I need more details on this "more efficient than bees" claim. I grow a couple of hydroponic strawberry plants for fun, and every strawberry is a result of my swirling a toothbrush around a flower. I am having a hard time imagining scaling that up without bees.
Two words my friend: robot ~~bees~~ toothbrushes
Or they use bees but surgically attach toothbrushes to make them even more efficient.
