Data from: Tillage in southeastern U.S. row crops reduces ground-nesting bee incidence and diversity compared to field edges
This dataset was collected to assess the response of ground-nesting bees to different agricultural management treatments while documenting key environmental variables. Data were collected from March 2021 to November 2022 at the E.V. Smith Research Center in Shorter, Alabama. The study site consisted of 96 experimental subplots arranged in a randomized block design within a long-established agricultural field. It provides valuable insights into the interactions between soil management practices, soil conditions, vegetation cover, and ground-nesting bee populations in agricultural landscapes. It may be useful for ecological modeling, particularly in understanding how management actions influence bee emergence. However, caution should be used in interpreting emergence trap data, as it does not represent floral visitation behavior.
