Countries of origin of honey must be stated on the packaging. The proportion of honey from each country will also have to be stated.
There will also be new rules for juices and jams in the future. In the future, at least 450 grams of fruit must be used for one kilogram of jam. At the end of last year, Federal Agriculture Minister Cem Özdemir raised another question: How should the shelf life of bee products be handled? He called for these dates to be abolished for rice, tea and honey.
