Abstract

Bees play a very important role in the entire ecosystem, as their pollination ensures the genetic diversity of flowering plants. Therefore, we need to study the factors influencing bee population size and its pollination. In this paper, we build a mathematical model and solve it to obtain the influence of different factors on the number of bee populations, and calculate the number of bees required for pollination in a certain space. Finally, we analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the model, as well as some more discussion.
