Choices: The Magazine of Food, Farm, and Resource Issues, 2019, vol. 34, issue 4

Abstract: This theme discusses the origins, operations, and institutions of pollination markets with two main results. First, farmers utilize well-developed markets for pollination services when necessary rather than leaving pollination to chance. Second, increased demand for pollination services from California almond orchards has reshaped the revenue structure of the beekeeping industry.
