<Hello, is conditioning bees used in practice?  I've seen  articles on this 
for kiwi pollination and we've tried it for bakeapple.   Could you expand 
upon this?  Could it be practically applied to blueberry  pollination?>
 
How do you define conditioning of bees?   We  condition (TRAIN) bees to do 
various things, and we've had success  getting bees to increase foraging on 
crops that they often don't like to  forage.  
 
However, others seem to use the term with respect to the CONDITION of the  
bees themselves.
