Seed yields in canola ( Brassica napus cv. Karoo) depend on the distance of plants from honeybee apiaries

Manning, Rob; Wallis, Ian

Description

This research examined the benefits of placing hives of honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) in canola (Brassica napus L.) at a density of approximately 1 hive/ha. We tested 3 main hypotheses. First, deploying honeybees increases the yield of seed. Second, that
