Another problem for punjab and India.

Bees dying.

We could loose our crops

Writings on the wall. 

Try scaring some of the agricultural university researchers into developing something that might help?

They will only care when there is no turning back. Until then they want to enjoy their pay without putting in any work or effort.

We need a strong visionary to force things through. It won't be pretty.

do you ever wonder how most Punjabi's never question these universities. Like what are they even doing. The environment is in extreme danger zone, what have these universities done?Like what is the point of even having an agriculture university when they provide basically no research or solution?

No, I know exactly why.

Dear veerji

This seems to be a global problem including England.

We need cannabis/hemp farming everywhere in the world if we want to save the planet.

Hemp is our last hope.

Yeah? I thought this was our last hope?

Another study conducted in Punjab, India and published in 2012, showed that during a floral dearth period (in Punjab, this occurs in May and June), honeybees (Apis mellifera) turned to the abundant male cannabis plants growing wild in the region as a pollen source. As cannabis flowers don’t produce nectar, the bees that were observed feeding on the plants were specialized pollen-gatherers only.

Furthermore, the bees were observed feeding on male flowers only, during mornings and evenings. They were absent at other times. This is because anther dehiscence — the process whereby the male reproductive organs split to release pollen — occurs during these times. Thus, bees are attracted to cannabis plants, but only to males, only during floral dearth periods, and only during periods of peak pollen production.
