Hi All,
Many thanks to the people who commented on HACCP - it looks like all the beekeeeprs are going to have to get it here, wether large or small. The big problem is the costs - around 30,000 Cyprus pounds (50,000 Euro) for an outfit of my size - 500 hives. I don't know where they expect us to find this sort of cash and when we can expect to see a return on this investment. In Finland are there any grants from the EU to help with upgrading to HACCP standard? Our government is vary vague about everything concerning grants and subsidies that assist business/farming.
Best regards
Roger White
