Description
DESCRIPTION LU503278
METHOD FOR POLLINATING GREENHOUSE BLUEBERRIES BY BUMBLEBEES
OR HONEYBEES
The invention relates to the technical field of blueberry planting, in particular to a method for pollinating greenhouse blueberries by bumblebees or honeybees.
Blueberry is rich in anthocyanin, pectin, superoxide dismutase and other nutrients, and it is one of the fruits with extremely high health care function. Blueberry has basically been distributed all over the world, and its adaptability to the environment is strong, with few diseases and insect pests, so its cultivation and management are relatively simple and easy. Planting blueberries in greenhouses, solar greenhouses and other facilities can not only improve the commodity rate of blueberries, but also stagger the peak time to market, thus improving the economic benefits of blueberry cultivation.
However, blueberry has a short flowering period and short pollination time, which requires high pollination efficiency. Pollination by bees or bumblebees is a common method in this field, which greatly saves time and labor, and is also conducive to improving the quality of blueberry fruit. Although bee or bumblebee pollination can improve the product and quality of blueberry to a certain extent, the degree of improvement is limited. How to further improve the yield of blueberry is a technical problem to be solved urgently in this field.
The purpose of the invention is to provide a method for pollinating greenhouse blueberries by bumblebees or honeybees. Using bumblebees or bees to pollinate greenhouse blueberries, and using blueberry floral syrup to feed the bees before they leave the nest, can make the bees more concentrated and transfer to blueberries to collect nectar, thus improving the pollination rate of blueberries and effectively increasing the yield of greenhouse blueberries.
To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical scheme: a method for pollinating greenhouse blueberries by bumblebees or honeybees comprises the following steps:
(1) enclosing blueberry which needs to be pollinated, and arranging a bee-proof net at théJ503278 ventilation openings and ventilation places of the facility; (2) moving blueberries into hives with bee colonies in full bloom, feeding the bee colonies with blueberry floral syrup once before the bee colonies leave the nests, and then feeding them once every morning before they leave their nests; (3) control the bee colonies to pollinate in the greenhouse for 15-20 days, and then move out of the hive to complete pollination.
Preferably, the bee colony is bumblebee or honeybee.
More preferably, the bee colony is honeybees.
The pollination effect of bees is better than that of bumblebees. Although bumblebees have large volume, high flight vibration intensity and high pollination efficiency, they will shake off some pollen during flight. Thus, although bumblebees increase pollination efficiency to an overall extent, the pollination rate that is enhanced by their own advantage is rather higher than the pollination rate that is reduced by wasted pollen. Generally speaking, the pollination rate of blueberries is higher and the yield is better when honeybees are used for pollination.
Preferably, the greenhouse is a shed.
Preferably, the density of the hives is 400-600 m*/hive.
Preferably, the preparation steps of the blueberry floral syrup include: dissolving white sugar in boiling water, adding freshly picked blueberry petals when the syrup is cooled to 20-25°C, and soaking for 4-5 hours to obtain the blueberry floral syrup.
More preferably, the mass ratio of boiling water to white sugar is 1: (1-2), and the addition amount of blueberry petals is 5-6% of the mass of syrup.
The invention has the following beneficial technical effects: according to the invention, bumblebees or honeybees are used to pollinate greenhouse blueberries, and the bee colonies are fed with blueberry floral syrup before the the bee colonies leave the nests, so that the bee colonies can be more intensively transferred to blueberries for nectar collection, thereby improving the pollination rate of blueberries and effectively increasing the yield of greenhouse blueberries.
According to the invention, bumblebees or honeybees are applied to pollination of greenhouse blueberries, which can save time and labor, improve the fruit setting rate and fruit quality of blueberries, solve the pollination problem of greenhouse blueberries under relatively isolatéd)503278 conditions, meet the requirements of safe, green and organic planting, and greatly improve the commodity quality of blueberries.
