NIFA recently awarded 10 grants(link is external) for Pollinator Health research to sustain healthy populations of pollinators, which are crucial to the nation’s food security and environmental health. Pollinators play a vital role in the production of healthy crops for food, fiber, and other agricultural uses.
Pollinator health projects address the current problem of declining populations of managed and wild pollinators, such as bees, wasps, flies, butterflies, moths, beetles, and bats. These grants are a part of NIFA’s Agriculture and Food Research Initiative program.
