The widespread perception supply of honey bees and wax and other bee products. Meanwhile, the value of bees as a producer of the products mentioned above is just one-tenth (and by) some calculations, only one hundredth) of what they provide as zapylacze crops and wild. So pay attention to the issue.

To understand the importance of bees as pollinators of plants you need to know how close the world connect with the world of insects pollinating crops. It is hard to imagine the existence of any plant of bees without supplying them with food - pollen and nectar. Many plant species also could not exist without the pollinating insects, among whom occupy the first place honeybees. The issue of plant and fruit seeds, it is necessary to get the pollen from pylników to sign pillar. In nature there are plants and self obcopylne. In self-sufficient plant pollination own pollen from the same flower or other flowers of the same plants. We will deal with the phenomenon samozapłodnienia, a plant that we call samopłodną or samopylną. This process can lead to mechanical movement flower by the wind, because pollen of these plants is dry and light unoszący easily in the air. But if you rise to fruits and seeds is needed pollen strangers, ie coming from other plants of the same species - then we talk about the phenomenon obcopylności, and we call such plants obcopylnymi. Therefore, these plants are often referred to as owadopylne, and that, therefore, that the pollen is heavy and humid, and only insects can transmit it from one flower to another. In this case we are dealing with cross-pollination.

Cross-pollination is always better because of the performance of fruits and seeds than their own pollen pollination, the plants even in highly self. It is important primarily for the conservation of the species. The scientific data shows that the majority of crops without the participation of bees zawiązuje negligible number of fruits and seeds. In addition, the fruits are minor, non-shaped and their yields are lower and quality is worse usable seeds. Seeds resulting from these flowers is not only poorly kiełkują, but also seem weaker plants descendants.

Entomofilnych pollination of agricultural and horticultural crops by the bees is one of the cheapest and fundamental factors in crop production, because without good dust you can not count on high yield of valuable fruits and seeds.

About the fact that among the pollinating insects plants flowers owadopylnych (entomofilnych) in the first place are the bees provide the following characteristics:

high population levels throughout the year,
bees in our conditions are the only insects zimującymi assembled zapylającymi plants, so now the spring gathering nectar and pollen can zapylić plants over a wide area

the possibility of rapid growth and abundance,

collection of large quantities of honey and pollen combined with the need to visit numerous flowers,

the possibility of transporting bees near blossoming plantations,

owłosiona covers the body of bees favours retention of grains of pollen,

a tendency to oblatywania flowers of one species of plants (flower fidelity) which translates into the fact that once discovered a source of benefit for example, flourishing łan rape zbieraczki bees use to the end.

The undoubted advantages of breeding bees require that the society as a whole supported the quite specific branch of production. It is, above all, avoid wasteful dismantling of trees and shrubs nektarodajnych. Closely followed the recommendations when applying the treatment plant protection measures poisonous to bees. Increasingly intensive agriculture chemicalization adversely affect the status of wild entomofauny zapylającej, so further increasing the role of bees.

At the end have to stress again that choćbyśmy not pozyskiwali from bees or honey or wax, or other products, it would not care about the same as carefully now, because as zapylacze plant entomofilnych are essential nature and man.
