However, natural pollinators are increasingly affected by multiple threats, including habitat loss and fragmentation, intensive agricultural development, and climate change, putting their sustainability at serious risk. As a complement to natural pollination services, artificial pollination plays an important role in guaranteeing food security amid the decline of natural pollinators and growing global food demand. In this study, a comprehensive review was conducted on the categories and applications of artificial pollination, along with recommendations for integrating advanced technology-driven approaches with agronomic practices to enhance targeted production. Implementation of artificial pollination is governed by the physiological characteristics of crops and employs two technical routes to determine whether the additional pollen application is required. Variety of advancements in pollination technologies and devices have been developed, with autonomous pollination systems featuring flower sensing, task planning, and precise execution gaining increasing attention. Although artificial pollination has shown increasing promise with technological advancements, the timing of pollinating, the optimal amount of pollen to be applied, and its ecological sustainability still require collaborative efforts among agronomists, technology developers and producers. Such multilateral cooperation is essential for continued development and practical application.  aPolinização  aPolinização Artificial  aArtificial pollination  aAutonomous pollination  aMechanized pollination  aMultilateral cooperation  aPolinização mecânica1 aLIU, X.1 aDING, Y.1 aJING, X.1 aDANG, H.1 aMURENGAMI, B.
