The Wonder of Bees.

[T-oddity]

It is regarded that Honey bees pollinate about 30% of the food that you eat, not strictly true as an awful lot of pollinating is done by other insects and bumble bees are far more efficient than honey bees, generally they start earlier in the day and work later into the evening, if you are looking to improve pollination in your own crops without the hassle of keeping bees then having a diverse variety of nectar rich plants throughout the season to attract in pollinating insects and a bug hotel for insects to hibernate in over winter is about the best thing you can do. Of course you don't get the benefits of honey.
