Abstract One of the most important issues related to landscape ecology and ecosystem services is finding pattern habitat patches that offers highest pollination in agricultural landscapes. In this regard, two processes loss fragmentation strongly affect relationship between patches. present study, we aimed examine effects on separately. For purpose, first, generated different simulated landscapes, including habitats forest agriculture. Then, according Lonsdorf model, estimated potential landscapes providing scenarios. Finally, using statistical models, at farm levels. Our results showed were completely At level, negatively affected pollination, but maximum rate was observed with a high degree fragmentation. Regarding effects, our decreased linearly level as amount decreased, it exponentially. The study considered analysis (i.e., levels) critical factor affecting changes caused by We model could lead confusing for ecologists alert farmers who want reduce adverse their products creating new Therefore, agriculturalists should consider levels provide contradictory about process pollination.

Honey bees and beekeeping belong to a large enterprise where the managers are beekeepers, workers bees, products generated ecosystem goods services, mostly intangible. Evidence for reduction in number of pollinating insects planet due causes that still being studied has put spotlight on activity (wild managed) their extraordinary capacity contribute pollination. The aim present work was detect, identify, analyze set environmental, socioeconomic, sociocultural utilities (goods services) by honey order identify possible interrelationships between them. demonstrate these utilities, far from watertight, interconnected, which will help increase value highlight positive externalities (genetic diversity landscape, among others). This research begins with an overview some seminal articles, published mainly last three years, were searched following review using keywords major databases. After reading articles others referenced, we analyzed main relationships contribution our results is determination interrelated, could increasing value.

Wild and managed bees provide pollination services to crops wild plants, as well a variety of other beneficial humans. Honey are the most economically valuable pollinator worldwide. It has been calculated that 9.5% total economic value agricultural production comes from insect pollination, thus amounting just under USD 200 billion globally. More than 100 important depend on by honey bees. The latter pollinate not only wide number commercial but also many some which threatened extinction constitute genetic resource. Moreover, pollinators, play significant role in every aspect ecosystem facilitating growth trees, flowers, plants serve food shelter for large small creatures. In this paper, we describe how reduction bee populations affects various sectors, human health.

One hypothesized cause the declines is pesticide use; neonicotinoids pyrethroids particular have been shown to pernicious effects laboratory field experiments, linked population a few focal species.

Four Kebeles were randomly selected for 133 household heads (52 program participants 81 non-participants) using simple random sampling method. Information was gathered an interview schedule, focus-group discussions, key informant interviews. Data analyzed binary logistic regression model, propensity score matching, participation index (PI), t-test, chi-square test. The results showed that implemented rehabilitation measures had higher crop production farm income most adopter households compared their counterparts. model revealed slope farmland, gender heads, family size, perception rehabilitation, access training, experience positively influenced programme (CBLRP) area.
