Honey Bee Impact on Home Gardens

Hi All:

It's generally well known that honey bees benefit home gardeners, but I'm looking for a source that quantifies this benefit in some way. I've seen statistics like 30% of the US food supply can be attributed to honey bee activity, but nothing that provides data for home gardens.

Does anyone know of a source for this? I'm looking for a factoid like "you can expect about 20% more squash if you have a hive on your property" etc

Thanks

-Mark
