Plants can’t get up and go find a mate. They rely on other things, such as wind, insects or animals to pick up their pollen and carry it to other plants.

Bees pretty much exclusively feed on pollen, so they carry it with them plant to plant.

The importance of bees in the role is overstated but bees do a good enough job of ensuring high fertilization rates, which translates into high fruiting rates, that it can make sense to pull back on the insecticide despite pest damage.
