Support The presence of bees is necessary for excellent pollination, Support which, in turn, usually results in abundant fruits and vegetables. ████████████ █ ███████ ██ ███ ████ █████ ██████ ███████ ███ ████████ ██ █████ ███████ ████ ██ ███████████ ████████ ████ ██ ███ ████████ ███ █ ███ ███ █████████ ██████ █████ █████████ ███ ████ ██ ███ ███ █████████ █████ ████ ████ ███ ██ ████ █████████ ██ █████ ███████ ████ ████ ██ ████ █████████ ████████████
We have a series of conditional statement premises:
Excellent pollination → bees
Beehive → bees
Keeping bees economical → use for homegrown honey
Intermediate conc.:
Gardeners without a use for homegrown honey will tend not to have beehives.
Main conc.:
Gardeners without a use for homegrown honey won’t have excellent pollination.
In the jump from the int. conc. to the main conc., the author assumes that failing to have beehives implies there won’t be excellent pollination. This reverses the statement “beehive → bees.” Beehives ensure bees, but that doesn’t mean beehives are necessary for bees.
Also, in the jump to the int. conc., the author assumes that if keeping bees isn’t economical for someone, they probably won’t have beehives.
