Once the bees have returned to the hive for the night, we block up their doorway with a piece of porous foam and secure their hive with ropes before picking up the whole hive and transporting it via land rover over the fields to another crop. Once at their new location the foam is removed and the worker bees begin foraging in their new surroundings for sources of nectar.
