Managing bees for pollination Bilpin

This practical workshop is aimed at helping growers and apiarists improve pollination services for healthier crops and higher yields.

Event details:

Join Greater Sydney Local Land Services for a practical, hands-on workshop designed to support pollination-dependent growers and the apiarists who supply pollination services.

• practical methods for managing honey bees during flowering

• placement and stocking rates of hives for optimal pollination

• how to identify and troubleshoot poor pollination issues in crops.
