How Is Pollen Collected?

Pollen is the favourite food of bees, particularly the pollens of maize, sor-ghum, rape, sunflower, willow, linden, chaste tree and Chinese milk vetch. The pollens we eat are collected by bees. When bees collect pollens, they add some honey and saliva to mold it into bigger balls. A square-mesh collecter is put at the entrance of beehives and when the bees go through it into the hive, the pollens are scraped off their legs and into the collecter. The collected pollens will be dried and finally pro-cessed into medicine or a nutritious bev-erage.
