Reminds me of the airmiles issue with imported goods/food.
Nowhere in the price to UK beekeepers is built in the downstream cost of bringing in non-UK bees which are potential diseased, pest-carrying and poorly acclimatised, let along the hidden pollution 'cost' of the airmiles they travel.
Anyone care to estimate the extra cost?
Reminds me of the length of "a piece of string" !
