Student Competition On-Demand
The effects of pest management practices are investigated while following hives before, during, and after blueberry and cranberry pollination services in New Jersey when beekeepers report $1 million in annual losses. The hive health of pollination colonies are measured and compared across various agriculutral settings and show an effect after three consecutive years. Here, the effects of double pollination in blueberry and cranberry crops and the differences found between large and small scale farms are identified and discussed.
