Warning About Pollen Mixture in Chestnut Honey

Due to climate change, forest rose pollen has been detected in chestnut honey. Pollen analysis is important. Prof. Dr. Meral Kekeçoğlu, Director of the Beekeeping Research Development and Application Center at Düzce University, stated that they have observed the mixing of forest rose pollens into chestnut honey, which has seen a decrease in yield due to climate change, and warned consumers to consume honey that has undergone pollen analysis. Kekeçoğlu mentioned that they have observed the negative effects of climate change on beekeeping as a result of their inspections conducted in production areas across Turkey this year.
