KGNU - How On Earth

Bees and Other Bugs


Listen Later

This week on How on Earth, we revisit bees and pollination biology. Beth spoke with Professor Michael Breed about honeybees and other pollinators. These insects provide crucial service to our agricultural systems by pollinating flowers whose seeds and fruit produce our foods. But many of us ignore or take them for granted. The Colorado State University Extension Service offers a lot of information on local pollinators.

You’ll also hear about the once-in-200-years event occurring when 13 and 17-year cicadas emerge this month.
