Los polinizadores y los insectos benéficos brindan servicios ecosistémicos esenciales para las tierras agrícolas y la producción de cultivos. Más de dos tercios de las especies de cultivos del mundo dependen de la polinización para producir frutos y semillas. Más de 100 cultivos que se cultivan en los EE. UU. requieren o se benefician de los polinizadores para producir frutas y semillas, y se estima que el valor de los polinizadores solo para la agricultura de los EE. UU. vale miles de millones de dólares por año.

Esta serie de seminarios web analizará más detalladamente la biología de la polinización y el papel de las abejas nativas en la producción de cultivos, los insectos benéficos que contribuyen a la supresión de plagas y los programas y prácticas del Proyecto de Ley Agrícola que brindan asistencia técnica y financiera para implementar prácticas de conservación de polinizadores. Las prácticas cubiertas incluirán mejoras del hábitat, como diversas plantaciones de flores silvestres, setos de flores, franjas de insectos y bancos de escarabajos y la reducción de los impactos negativos de los pesticidas. Reserve la fecha: 30 de agosto, de 2 p. m. a 3 p. m. EST para la Parte 3 de esta serie de seminarios web: Biodiversidad climáticamente inteligente y conservación del carbono en tierras agrícolas rurales.

Part 2 of this webinar series will cover a more detailed look at pollination biology and the role of native bees in crop production, beneficial insects that contribute to pest suppression, and Farm Bill programs and practices that provide technical and financial assistance for implementing pollinator conservation practices. Practices covered will include habitat enhancements such as diverse wildflower plantings, flowering hedgerows, insectary strips, and beetle banks and reducing negative impacts of pesticides.

Pollinators and beneficial insects provide essential ecosystem services to agricultural lands and crop production. Over two-thirds of the world’s crop species rely on pollination to produce fruits and seeds. More than 100 crops grown in the U.S. either require or benefit from pollinators to produce fruits and seeds and the value of pollinators to U.S. agriculture alone is estimated to be worth billions of dollars per year.
