Protecting an ecosystem service: approaches to understanding and mitigating threats to wild insect pollinators (2016, background): “…(see Table 1), placing the 125 value of insect pollination for world agriculture > €150bn (Gallai et al., 2009; Lautenbach et 126 al., 2012), as well as being of high aesthetic and cultural value through supporting florally 127 diverse landscapes (Lovell and Sullivan, 2006; Wratten et al., 2012).”
Mitigation strategies to reduce pesticide inputs into ground- and surface water and their effectiveness; a review. (2007, unknown): “Finally, Lovell and Sullivan (2006) identified the lack of knowledge on the effect and effectiveness of buffers at watershed scale as one of the reasons why buffers are still underused in US agroecosystems.”
