Abstract
Pollination is a crucial ecosystem service that underpins the health of both natural ecosystems and human agricultural systems. This process involves the transfer of pollen from the male parts of a flower to the female parts, facilitating fertilization and the production of seeds and fruits. Pollination services are provided by a diverse array of organisms, including bees, butterflies, birds, bats, and even wind and water. The importance of these services extends far beyond the immediate benefits to individual plants; they play a vital role in maintaining biodiversity, supporting food security, and contributing to the overall resilience of ecosystems.
