Biological Crop Protection Specialist, Biobest USA Inc.

Paul Koole joined the Biobest team in 2010 as a Biological Crop Protection Specialist for growers in Western USA and Canada. 30 years of co-managing Apko Nurseries Ltd in British Columbia provided him with the knowledge and experience he now uses to help growers.  His extensive involvement in the industry allows him to support sustainable growing practices, using beneficial insects for pest management and bumble bees for pollination. In January of 2017 Paul became the North American Technical Team Coordinator, to help build the ever growing team of Biobest technical representatives in both Canada and the US. Paul lives in British Columbia with his wife, and enjoys the outdoors.

As the first company ever to commercially supply bumblebees in 1987, Biobest continues to lead the way in bumblebee pollination. Biobest offers more bumblebee species to deal with pollination needs in various parts of the world than any other supplier.
