In the first two months of 2022, Turkey saw significant success in honey exports, bringing in $7.13 million from the sale of 2,844 tons to 36 countries. The United States, Spain, and Germany were the leading consumers, with exports to the US alone amounting to $1.65 million. The most popular honey type exported was pine honey. However, the production of pine honey has been negatively affected by forest fires in the Aegean Region, a situation that is expected to influence export levels.
