As a kind of nourishing product loved by the public, honey has a wide audience in the dessert consumer market. However, the market is full of all kinds of propaganda and rumors and legends, coupled with the flood of fake honey, which has brought great trouble to the choice of the majority of honey friends.
As a niche group in agricultural production, bee farming and honey harvesting are not well understood by the majority of honey friends, which is also one of the factors that make it difficult for honey friends to choose. But here, we grasp the following principles, and it is no longer so difficult for honey friends to choose honey.
Clause. 1. Don't buy the soil honey that has a saying. One of the most common sayings is that pure natural earth honey is only harvested once a year. Such honey is not recommended to buy.
This is not to say that it is necessarily a lie or a fake honey, but that this statement is purely a marketing ploy to confuse the public.
Native honey is harvested only once a year, which is not wrong in most cases, but that does not mean that the honey is harvested by bees for a whole year. However, the collection ability of the soil bee is weak, and a year is in the season of the big stream of honey to collect a little honey, and the earth bee to harvest the full cover, the time required is relatively long, and after it is brewed once, often the big stream of honey has ended, and can not be picked a second time, so objectively, you can only pick once a year. As for why the soil honey does not collect water honey like the bees, it is just a matter of cost. Soil honey to collect water honey, the amount is small, and you can't pick the cover honey, if the water honey goes deep, you can't get much real honey that can be fake, so it is better to only pick the cover honey once and buy some money.
Clause. Second, don't buy soil honey that is too low. As mentioned earlier, the ability of soil honey to collect honey is limited, which also determines the relatively high cost of soil honey, there is a saying, a designated bee farm for breeding soil honey, the number can not be more than 100, because the flight radius of bees is so large, the number is too much, the bee farm is difficult to survive, and the amount of honey is also limited, to a box of annual harvest of 12 catties, this is a very strong group to achieve the output, a catty according to the dumping price of 50 to 60 yuan, the annual income is only more than 60,000 yuan. This still needs to be sold all to be done, not to mention, breeding bees also requires a cost, and there are no flowers in summer and winter, and bees need to be artificially fed to survive. Therefore, if the earth honey is too cheap, there is no way to stick to it.
Don't buy this, don't buy that, so how can you have honey to eat?
In fact, there are still procurement channels, and that is:
Clause. 1. Honest and reliable, trustworthy seller's honeycomb can be bought. But this honesty and reliability is verified by you in your own way, not by listening to propaganda and following trends.
Clause. Second, what you have seen harvested with your own eyes is the capped honey, and it is loaded for you on the spot, and this honey can be bought. When the capped honey is harvested, the beeswax on the surface of the cap must be peeled off to shake the honey, and the honey shaken out is very thick, and after flowing down, it is piled up layer by layer instead of flowing away, and this honey can be bought with confidence.
In short, the procurement of honey needs to be based on the principle of honesty and reliability, rather than listening to propaganda or live broadcasts, and passively choose.
