A practical book for beekeepers, farmers and gardeners
Up to 40% more harvest of stone, pome and soft fruit, rape, pumpkin and courgettes? With a simultaneous decline in many insect species?
This is possible with the help of pollinator beekeeping!
Pollinator beekeepers specifically place honeybees, wild bees or bumblebee colonies in agricultural and horticultural crops to ensure optimal pollination.
All important questions about pollination beekeeping, pollinating insects and the crops to be pollinated in the field, greenhouse and foil tunnel are answered. How do pollinator beekeepers work, what are the benefits for farmers/gardeners, and how should optimal cooperation between beekeepers and farmers/gardeners be organised?
With fact sheets and pollination suggestions for the most important crops.
