Bee plays an important role in pollinating flowering plants, and are the major type of pollinators in ecosystems that contain flowering plants. Bee may focus on gathering nectar or on gathering pollen, depending on their greater need at the time, especially in social species. Bee gathering nectar may accomplish pollination, but bee that are deliberately gathering pollen are more efficient pollinators. It is estimated that one third of the human food supply depends on insect pollination, most of this accomplished by bee.
Bee are extremely important as pollinators in agriculture, especially the domesticated Western honey bee, with contract pollination having overtaken the role of honey production for beekeepers in many countries. Monoculture and pollinator decline (of many bee species) have increasingly caused honey bee keepers to become migratory so that bee can be concentrated in areas of pollination need at the appropriate season. Recently, many such migratory beekeepers have experienced substantial losses, prompting the announcement of investigation into the phenomenon, dubbed "Colony Collapse Disorder," amidst great concern over the nature and extent of the losses.
