Wild bees are going extinct. Domesticated bees are trucked all over the country to pollinate crops at great cost. Could this robot be a better solution? And could it help save the bees?

A recent study investigates the role of sonic vibrations in improving pollination efficiency and fruit size in tomatoes. By simulating bee-like vibrations using non-contact sonication technology, the ...

Fruit crop production relies on effective transfer of pollen to achieve fertilisation, fruit set and quality. Natural pollination by insects—principally bees, bumble bees and other wild ...
