Walstrom advises spraying at night between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. to protect bloom and suggests two honeybee colonies per acre for adequate pollination unless a nearby apiary exists. He notes more wild pollinators can reduce bee needs and cites Iowa State College results showing seed production rose two to three times with sprays and bees.

Insecticides and bees key to high legume seed yields
Iowa State College extension entomologist R J Walstrom says insecticides and bees drive high legume seed production. A pound per acre of DDT is advised when red clover and alfalfa are 4 to 6 inches tall, with a second application pre bloom. Toxaphene is suggested if grasshoppers are abundant. Bees are crucial and a sudden viva is noted.
