In these field experiments we did earlier this year in the town of Iijima, we found that spraying nectar yeast and bacteria to buckwheat fields increased insect pollination and seed set.
Food research spotlight 🌾 A team of Stanford researchers is studying interactions between pollinators, microorganisms, and buckwheat crops in Japan. They hope to better understand these fundamental ecological relationships and gather evidence to potentially improve crop yields and food security.
