crop pollination
Crop pollination is the process where pollen from a flower’s male parts reaches the female parts, allowing plants to produce seeds and fruit. This can occur naturally through insects like bees, butterflies, and other animals that visit flowers, or through wind and water. Pollination is essential for many crops such as fruits, vegetables, and nuts, ensuring good yields and food production. Healthy pollinator populations and diverse ecosystems support effective pollination, which in turn helps maintain sustainable agriculture and food security.
