I understand that adequate bee pollination reduces the spread in maturity of
the OSR seeds, i.e. pollination of the crop takes place over a shorter
period of time. This increases the effective yield by reducing losses of
over-mature seed dropping to the ground and under-mature seed having a low
oil content.
