Pollinator Subcommittee

The Pollinator Subcommittee (to be initiated in FY2023) will be the newest subcommittee of the National Agricultural Research, Extension Education, and Economics (NAREEE) Advisory Board. The Board is led by staff in the Office of the Chief Scientist (OCS), in the Research, Education, and Economics (REE) Mission Area.

This subcommittee is advisory in nature and members will be asked to make pollinator health-related recommendations, reviews, and consultations to the NAREEE Advisory Board (and subsequently to REE, other USDA mission areas, and federal pollinator coordinators) on national priorities, research needs, and best available science in informing USDA pollinator-related policy and program decisions.

With 17 offices with pollinator portfolios, USDA supports the critical role pollinators play in agriculture through research and data collections, diagnostic services and pollinator health monitoring, pollinator habitat enhancement programs, pollinator health grants, and financial assistance programs.
