Naturally there are too few bumblebees (Bombus) and they fly too late in the year. To replace honeybees for pollination in general, artificially bred bumblebees in large numbers would have to be used. > If you wish to bring up conspiracy > theories try the Melamine additives that were spotted 2 years ago in > everything from pet foods to milk formulas Actually, Melamine additives weren't an attempt to "cull" (wouldn't be effective anyway), but a typical example of the fraudulent profit maximization that "Free" Trade evokes. > Where oh where do we begin.
