In this module, we will introduce how to use the NEPP pollinator monitoring app, which is available for free download via the NEPP website (https://www.northeastpollinatorpartnership.org/count-bees/) . This monitoring tool will be useful for growers, extension professionals, and crop consultants who wish to assess the abundance of wild and managed pollinators in orchards in order to better understand their pollinator needs. Agricultural service providers will be trained in the use of the NEPP pollinator monitoring app and will be able to train interested growers, extension professionals and crop consultants in its use.
