There are many commercial beekeepers who make their primary livelihood
from pollination service, myself included. In California and parts of the
northwest the income from pollination service is greater than, or as much as,
the income from honey. I belive this is likely true in Michigan, NY, and New
England, and Florida, with some other smaller areas too.
