The abundance of Be has been determined in 11 subgiants of spectral types F-K from spectrograms of 6.7 A/mm dispersion and a model atmosphere analysis by using atmospheres of Carbon and Gingerich. The amount of convective dilution of Be during post-main-sequence evolution has been determined for 1, 1.25, and 1.5 solar mass stars. Several of the stars fall into the region of expected Be dilution; they all show reduced amounts of Be, close to the calculated diluted values. When the observed Be values are corrected for the effects of dilution and restored to their main-sequence values, they are in good agreement with the average found by Boesgaard for the main-sequence Be abundance.
