I have a question for you, how far will bees normally go if left alone?
If you expose a hive to certain phernomes they will begin laying eggs quickly. This would allow a hive to go from a few bees to a population that can quickly pollinate a very large orchard. This also would eliminate the need to move so many bees around. This works in the short term and then the colony collapses. It is not being a good steward of the enviroment to do this to a hive.
