Welcome to the ‘BumblePlus’ project:

INNOVATION FOR IMPROVED STRAWBERRY POLLINATION BY COMMERCIAL BUMBLEBEES USING CAFFEINE

Rows of healthy strawberry plants growing in white grow bags inside a greenhouse.A bumblebee perched on the lid of a clear plastic vial with a white cap, placed on a green surface.

The aim of this project is to develop a method for improving pollination in strawberries, and other soft fruit crops, using caffeine to boost the performance of commercial bumblebee colonies.
