Abstract

Being pollinators of entomophilous plants, bees are part of natural complexes of agrolandscapes due to their species composition. Pollination of flowers by bees on the territory of Nakhchivan mainly occurs within 700-1300hours in the morning. The maximum value of the number of bees in crops was recorded at 1100-1300 hours. The main pollinators of alfalfa and other fodder plants are representatives of Andrena, Melitturga, Halictus, Nomia, Rophitoides, Melitta, Anthidium, Osmia, Eucera, Megachile, Lithurgus, Anthophoraand Bombus genera. Our monitoring of bee populations in natural conditions and the application of a system for predicting expected changes serve their effective utilization, protection, and creation of favorable conditions for their aggregation in agro- and various coenosis.
