Probably poor pollination. thats all. grow beneficial insect cover plants to draw them near the garden. (Honey bees are great but not everyone has bees enough to cover the crop and the crop needs to be large enough to draw bees to the garden. they want to work the same nectar source all day long). this needs to be a plot near your garden and left undisturbed. you need to treat it like a perennial. grow many annual and perennial plants that flower with small flowers. umbillifers such as queen annes lace, dill, parsley, yarrow, alyssum, etc, small flowered plants are the preference of most of them.
