The business of pollination is crucial to the agricultural industry in the United States. In Florida, the major need for pollination is in fruit and vegetable production. It is well documented that watermelon and other cucurbits, as well as blueberries, some citrus and numerous other fruits will yield more in both quantity and quality when pollinated by honey bees.
