More than 1,000 bumblebees came to work in the Podmoskovye greenhouse complex near the village of Ratmirovo. They settled in the second block of greenhouses and began their duties. The ovary that began to form in the flowers is their proboscis business. Specialists release bumblebees from hives daily from 8 to 11 am. In such hot weather, their performance does not exceed 6 weeks.
"Kvaliteten på frukten avhenger av pollineringsprosessen. Det er viktigst. Tidligere, når vi ikke gjorde denne typen pollinering, fikk vi en liten høst. Vi forsto ikke at det var mulig å hjelpe planter på denne måten. Nå blir det selvsagt mer høsting, og produktene i seg selv er smakligere!» – sa Svetlana Shishkina, sjefagronom ved kjøpesenteret Podmoskovye.
An interesting fact is that bumblebees pollinate the culture with their buzzing (the so-called vibrational pollination). Previously, this was done mechanically. The presence of bumblebees on the plantation is a guarantee of a high yield and a guarantee of environmental friendliness of products.
