We are looking at working with  some growers pollinating canola
crops.

We would appreciate information and comments on the following
questions

1       Is there a premium or penalty on canola honey?

2       Are there any special characteristics  about canola honey?

3       Is is worth while collecting the pollen from canola crops for
re-sale or for feeding to bee's later?

4       How much is charged per hive for pollinating canola crops and how
long is the pollination period?

5       What is the recommended  stocking rate for canola.?

6       Is much propolis made from canola crops?

7       What is the improvement in yield due to pollination of Canola?
i.e. to the farmer.

8       What special preparations are necessary  to prepare the bees for
the best results for both the farmer and the beekeeper.


Thanks in advance
