Popis: Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is one of the most important annual spice and medicinal herbplant. It is an open pollinated crop and honeybees are effective pollinators for open pollinated crops because of a lot of nectar and pollens are available on the flowers of Coriandrum sativum. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of honeybees pollination on Coriandrum sativum seed yield and yield related parameters at Sinana Agricultural Research center at on-station. The study had three experiment; these includes plots caged with honeybees (T1), plots caged without honeybees (T2) and open pollinated plots (T3). All collected data were analyzed using One-way-Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). There were no significant different (P>0.05) on Date of blooming, Date of flowering,, Primary and secondary branches among the three treatments. Whereas, there were a significant difference (P
