CRC for Honey Bee Products Honey Sample form

The CRC for Honey Bee Products is supporting the Australian Leptospermum honey industry by providing Five free honey tests per annum to beekeepers determining the viability of apiary sites for medicinal honey production. The testing will be undertaken by the University of the Sunshine Coast and shall provide a report of the parts per million DHA, HMF and MGO levels in the honeys.

If the five free tests are exceeded, or after June 2020 additional honeys will be charged at cost recovery rates.

Testing requires 30-100g of well mixed honey sample in clearly labelled containers with the sample name and beekeepers name on each container with the Sample Form included.
