Resumen: Recent evidence highlights the value of wild-insect species richness and abundance for crop pollination world-wide. Yet, deliberate physical importation of single species (eg European honey bees) into crop fields for polli-nation remains the mainstream management approach, and implementation of practices to enhance cropyield (production per area) through wild insects is only just beginning. With few exceptions, studies measur-ing the impacts of pollinator-supporting practices on wild-insect richness and pollination service success – par-ticularly in relation to long-term crop yield and economic profit – are rare. Here, we provide a general frame-work and examples of approaches for enhancing pollinator richness and abundance, quantity and quality ofpollen on stigmas, crop yield, and farmers’ profit, including some benefits detected only through long-termmonitoring. We argue for integrating the promotion of wild-insect species richness with single-species man-agement to benefit farmers and society.
