Welcome to our podcast on pollination and its vital role in agriculture and ecosystem health. In today’s episode, we will see the world of beekeeping and pollination contracts with Jeremy Altoff, director of the Canadian Honey Council.
What are pollination contracts ? Pollination contracts are agreements between beekeepers and farmers to ensure the presence of pollinators, like bees, on agricultural land during the flowering period. Such a contract will help to prevent misunderstandings and are vital for effective pollination, enhancing crop production, and protecting pollinator populations.

Whether you’re a beekeeper, a farmer, or simply interested in sustainable agriculture, this episode offers valuable insights into the essential work that bees and other pollinators do to support our food systems.
