Native Bees are Important and Need Immediate Conservation Measures: A Review

1. retired na, Australia
Abstract

Field crops rely on managed and wild bee pollinators, raising concerns about world food security. In North America alone, 4,000 native bee species, provide over US$1.5 billion each year from bee pollinated crops. Wild entpollinatology constitute a great part of bio-diversity. In US, the nationwide annual production value of wild pollinators was estimated over $1.5 billion; the worth of wild bee pollination in insect pollinated crops would be much more. Pollinator declines could translate directly into reduced production in many crops, and that wild species contribute substantially to pollination of most crops. By pollinating just a handful of crops, wild bees contribute over $1.5 billion annually.In this article, after realizing the significance of wild bees, we highlight to manage wild native bee pollinators to act as co-actors to honey bees in enhancing the global crop production.
