Andre read the following information on the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) website while researching for a report on honeybees. Pollinators are a vital part of agricultural production. In the United States, more than one-third of all crop production – 90 crops ranging from nuts to berries to flowering vegetables - requires insect pollination. Managed honeybee colonies are our primary pollinators, adding at least $15 billion a year by increasing yields and helping to ensure superior-quality harvests.
However, our beekeepers have been steadily losing colonies. The number of honeybee hives in this country has decreased from 6 million in the 1940s to about 2.5 million today.
Which of the following is the best way for Andre to include some of this information in his report while avoiding plagiarism?
Select one:

Managed honeybee colonies are our primary pollinators.

“More than 100 crops in the United States require insect pollination.”

“Pollinators are an important part of agriculture.”
