- Observation Twenty-eight bee species were caught.
- Observation Apis individuals exceeded 92% of 3842 sampled bees and dominated all 24 sites.
- Association Habitat effects on bee richness and abundance were stronger at farm than landscape scale.
- Association Bee richness and abundance were negatively associated with field size.
- Association Bee richness and abundance were positively associated with flowering plant diversity.
- Association Total bee abundance was positively associated with wetland cover.
- Recommendation Farmers can enhance bees by retaining small flower patches in fields.
