Abstract

The objective of this paper was to estimate the Economic Value of the Animal Pollination Service (VESP) of the agricultural crops dependent on pollination at Brazilian Center-West region from 2010 to 2018 period, year by year and in present values of 2018, in addition to discussing the main causes and implications of pollinator reduction and proposing strategies to mitigate the problem. The VESP was estimated from the value of production and the ratio of crops dependent on pollination. The VESP represented approximately 1/4 of the total value of agricultural production. Changes in land use and cover and the use of agrochemicals were some causes of pollinators reduction and the restoration of native vegetation and biological diversity some strategies to mitigate the problem.
