Check out this fascinating study on using dead fish to attract blow flies as pollinators in orchards! 🐟🌳🪰

[Dr Jon Finch @JtdFinch]

Did you know that some fruit growers place dead fish in their orchards to encourage blow flies as pollinators?

Our new paper, published in @JPE12328968 set out to determine if it actually works! @jimpelaJMC @amymariegilpin
