Changes in the beekeeping sector in Poland in the years 2004 to 2015 with particular focus on regional differences are discussed. The article inform about the production and specifics of sale, prices of honey in purchasing centers and on retail and wholesale markets is discussed. The foreign trade of honey in respect of its value and volume is reviewed, and honey consumption per household and per capita is characterized. INTRODUCTION Poland’s accession to the EU in 2004 contributed to more dynamic development of the beekeeping sector. Because of opportunities of getting support under national beekeep- ing schemes [EC 2013a], integration of bee-keepers, as well as standing education of the latter, bee-keepers undertook formal and administrative steps in order to modernize and upgrade their apiaries, including the production of honey and other apiary products. China is the world’s leader in honey production, it produces approx. 27% of the global volume, i.e. more than 450 Kt1 in 2013. China is followed by the EU, which accounts for approx. 11-13% of the global honey output (more than 204-220 Kt in the period 2010-2013). The 2013 honey-producing leaders in the EU included Spain (30.6 Kt), Romania (26.6 Kt), Hungary (18.5 Kt), Germany (15.7 Kt) and Poland (15.4 Kt). Due to a growing role and position of Poland in honey production and trade in the EU, the article highlights changes which have been undergoing in the production, supply and international trade, as well as in honey prices (direct, wholesale and retail); the focus is also put on its distribution and household consumption in the period 2004-2015. MATERIAL AND METHODS The objective of this paper is to show changes in the honey market in Poland in the years 2004-2015, with particular account for the differences between the regions. The article 1 Kt – thousand tonnes. 98 AGNIESZKA BOROWSKA takes account of honey production and sales characteristics, wholesale, retail and buying- in prices; the author also elaborates on the international trade in honey – its value and volume, and describes its household and per capita consumption.The secondary sources of information, including the statistical yearbooks issued by the Central Statistical Of- fice (CSO), the reports and studies of S. Pieniążek Research Institute of Pomology and Floriculture in Skierniewice Division of Apiculture in Puławy, the materials of the Polish Association of Beekeepers, and the INTRASTAT 2016, FAOSTAT 2016. The compara- tive and descriptive methods have been applied in the analysis of the research problem. PRODUCTION OF HONEY IN POLAND IN THE YEARS 2010 TO 2015 According to FAOSTAT, in 2013 the world production of honey stood at close to 1 664 thousand tonnes with the increase of almost 1/3 over the two decades. 46% of pro- duction volume concentrated primarily in Asia where from 1990 the production grew by more than a half up to 737.5 Kt and especially in China where the production amounted to 466.3 thousand tonnes i.e. about 29% of the global production volume [Borowska 2011b]. The share of both continental Americas in the production of honey dropped (to about 20 %), the similar level of about 22 to 24% was maintained in Europe, while Ukraine (73 Kt) and Russia (68 Kt) together with production of 38.7% of the European honey (over 142 Kt) were the leaders (tab. 1.).

Taking into considera- tion the 30 largest honey producers in the world, the leading China was followed by the beekeepers from Turkey (94 Kt), Argentina (80 Kt), USA (67 Kt), India (61 Kt), Mexico (57 Kt), Ethiopia (45 Kt), Brazil (35 Kt), Iran (44 Kt), and Poland, with the production of about 12-14 Kt, took 25 or 30th position (tab. 1.). In Poland honey was the main source of income for the beekeepers. Other bee products, such as the multiflower honey, bee venom, beeswax, propolis, pollen and bee bread was acquired in small amounts [Cichoń, Wilde 1996]. The year 2015 was favorable for the Polish beekeepers who harvested over 72% (i.e. 9.2 Kt) more honey than in the previous year with over 22 thousand tonne production. In terms of honey production years 2005, 2012 and 2014 of the last decade were unfavorable due to poor atmospheric conditions prevailing during the growth season and nectar and pollen harvest. The honey production in Poland was variable not only depending on the year but also was depended on province (tab. 2.). Most honey was harvested by the beekeepers in the Lubelskie, Podkarpackie, Warmińsko-Mazurskie, Wielkopolskie and Dolnośląskie provinces, while the Podlaskie, Opolskie, Pomorskie and Śląskie provinces produced the smallest volumes of honey [Majewski 2010, Wilde 2016]. The good production results of the first four provinces only gave about 43 to 45% of the total volume of honey production in the country. Con- sidering the period of 2014-2015, the production, despite annual fluctuations, increased in all regions. In the period of 2004-2015 the growth recorded in respective provinces amounted to about 5% in the Dolnośląskie province, more than 120% in the Łódzkie and Table 3.

