Pollination of plants |
|
| Honeybees are very efficient pollinators of flowers. They give more fruit and seeds of a better quality. |  |
| Cashew is one of the most important crops in Guinea Bissau Insects play a major role in the pollination, and placing honeybees colonies near the plantations can increase yields. |  |
| Mango is a delicious fruit. It is recommended to put beehives in the plantations to secure pollination |  |
| At the market in Gambia many of the fruits are a results of the pollination work of the honey bees. |  Photo: Ole Hertz |
| Ground nuts are one of Gambia's most important cash crops. Ground nuts are partly selffertile, but tripping by honeybees gives higher yields. |  |
