Hi all
Best regard @ctrl-alt-nwo
The ongoing struggle between Australian and New Zealand manuka honey producers has been a bit of a challenge, with an Australian industry association recently opposing the kiwi drive for its "liquid gold" brand.
The Australian Manuka Honey Association (AMHA) was born at a meeting in Melbourne last month and is supported by major industry players including Australia's largest producer Capilano.
At that time around the same report emerged from New Zealand producers applying for an exclusive trademark for "manuka honey" in five countries, including Australia and China.
But Australians argue the kiwi claims what was formerly called "liquid gold", produced by bees looking for the original Leptospermum plant of both countries, is the bed.
The prime AMHA chief Paul Callender said that the group would let the domestic industry inaugurate and fight.
"Some of us agreed that it was time to involve key people from the industry," he said.
"[New Zealand] is trying to do this trademark globally to prevent access from other participating market countries.
