It has been reported that up to 95% of all flowering plants require
the services of other organisms to move pollen from male to female
flower parts during the pollination process. These organisms,
including bees, are collectively known as pollinators. However, in
light of the growing evidence of global declines in pollinator
species, the management, ecology and conservation of wild and
managed pollinators is a subject of growing importance and research
activity. Promoting pollination and pollinators in farming reviews
the wealth of research on our current understanding of existing
pollination processes and their importance to our global
ecosystems. The book considers how pollinators interact with
plants, as well as the major threats to pollinator species,
including climate change, diseases and pesticide exposure. Through
its comprehensive exploration of the current status of pollinators
in farming, the book provides its readers with the knowledge
required to promote pollination by protecting the world's
pollinators species and the ecosystem services they deliver using
techniques such as habitat conservation.
