Three out of four plants provide fruits or seeds for human consumption as crops rely on insect pollinators across the world. Many fruit and vegetable crops such as almonds, apples, cranberries, melons, broccoli, cherries and blueberries are dependent upon insect pollinator services Thus, healthy and nutritious diet to humans is offered by the bee pollinators. These natural servants help in the fertilization and seed setting of 87 major food plants. Crop pollinators are in danger, and modern agronomic practices can minimize the threat to flower foragers by changing the landscape and redesigning the ecological procedures. Safeguarding over 20000 wild bee pollinators will be of great importance as these have enhanced the economic value of crops up to $235- 577 billion. Herein, emphasized are the questions, why insect pollinators are significant in crop improvement technology? and how this is improving the quality and quantity in food production.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
