dc.descriptionLand use has changed at an unprecedented rate during the past century. Agricultural lands, pastures, tree plantations and urban areas have expanded concomitantly with the consumption of agricultural products, energy, water and chemical inputs [1]. Those changes have caused widespread environmental degradation and major biodiversity loss that affect the ecosystem services on which human livelihoods depend [1], including crop pollination by wild insects [2, 3]. This chapter provides a general framework for understanding the contribution of animal pollination to crop yield. It also describes global patterns of pollinator abundance and diversity, pollinator dependence, pollination deficits, and the pollination efficiency of honey bees (Apis mellifera) and wild insects. It concludes with recommendations for improved agricultural sustainability from the enhancement of pollinator biodiversity, pollination services and crop yield.
