The degradation of natural habitats has significant negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services such as pollination, which is essential for food production. The restoration of degraded lands can play an important role in conserving biodiversity and enhancing ecosystem services. Honeybees are one of the most important pollinators, and their health and survival depend on the availability of diverse and high-quality habitats. The goal of this research project is to investigate the effectiveness of ecological restoration strategies in improving honeybee habitat in degraded landscapes.
