Importance of honeybees as prime pollinators for continual maintenence of crop-diversity and need of their conservation for sustainable agriculture is highlighted based on literature review. Somatic, reproductive and adaptive heterosis or hybrid effects that occur in plant progeny as a result of natural cross-pollination by honeybees brings about significant qualitative and quantitative changes in the economic and biological characteristics of crop plants. Honeybees often facilitate genetic enrichment of native plants through crosspollination offering to their varietal development and adaptation in the changing environment. The natural environment is required to provide bees with habitat or nesting sites. Promotion of organic farming and integrated pest management programs are necessitated.  Keywords: Eco-system; Honeybees; Pollinators; Cross-pollination; Sustainable agricultureThe Journal of Agriculture and Environment Vol:.9, Jun. 2008  Page: 90-92

Sustainable Agriculture aims to achieve a lot of accomplishments, mainly; the production of the humanitarian needs of food and clothing. Improving the quality of environment and natural resource base of the agricultural economy. Optimize the use of non-renewable energy and resources in the fields and integration between biological control methods and natural biological cycles, whenever possible. Sustainability in field production improving the quality of life of farmers and the community. Necessary to know that, Organic and sustainable are not quite synonyms, because organic standards leave some practices that are not optimal from a sustainability, and not all farmers who use sustainable practices qualify for constructions or choose to follow it. Plant pathology research and extension work has historically emphasized integration of several control strategies and fits both historical and modern definitions of IPM. This article deals with the fundamental values of sustainable agriculture, definitions that explain on integrated pest management, program essentials to achieve the IPM included sustainable development in terms of Plant Diseases. This article also highlights the Impact of IPM on Plant Health, Pesticide use and yield, and IPM and sustainable development in terms of Plant Diseases. Keywords: Plant Health; Pest management; Sustainability; Definitions; IPM
