This is a list of crop plants pollinated by bees along with how much crop yield is improved by bee pollination. [1] Most of them are pollinated in whole or part by honey bees and by the crop's natural pollinators such as bumblebees, orchard bees, squash bees, and solitary bees. Where the same plants have non-bee pollinators such as birds or ...
Instead, all female ground bees are fertile and also serve as worker bees, building burrows and collecting food. During mating season, each female will dig a burrow at least 6 inches deep.
The increasing size of fields and orchards (monoculture) increase the importance of pollination management.Monoculture can cause a brief period when pollinators have more food resources than they can use (but monofloral diet can reduce their immune system [1]) while other periods of the year can bring starvation or pesticide contamination of food sources.

Tilia americana is a species of tree in the family Malvaceae, native to eastern North America, from southeast Manitoba east to New Brunswick, southwest to northeast Oklahoma, southeast to South Carolina, and west along the Niobrara River to Cherry County, Nebraska.
The plants serve as food for wild turkeys, rabbits, deer, livestock, the mourning dove, the bobwhite, and the white-footed mouse. [13] [14] Native bees such as the mason bees, sweat bees, and the violet specialist mining bee, visit the Viola sororia plant for its nectar in the spring. [15] Butterflies are also known to pollinate the species. [5]
