• From research to action: Enhancing crop yield through wild pollinators (2014, background): “Sowing crops that bloom in different periods may therefore increase wild-insect populations; in Sweden, bumble bee reproduction was improved in landscapes with both late-season flowering red clover and early-season mass-flowering crops (Rundlöf et al. 2014).”
• Landscape impacts on pollinator communities in temperate systems: evidence and knowledge gaps (2017, unknown): “However, late season MFCs, such as red clover ( Trifolium pratense ), can increase the reproductive capacity of bumblebees (Rundl € of et al. 2014).”
