Honey producers in Aydın demand a minimum price for honey due to rising costs and the need to maintain quality standards. Ayhan Özdemir, President of the Aydın Beekeepers Association, stated that the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry or the President should announce a minimum price for honey.

Özdemir noted that last year honey sold for 5,500 lira, while expenses increased by at least 50%. He emphasized that a minimum price is important for producers to plan their production and suggested separate minimum prices for flower honey and pine honey.
