Many Bees Are Needed
For Crop Pollination
Are crop recommendations
of the future likely to be so many
seeds, so much fertilizer, and
so many honey bees?
This is already the case with
some crops grown in North
Carolina. Apple and blueberry
producers make extensive use
of honey bees as pollinators.
Horticultural!sts at North
Carolina State University arp
also recommendir^ one to twd
hives of bees for each acre of
^pickling cucumbers. The feel*
ing is that other cucubitsr—
vine crops—might benefit from
the same practice.
Traditionally raised for their
honey and wax, interest in bees
as pollinators is growing by
leaps and bounds, according to
Frank Meacham, extension en
tomologist at NCSU.
Bees are important in the
pollination of about 50 crops,
mainly fruits and vegetables.
Farmers have usually relied on
wild insects to do the pollinat
ing.
But with the emphasis on high
WILL YOUR
CROPS BE ...?
Will your crops be paying
crops or hailed out crops
this season? You never
know. But you can be sure
you’ll be protected from fi
nancial loss if you have ad
equate coverage against hail
losses! See us about Hail

er yields, and with the destruc
tion of many wild insects, farm
ers cannot always rely on wild
insects to do the job.
Interest in bees as pollinators
is especially keen in California,
Meacham said. Bees there are
being bred to prefer one crop
over another.
Interest in bees is also giv
ing rise to a new type of busi
ness in North Carolina. Some
farmers are raising bees and
renting them to apple and bine
berry growers.
Rental prices usually run
from $3 to $7 per hive, although
Meacham believes this figure
will eventually settle down as
the practice increases.
Apple growers not only make
extensive use of bees, but they
have figured out several ways to
get maximum benefit from them.
