Examples illustrating how the effects of pollinators on crop quality were examined in research experiments. From left to right: exclusion of pollinators, open animal pollination, manual ...
Pollinators are insects that visit the flowers we grow. They drink the nectar from the flowers and when they do, they get sticky pollen grains on their body which they take from flower to flower ...
Human impacts go beyond fragmentation of habitat to other modifications. We are interested in how anthropogenic impacts from farming to logging to cattle grazing affect bee communities and pollination ...
