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 provides a comprehensive review of the wealth of research on our current understanding of existing pollination processes, how pollinators interact with plants, as well as major threats to pollinators, including climate change, disease, insect pests and pesticide exposure. This collection also assesses how best to protect pollinators and the ecosystem services they deliver, including improved crop and pest management practices.
