Book excerpt: Losses of pollinators threaten agricultural production, the maintenance of natural plant communities, and the important services provided by those ecosystems. This Strategy by the White House Pollinator Health Task Force outlines a comprehensive approach to tackling and reducing the impact of multiple stressors on pollinator health, including pests and pathogens, reduced habitat, lack of nutritional resources, and exposure to pesticides. Building on the current state of the science, and with a renewed emphasis on expanding our understanding of the complex interactions among the various factors impacting pollinator health, the Strategy lays out current and planned Federal actions to reduce honey bee colony losses; increase the Eastern population of the monarch butterfly; and restore or enhance 7 million acres of land for pollinators over the next 5 years through Federal actions and public/private partnerships.
