“…This was specifically explored in avocado by two studies identified in the review. Castañeda-Vildózola et al (1999) showed that pesticide application reduced the abundance of native pollinators and consequently reduced avocado yields and Villamil et al (2017) showed that a reduction in intensive orchard management led to an increase in pollinator biodiversity. Similar findings have been observed in many other pollinator reliant crops, and several papers have shown that a reduction in natural habitats or an increase in intensive production leads to a reduction in the abundance and diversity of wild pollinators with negative impacts on yield (Dainese et al, 2019;Garibaldi et al, 2011Garibaldi et al, , 2013Martin et al, 2019;Reilly et al, 2020).…”

“…is native to Central America. Mexico is the largest producer of avocados worldwide [ 21 ], and the worldwide production exceeds three million tons. In the industry, the pulp is used, while the skin and the seeds are discarded.…”

“…Pollinating insects are increasingly threatened and there are evident reductions in abundance and diversity. Such trend can be reversed through a combination of practices that include weeding before fruit harvest (VILLAMIL et al, 2018), conservation of wild flora and management of biological corridors, providing resources and nesting sites, making a targeted use of agrochemicals, and restoring forests and natural areas close to crops (CARABALÍ et al, 2017).…”
