Honeybees love SuperBee Phacelia, its nectar content and high protein levels lead to superb honey production. A large number of insects are attracted to phacelia, providing your fields with a strong biological control of certain pests. Its long bloom period keeps these insects working on your farm for 6-8 weeks. Preliminary research has shown up to a 30% reduction in nematodes.
