Choose TRIPOL

  • TRIPOL guarantee a good pollination when the wheatear conditions are not the appropriate.
  • Bumblebees lack the sophisticated communication system of honeybees and are therefore less likely to leave your crop for more attractive flowers.
  • Bumblebees generally visit more flowers during one foraging trip. This increases the probability of cross-pollination. They forage between plants more randomly than other pollinators.
  • Bumblebees can pollinate flowers through a method called "buzz pollination", a rapid vibrating motion which releases large amounts of pollen onto the bee or directly onto stigma. For some crops such as tomato and blueberry buzz pollination is essential and/or leads to better fruit quality.
  • Bumblebees are non-swarming and not aggressive making them safer to use for the grower and his employees.
  • Bumblebees ca be placed by the grower, and do not need maintenance.
  • TRIPOL can be a very good supplement to honeybee pollination.
