There is a thread on here on that subject already, how many hundred hives do you run as proper pollination needs to be done properly

There may have been other threads on the subject by other beekeepers in the past, this one's mine for Gloucestershire. One doesn't necessarily need hundreds of hives by the way.. it all depends on the size of the forage area and the forage itself. It' a great way to maximise crops
