CNN News: BeeFlow超级配方提高蜜蜂性能和免疫系统

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Bees are responsible for pollinating one third of all crops worldwide and populations are declining impacting the nearly $20 billion they contribute to U.S. crop production. In fact, this past winter saw the highest honeybee colony losses on record but the company BeeFlow thinks they can give bees a boost with a special nutrient packed super food formula they say improves their performance and immune system.

未知女性，蜜蜂对美国农作物产量的贡献接近200亿美元，但蜜蜂的数量正在减少。事实上，去年冬天蜜蜂群体的损失是有记录以来最高的，但是BeeFlow公司认为他们可以通过一种特殊的营养成分包装的超级食物配方来提高蜜蜂的性能和免疫系统。

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Some people say that we’re doing super bees. We think we are developing strong and smart bees.

未知男性：有人说我们在研究超级蜜蜂。但我们认为我们只是在培育强壮而聪明的蜜蜂。

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Feed the bees the formula and they can work longer and in colder temperatures. Helpful for crops like these almond trees in California which have short pollination windows.

未知女性：把配方喂给蜜蜂，它们就能在更低的温度下工作更长时间。对加利福尼亚杏树等授粉时间较短的作物很有帮助。

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It’s very close from here. We’ve done a trial where we see that our bees were doing seven times more flights under really cold temperatures.

未知男性：离这里很近。我们做了一个实验，我们发现培育的蜜蜂在非常低的温度下飞行了距离增加了7倍。

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: With no automated way to monitor bee performance, the BeeFlow team spends hours each day staring at trees, counting bees.

未知女性：英文没有自动化的方法来监控蜜蜂的绩效，BeeFlow团队每天花几个小时盯着蜜蜂，并数蜜蜂。

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We know how many bees that the flower requires to develop a fruit of excess (ph) size.

未知男性：我们知道花朵授粉结成果实需要多少蜜蜂参与。

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: In Argentina, they’re trials increased crop yields up to 90 percent and made fruit like these blueberries in Oregon 22 percent bigger. At the moment, BeeFlow knows it can’t address every issue impacting bees.

未知女性: 在阿根廷，他们试验将作物产量提高了90%，并使俄勒冈州的蓝莓等水果的产量提高了22%。目前，BeeFlow认为不能解决影响蜜蜂的所有问题。

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There’s a lot of questions that are still waiting for answers and we think that this is just a start of our journey on pollination that has been (inaudible) by the agriculture industry.

未知男性：还有很多问题悬而未决，我们认为这近视农业授粉之旅的开始。
