[NAFEX] Pear question

Jim,
If the tree is receiving ample pollination, why graft pollinizers on it? You COULD have a pollination issue unrelated to cross-pollination---like a nutrient deficiency. Zinc is important for pollination, for example. There could be other possibilties that I'm sure others on the list can suggest.
Regards,
Richard, NW FL

I have a Ure Pear that receives ample pollination (I have bee hives) but
produces few fruits. I'd like to graft other pear varieties onto it to
achieve cross pollination. Which varieties could I graft onto it that might
bloom at the same time? I'm in zone 3.
