1400w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/alveare-900x563.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/alveare-550x344.jpeg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>This organic acid is <strong>one of the most effective treatments<\/strong> against varroa, but it works only on foretic varroa, i.e., those <strong>found on adult bees<\/strong>, and cannot eliminate varroa inside closed cells. <\/p>\n\n<p>Brood blocking is a <strong>very effective and simple technique to perform<\/strong>, so much so that it is already taught in <strong>beginner beekeeper<\/strong> courses, offering a useful tool even for those <strong>new to beekeeping<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>To achieve this blockage, it is necessary to make the queen<strong> for about 20 days stop laying <\/strong>by using <strong>special cages<\/strong> to confine the queen and prevent her from laying.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The role of technology in beekeeping <\/h2>\n\n<p>One of the biggest innovations of the last decade is <strong>beehive scales<\/strong>. These devices are <strong>particularly useful<\/strong> for nomadic beekeepers, allowing them to monitor bees without having to <strong>physically visit<\/strong> the apiary every week.<\/p>\n\n<p>The hive scales can be used on <strong>up to four hives<\/strong> and provide <strong>crucial information <\/strong>such as the amount of food consumed by the bees, honey production, and <strong>general colony activity<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-lg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Arnia-campo-girasole-1-1400x875.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-264362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Arnia-campo-girasole-1-1400x875.jpeg 1400w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Arnia-campo-girasole-1-900x563.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Arnia-campo-girasole-1-550x344.jpeg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>This data allows beekeepers to know if the bees are working, if they need <strong>feeding<\/strong>, or if there are problems that need <strong>immediate attention<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>There are <strong>other emerging technologies <\/strong>that help beekeeping such as <strong>environmental sensors<\/strong>, which are devices that <strong>monitor temperature<\/strong> and humidity inside the hive, providing real-time data, and <strong>GPS tracking systems<\/strong>, used to monitor hives during transport. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking ahead to tomorrow: prospects and concerns <\/h2>\n\n<p>Italian beekeeping is expected to see a <strong>recovery in about two decades<\/strong> while the next five are likely to see a <strong>decrease in production<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>Bees require a mild spring with some rain and temperatures above 18 degrees to forage effectively. <strong>Spring frosts<\/strong> and <strong>prolonged droughts<\/strong> create <strong>unfavorable conditions<\/strong>, making it difficult for them to collect pollen and nectar, which also require the availability of water. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-lg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Ape-1-1400x875.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-264366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Ape-1-1400x875.jpeg 1400w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Ape-1-900x563.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Ape-1-550x344.jpeg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>These <strong>adverse weather conditions<\/strong> put a strain on bees, compromising their ability to produce and the overall health of the colonies. For this reason, beekeepers are forced to <strong>feed bees even during the spring and summer periods<\/strong> because, without supplemental feeding, they would not be able to survive.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strategies to combat the crisis: diversification and consumer education <\/h2>\n\n<p>To meet these challenges, there are those like R&#8217;era &#8216;D Minot who are <strong>looking at diversification<\/strong> as a solution. The goal is to produce a wider and more <strong>sought-after variety<\/strong> of <strong>specialty honeys<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Diversification can help mitigate risks associated with climate change and <strong>meet a market demand<\/strong> that is increasingly interested in unique, <strong>high-quality<\/strong> products.<\/p>\n\n<p>Consumers should be encouraged to <strong>visit local farms <\/strong>and <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.langhe.net\/produttore\/reradminot\/\">buy directly from small producers<\/a>, thus ensuring <strong>product quality <\/strong>and supporting the <strong>local
