Why Pollen?

Pollen is a living, natural product that is made from flowers and carried by bees from specific varieties of trees. Once extracted, pollen can be used to improve production and enhance the quality of your crops, even in poor pollination seasons. Becker Pollen is able to provide you with the best pollen for cherry and almond trees.

Cherries

Sour cherries are able to pollinate themselves, but most sweet cherries do require cross-pollination, or pollination by another cherry variety in order to successfully bear fruit.

Almonds

Almond trees are not self-pollinating, so they need some extra help to fertilize flowers and start the process of growing nuts. Almond bloom is the first natural pollen source for bees after winter. Honey bee hives grow stronger from almond bloom and it's also the first natural pollen source for bees after the winter season.