  • REGIONAL HONEYS in POLAND in 2010-2015 Agnieszka Borowska1 1Warsaw University of Life Sciences WULS – SGGW
    Proceedings of the 2018 International Conference "ECONOMIC SCIENCE FOR RURAL DEVELOPMENT" No 47 Jelgava, LLU ESAF, 9 11 May 2018, pp. 443-452 DOI 10.22616/ESRD.2018.051 REGIONAL HONEYS IN POLAND IN 2010-2015 Agnieszka Borowska1 1Warsaw University of Life Sciences WULS – SGGW Abstract: The situation of producers of five Polish regional honeys certified with the Protected Designation of Origin and the Protected Geographical Indication logos is shown. The specifics of production, distribution, prices and prospects for their presence on the Polish market is presented. Besides, attention is drawn to the structure of net prices (producers) and retail prices of such regional honeys, i.e. the Kurpie honey, the heather honey from Bory Dolnoslaskie forests, the Podkarpacki honeydew honey, the honey from Sejny county, and the Drahim honey. The study is a continuation of research initiated within the framework of research project N N112 05 72 34 of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and N N112 374540 of the National Science Centre. Regional honeys with PDO and PGI quality markings are a new phenomenon on the Polish market. For producers, they are a challenge in the production certification process according to the specification, thanks to which the PDO or PGI logo can be used on the honey packaging. Their sale mainly takes place within short distribution chains and demand exceeds supply. Consumers see a high-quality product in regional honey, and thus position it higher in relation to other honeys, which is why the interest is growing. Key words: regional honeys, PDO, PGI, production, prices JEL code: Q11 Introduction With Poland’s accession to the EU in 2004, both institutional and social actions were intensified with the aim to make Polish producers register their quality traditional and regional products as the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) and the Traditional Speciality Guaranteed (TSG).

  • The Nutritive Value of Honey - a Pure Natural Sweetener (From Billy Bee)
    The nutritive value of honey - a pure natural sweetener (from Billy Bee) http://www.billybee.com/en/infocentre/generalfacts.shtml Honey has more nutritious elements than refined sugar. It's a concentrated source of energy - quickly digested and readily absorbed - and contains no fat. Honey is pure because no other ingredients are added. But what puts honey first among sweeteners is its truly unique flavour, its look and natural character. A little goes a long way... Versatile and fat-free, honey makes other foods more tasty and pleasurable. From appetizers to dessert, honey enhances healthy cooking. Here are some quick and easy ideas. • On half a grapefruit bursting with Vitamin C. • On wholegrain toast (bagel, english muffin) • In plain, low-fat yogurt, fruit milk shakes or a mug of hot milk...a delicious way to increase calcium in the diet. • On crepes or bran waffles instead of butter or margarine. • Add a variety of fruits for a colourful plate full of vitamins and fibre! • As a glaze for carrots or squash. • In the preparation of vinaigrette and dressings for light salads. • For making marinades tenderly sweet, marinate lean cuts of meat, skinless chicken breast, fish, vegetables and even fruit. For a full listing of our recipes, please visit our recipe section. Mineral and vitamin content depend on floral sources Honey contains a variety of minerals and trace elements in small amounts (0.1% to 1.5%) depending on floral source and geographic origin. Studies have shown that the human body absorbs these minerals very well. Two tbsp (30ml) of honey contains 25mg of potassium.
