The key factor is the ratio of pro-active foragers to re-active foragers (for bee colonies). Under specifiable conditions, the optimum strategy is totally independent (pro-active) foraging for all the bees, because potentially valuable information that re-active foragers may gain from successful foragers is not worth waiting for.

Ayant survécu.
