"This is an excellent book which advocates for the conservation of biodiversity in agro-ecosystems. The use of agrochemicals especially pesticides and chemical fertilizers are a threat to insect pollinators of passion fruit. I commend this book to you who is in desperate need to understand the relationship between ecosystem functions and ecosystem service providers. It is a must read for those pursing a career in environmental management, ecology and conservation biology". Proffessor Gideon Nyamasyo Department of Entomology School of Biological Sciences University of Nairobi Chiromo Campus.
