Pollinatorfriendly gardening practices can benefit both wildlife and people from "summary" of The Forgotten Pollinators by Stephen L. Buchmann,Gary Paul Nabhan
Gardening practices that are friendly to pollinators not only support the diverse wildlife that plays a crucial role in pollination but also bring benefits to people. By creating habitats that attract and support pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and birds, we can enhance biodiversity and ecosystem health in our own backyards. The presence of pollinators in our gardens leads to increased fruit and vegetable production, as these animals play a vital role in the pollination process. Without pollinators, many plants would struggle to reproduce, resulting in reduced crop yields and potential food shortages for humans. By actively supporting pollinators through our gardening practices, we can help ensure a more secure and sustainable food supply for ourselves and future generations. In addition to the practical benefits of increased crop yields, poll...
