The content of macro-and trace elements in honeybee pollen loads collected from the Al-Ahsa oasis, Saudi Arabia during spring, summer, autumn, and winter in 2018/2019 were determined. After critical screening and observation, we found that the major pollen floral resources were rapeseed, sunflower, summer squash, and date palm. The highest values of sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P) and manganese (Mn) were found in pollen loads trapped during spring and winter. The highest levels of copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) were found from pollen loads harvested during autumn, while the highest content of zinc (Zn) was found in pollen loads collected during the summer. Higher concentrations of the essential elements (Na, K, Ca, Mg and P) for human nutrition found in pollen loads collected during the spring and winter seasons, make them valuable food supplements. Finally, the elements contained in pollen loads can be related to the season of pollen load collection.

确定了在2018/2019年春季，夏季，秋季和冬季从沙特阿拉伯Al-Ahsa绿洲收集的蜜蜂花粉中宏观和微量元素的含量。经过严格的筛选和观察，我们发现主要的花粉花卉资源是油菜籽，向日葵，西葫芦和枣椰树。在春季和冬季捕获的花粉中发现了最高的钠（Na），钾（K），钙（Ca），镁（Mg），磷（P）和锰（Mn）。从秋季采集的花粉中发现铜和铁的含量最高，而夏季采集的花粉中锌的含量最高。在春季和冬季采集的花粉中发现较高浓度的人体营养必需元素（Na，K，Ca，Mg和P），使它们成为有价值的食品补品。最后，花粉负荷中包含的元素可能与花粉负荷收集的季节有关。
