Less Disease & Higher Profits Using Bees
Your pollinating bee hives can do much more for your berry crops – and for your bottom line.
This growing season, leverage them to reduce disease and increase yield by adding bee vectoring systems for bees to continuously deliver natural fungicides to where they are needed most – directly into blooms.
Bee vectoring delivers continuous protection directly to flowers: BVT’s VectorHive™ system uses commercial bees to deliver Vectorite with CR-7, a biological fungicide for the control of common fungal diseases including Colletotrichum (anthracnose), Botrytis (gray mold) and Monilinia (mummy berry).
How it works: As bees leave their hive to forage, they walk through the VectorHive dispenser or tray, picking up trace amounts of the biological product (which attach harmlessly to their bodies), then carry it directly into blooms. As the bees pollinate your crops, they efficiently deliver the microbe directly to where plants are most susceptible to many fungal diseases: the flower. Once on the flower, the microbe
