Data for: Plant-pollinator interactions in apple orchards from a production and conservation perspective

The data were collected in and next to apple orchards at Lake Constance. Pollinators were sampled in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The goal of the research project was to assess the effect of orchard-adjacent conservation measures, namely flower strips and/or hedges.
