Especially in Germany they can achieve quite high prices. Honeydew is a excretion of plant sucking insects with a high sugar content.

Smaller molecules like water and sugars are in some aphids filtered through membranes just after intake and transported directly to the end of the digestive tract.

  • Modelling Non-Timber Forest Products for Forest Management Planning in Europe
    Current Forestry Reports (2020) 6:309–322 https://doi.org/10.1007/s40725-020-00130-7 FOREST POLICY, ECONOMICS AND SOCIAL RESEARCH (A TOPPINEN, SECTION EDITOR) Modelling Non-timber Forest Products for Forest Management Planning in Europe Jari Miina1 & Mikko Kurttila1 & Rafael Calama2 & Sergio de-Miguel3,4 & Timo Pukkala5 Accepted: 13 August 2020 / Published online: 9 October 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Purpose of Review The increased popularity and commercial use of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) calls for the develop- ment of models for NTFPs to include their predicted yields in forest management planning and to evaluate the potential of multi- functional forest management. This study assesses and discusses the current state of the art and trends in NTFP yield modelling in Europe and the integration of the models in multi-functional forest management planning at different spatial scales. Recent Findings Climate-sensitive empirical yield models already exist not only for a variety of NTFPs that are economically important to forest owners (e.g. cork and pine nuts) but also for wild-gathered berries and mushrooms, the harvesting of which cannot be controlled by the forest landowner in all European countries. Several studies on multi-functional forest management planning consider the economic profitability of the joint production of timber and NTFP. Harvesting NTFPs can create signif- icant additional incomes for forest owners, compared with timber production only. However, maximizing the economic returns from the joint production of timber and NTFPs often calls for changes in forest management practices. Summary Continued efforts in modelling and predicting the yields of NTFPs have enabled forest managers to further expand the analyses of multi-functional forest planning and management in Europe.

It is prone to adulterants caused by humans that manipulate the quality of honey. Although honey consumption has remarkably increased in the last few years all around the world, the safety of honey is not assessed and monitored regularly.

  • Some Forest Trees for Honeydew Honey Production in Turkey
    СИБИРСКИЙ ЛЕСНОЙ ЖУРНАЛ. 2017. № 4. С. 101–110 UDC 638.165.81:595.75:582.475.4 SOME FOREST TREES FOR HONEYDEW HONEY PRODUCTION IN TURKEY S. Ünal, S. Ayan, M. Karadeniz, E. N. Yer Kastamonu University Kuzeykent mh. Org. Atilla Ateş Paşa cd., Kastamonu, 37100 Turkey E-mails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received 25.01.2016 Honey is an important source of nutrients and energy and an effective remedy against various human diseases. Honeydew honey is produced from honeydew of phloem-feeders that honeybees gather. In this study, we focused on honeydew producers and diversity of host tree species which are involved in honeydew production in Turkey. A total of 24 honeydew producers by host tree species are identified in Turkey. Of these, 13 coniferous trees and 11 deciduous trees. The main honeydew producer in Turkey is a scale insect, Marchalina hellenica Gennadius (Hemiptera: Margarodidae) living mainly on pines (Turkish red pine, Aleppo pine, and rarely on stone pine, Anatolian black pine and Scots pine). Honeydew producer insects can be treated as serious pests of conifer and broadleaf trees. The aphids and the scale insects such as Ceroplastes floridensis, Cinara cedri, C. laportei, Eulachnus rileyi, Icerya purchase, Kermes vermilio, Lichtensia viburni and Saissetia oleae are known as pests in several European, Asian and African countries. Despite their potential harm to their host plants, insect species producing honeydew play an important role in honey production in Turkey. Turkish honey production is exported to EU countries and, furthermore beekeeping is an important part of agricultural sector in Turkey.

  • The Treasures of the Russian Taiga — from the Siberian Tiger
    SIBERIAN TIGER THE TREASURES OF THE RUSSIAN TAIGA — FROM THE SIBERIAN TIGER Russian forests offer a bounty of natural food and medicinal products. Both local villagers and wild animals depend on the mushrooms, berries, nuts, honey and medical plants that grow there. This booklet describes how wise use of non- timber forest resources helps to protect the ‘home’ of the Siberian tiger and to promote sustainable forest management in Russia. As a part of International Climate Initiative, the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) and KfW Development Bank sponsor collaborative projects by WWF Russia and WWF Germany that are implemented in the Russian Far East for the protection of Korean pine forests and Siberian tiger habitat. © Gennadiy Pavlishin illustrator The Siberian tiger is a rare Despite its might, this powerful animal endangered predator. It is the largest is very vulnerable. One of the greatest of five existing tiger subspecies and threats to its survival is the degradation the only one that lives in snow. of coniferous-broadleaved forests, the ‘home’ of the tiger. These forests play an essential role in preserving the unique biodiversity The 2005 inventory have of the Sikhote-Alin Mountains and shown that there are supporting its climatic and water about 450 Siberian tigers regimes. Unfortunately, they are often left in the wild in the subjected to degradative, unsustainable Russian Far East. logging practices. The most valuable areas of coniferous- broadleaved forests have been given a status of ‘nut harvesting zones’. Such zones preserve the treasures of the Korean pine forests and are used for harvesting edible and medical plants and hunting fur-bearing animals.

Review on Honey Adulteration and Detection of Adulterants in Honey. International Journal of Gastroenterology . Vol. 4, No. 1, 2019, pp. 1-6. doi: 10.11648/j.ijg.20200401.11 Received : November 7, 2019; Accepted : December 30, 2019; Published : January 8, 2020 Abstract: Honey is defined as the natural sweet substance produced by honeybees. Honey consist mainly sugars but also contains some amounts of acids, phenolic contents, HMF (Hydroxyl Methyl Furfural), minerals and water. Honey adulteration is a global concern and developing countries are at higher risk associated with it due to lack of detection methods, awareness of people and policies. Honey adulteration occurs by direct addition of sucrose syrups that are produced from sugar beet, high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), maltose syrup or by adding industrial sugar (glucose and fructose). Adulterants can be classified as intentional, unintentional, metallic and microbial based on type of adulterants in honey. Nowadays honey is being adulterated in more sophisticated ways that more difficult to detection of adulterants in simple methods. This paper presents a detailed review of common honey adulterants in honey as well as different methods to detect the adulterants both qualitatively and quantitatively.
