Description: Article by Dr. M. Sanford on the importance of honey bees to agriculture.
Proceedings of the Florida Agricultural Conference and Trade Show , September 29-30, 1998, J. Ferguson, et al eds., pp. 45-47. Research over the last few decades has enabled agriculturists to make great strides in both quantity and quality of food and fiber produced. The amount of fertilizer, water, sunlight and other variables such as proper cultivation, weed management and pesticide application are well known for many cultivated crop varieties. One input, however, has often been left out of the process, pollination, the vital reproductive process of plants. This is easy to understand because pollination is extremely complex and often occurs in an open system with variables that are difficult to control. As a consequence a myth has been perpetuated that in many cases pollination will take care of itself.
