Potential Chemicals in Pollinated
Crops
The information provided here
has been learnt over many years. Many bees have been killed by chemicals
during this time. Any information provided is a guide and users
of this guide/advice do so at their own risk. Batch mixing
of chemicals in some cases greatly increases the toxicity of the chemicals
to honey bees. Chemical
use should be discussed with the grower before placing bees on any
crop.

The following information has been prepared on chemicals
used in commercial seed canola production in Australia, using our own personal
experience and reference to the old class system.
It is essential that growers do not batch mix chemicals, or losses of bees
and crop will occur, due to the altering of the individual chemical ingredients’ toxicity.
The information is a guide only, to help protect bees and increase seed crop
returns.
