Dr Katja Hogendoorn – Pollination in Protected Cropping
School of Agriculture, Food and Wine
WHEN: Thursday 10th June 2021, 12pm
Abstract
Horticultural crops are increasingly grown in protected environments which saves water, and can protect the crop from abiotic and biotic damage. However, the covers can substantially reduce pollination services. The seminar will discuss some of the problems that bees encounter when placed in protected environments, and present some of our recent results regarding modifications in the cropping environment that can assist in overcoming these issues.
The seminar will be both face-to-face in Charles Hawker Conference Centre and as a webinar.
Due to a limit of 70 people in Charles Hawker if you wish to attend in person you must register at this Eventbrite link
