Symbiosis of Hemp and Bees

Symbiosis of Hemp and Bees

Zach Ashcraft
Among the several different types of symbiotic relationships, hemp and bees have a mutualistic relationship where each organism benefits from their interactions with each other. As bees are foraging for pollen as a food source from hemp they also transfer the pollen from male to female hemp plants which aids in pollination.

The uses for hemp are vast and long-reaching with the potential to replace many products that negatively impact the environment as well as provide us with supplements that could enrich our diets and health.
