 Pollination by animals is essential for the production of many food crops, as it helps to ensure high quality and quantity of harvests. This study examined the impact of animal pollination on various aspects of crop quality, such as appearance and nutrition. The results showed that pollination has a significant effect on the quality of fruits and vegetables, but only a minor effect on other types of crops. Additionally, pollination did not significantly affect the quality of stimulants or spices. The authors also found evidence of a possible decline in pollinator services, although this was not statistically significant. Overall, these findings suggest that pollination is still adequate to support crop quality, but further research should be conducted to determine whether there are any long-term implications of this decline.
