18 The number of visits is important! 1-4 Visits 5-9 Visits 10+ Visits Number of drupelets Number of Drupelets; (lots is good!) Hall et al. (in prep.) Multiple pollinator visits are required for commercial raspberry production Why is there so much variation? Are mixed visits good? 1. Differences in foraging behaviour could mean some visits are good for flower and others not 2. Differences in foraging behaviour could mean more fruit set overall 18
