There will be enough honey in Hungary this year. The honey production of about 10 thousand tons and reserves will cover the internal consumption despite the weaker results – Minister of Agriculture Nagy István told MTI.

The average honey yield of the last five years has been between 20 and 32 thousand tons, with a declining trend in recent years. The National Hungarian Beekeeping Association (OMME) expects an average of 14,000 tons of honey this year due to unfavorable weather conditions. (MTI)
