Romanian beekeepers face increasing difficulties as cheap imported honey dominates the market

Romanian beekeepers face increasing difficulties as cheap imported honey dominates the market. While many struggle due to poor weather, low purchase prices, and market saturation, a certified organic beekeeper from Sovata, Ács József, had a notably successful year. Managing around 200 colonies, he achieved above-average yields and sees organic honey production as a potential solution for the struggling domestic sector. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Agriculture is reallocating support funds to assist farmers.
