VIETGAP for beekeeping or VietGAHP for animal husbandry was established and issued by the Livestock Department, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, on November 10, 2015, according to Decision No. 4653/QD-BNN-CN. VIETGAP (Vietnamese Good Agricultural Practice) is a set of standards/practices for good agriculture in Vietnam. For the beekeeping sector, besides the term VIETGAP, the term VietGAHP (Vietnam Good Animal Husbandry Practices) is also used. For the cultivation sector, the VIETGAP regulations are issued in the form of National Technical Standards (TCVN), while for the animal husbandry sector, the VIETGAP regulations are issued in the form of Good Animal Husbandry Practices, authorized by the Ministry of Agriculture (not yet issued as National Technical Standards). However, the criteria of VIETGAP for animal husbandry are harmonized with ASEANGAP and reference other GAP standards worldwide such as GlobalG.A.P (international), JGAP (Japan), and ChinaGAP (China).Readmore

Honey dehydration - a device for separating, filtering, and sterilizing honey to enhance its storage and preservation capabilities. Why is honey dehydration so necessary?Readmore

Coffee blossom honey is produced in the Gia Lai material area - Arabica coffee flower. This is the most pure honey, because at the moment the flower blooms, a whole land of coffee plants will spread thousands of white coffee flowers, which are often called snowflakes, making honey bees work hard to collect all the honey.Readmore

The content of active ingredients GO-MGO is an important criterion for evaluating the quality of honey. The higher the GO-MGO antimicrobial index in honey, the more beneficial it is for human health. Apart from Manuka honey from Australia, which has a high level of GO-MGO, Vietnamese honey also has many types with very good antibacterial properties, making it worth considering. One excellent choice is Northwest Mint honey.Readmore

Mint honey is honey harvested from honey bees' nests by bees sucking honey from mint flowers in the high mountainous rocky highlands of Meo Vac district of Ha Giang province. This is considered one of the best types of honey that anyone wants to taste once. High antioxidant content and GO-MGO is a rare active ingredient in any honey in the world.Readmore

The Langstroth hive beekeeping technique is now considered the most efficient method for honey production, ensuring high-quality honey while saving a significant amount of time and effort for beekeepers. Consequently, the Langstroth hive beekeeping method is becoming increasingly popular in many regions.Readmore

Non-GMO in honey production farming has a significant impact on the quality of the final honey product. That's also why companies are always very concerned about this factor when deciding to purchase honey from individuals.Readmore

To produce delicious and high-quality honey, the production process is extremely important. So, how does the modern clean production process for processing honey work specifically? The quality of honey is evaluated based on factors such as water content, sugar, HMF (hydroxymethylfurfural), etc. After harvesting, natural honey undergoes several steps to enhance its value. Step 1 - Testing the Quality of Freshly Harvested Nectar First, the company selects trays of ripe honeycomb. Then, they extract the raw honey, conduct preliminary filtration, and send samples for quality testing. Step 2 - Removing Poor-Quality Honey The company proceeds to eliminate samples of honey that do not meet quality standards. Some signs of poor-quality honey include unpleasant odor, unusual color, or sour taste. Step 3 - Honey Processing High-quality honey is taken to the processing plant, where the following steps are performed: Fine filtering the honey using nano-mesh (ensuring food safety and removing pollen and impurities from the honey). Eliminating yeast and fungi in the honey (ensuring the honey remains unchanged and safe for consumption). Reducing the water content (ensuring honey meets the standard and extends its shelf life). Decrystallizing the honey using ultrasonic wave technology (maintaining smooth consistency without re-crystallization). Step 4 - Proper Storage The high-quality honey is stored in a vacuum-sealed storage tank at an appropriate temperature. The honey storage tank must meet the following criteria: Made of full stainless steel 304, equipped with sanitary valves (preventing bacterial growth and corrosion), and maintained at 21-26 degrees Celsius to preserve the quality of deeply processed honey. Equipped with an automated filling machine using electronic scales and negative pressure. Ensuring no foreign substances enter the honey until it reaches the final product stage. Step 5 - Automated Bottling and Packaging: The honey is automatically bottled and packaged on existing production lines. Afterward, the final products are delivered to distribution points to serve customers. To implement this quality assurance process, the support of machines is indispensable, such as honey reducers, honey decrystallization machines, fungus treatment machines, etc. These are all modern machines that apply advanced 4.0 scientific and technological techniques. Each type of machine has its specific function, contributing to the optimal quality of honey. Thanks to these machines, the production process becomes professional, seamless, and meticulous. The quality of the honey meets European standards, optimizing the customer experience. So, what are the functions of these machines, and what are some common machine models available on the market?
