BeeHero
BeeHero provides almond growers with a superior pollination service. We bring the highest quality hives, and deploy them in the most efficient way, to ensure you get the maximum crop set from bloom. To achieve this, we use a smart sensor that measures key metrics in each hive, including temperature, humidity, and the acoustic signature. This data enables us to calculate the number of bee frames in every colony and, thus, its precise pollinating strength relative to other colonies in your orchards. BeeHero in a nutshell. We are the largest provider of pollination services to California almond growers. Our database of bee and pollination metrics is built on the collective wisdom gained from pollinating over 195 thousand acres, with 325 thousand hives producing over 25 million data points a day. This dataset is the largest in the world. Our team of beekeepers, engineers, data scientists, programmers, researchers, and agriculturalists is committed to applying this collective expertise to your pollination to improve its outcome. Why Precision Pollination matters. Your pollination bill is often the second largest crop expense on your ranch. It lacks accountability, and does not give you any assurance of profitability. BeeHero Precision Pollination, addresses both these pain points. The frames per acre model. BeeHero has introduced a new model that focuses on knowing the precise strength of each hive. This new metric of “frames per acre” is far more precise and provides truly effective pollination. Relying on a “hives per acre” model is antiquated and embeds risk. It does not deliver the visibility and accountability needed to succeed in today’s almond industry. More than ever before, farming success is driven by the pursuit of efficiency. Data-driven decision-making has permeated virtually all aspects of almond production, from irrigation and fertilization to soil and canopy monitoring. It’s time to apply the same data-driven decision approach to your pollination. BeeHero Precision Pollination monitors, manages and maximizes your profitability. The BeeHero difference. BeeHero delivers three critical advantages that bring transformative value and risk mitigation to your pollination. Visibility. As part of our service, we provide you with a user-friendly dashboard that gives you unprecedented visibility into the strength, and efficiency of the bees in your orchards. No other provider is with you for the entire season. From the minute the hives arrive till the final petal falls only BeeHero gives you 24/7 awareness of your pollination. Optimization. Knowing the strength of every hive we bring, means we calculate your pollination requirements far more precisely so you can move past the legacy thinking of “two hives per acre”, by using math based on our Precision Pollination “frames-per-acre” model. This optimization is only possible with the BeeHero model. Accountability. The buck really does stop with us. What do we mean by that? Think of your PCA. They have an ethical responsibility to give you advice that they stand behind, backed by a professional credential, similarly we are always accountable to you to provide the highest quality bees available. And furthermore BeeHero is the only pollination provider that recommends the exact amount of frames per acre needed, based on your varieties, density, orchard age and yield expectation. We stand behind our commitment to Precision Pollination and even if we need to bring more bees we will always fulfill our contracted agreement at no extra cost to you. Don’t leave pollination to chance. Be Sure. Be Precise. BeeHero.
