Agricultural intensification has led to the decrease of the diversity of wild and domestic
pollinators. For instance, honeybees declined by 59% in 61 years in the USA. About 35% of …

Pollinator-dependent growers seek alternative pollination models as pollination-security
concerns grow. Pollination reservoirs, set-aside bee foraging areas, may offer growers a …

Wild and managed bees are well documented as effective pollinators of global crops of
economic importance. However, the contributions by pollinators other than bees have been …

There is compelling evidence that more diverse ecosystems deliver greater benefits to
people, and these ecosystem services have become a key argument for biodiversity …

There is increasing recognition that pollination deficits are limiting crop yields world‐wide.
However, management strategies for optimal insect pollination are still unclear for most …

Many farmers are facing high economic risks if pollinator declines continue or temporal and
spatial variation in wild bee communities cause reduced pollination services. Co‐flowering …

Diversification of field edges is widely used as a strategy to augment pollinator populations
and, in turn, supplement crop pollination needs. Hedgerow plantings, a commonly applied …

Most crops grown in Europe, including sunflower (Helianthus annulus L.), benefit from insect
pollination. However, valuing this benefit is not straightforward since estimates of the …

The concept of pollinator niche complementarity maintains that species‐rich pollinator
communities can provide higher and more stable pollination services than species‐poor …

The benefits of insect pollination to crop yields depend on genetic and environmental factors
including plant self-fertility, pollinator visitation rates, and pollinator efficacy. While many …
