Efecto polinizador de las abejas (Nannotrigona testaceicornis) en cultivo de pepino en el vivero de la ESPAM-MFL

The pollinating effect of bees (Nannotrigona Testaceicornis) was evaluated through the implementation of conventional and organic plots in the nursery of the ESPAM MFL. A design (2x2 factorial DCA with 3 repetitions) was carried out, with a total of 12 experimental units, with a crop density of 3 plants per square meter, that is, each experimental unit with 18 plants. Conventional agricultural techniques were applied to treatments T1 and T3, such as the use of an agrochemical product (Yaramila was applied 15 days after transplantation), while organic treatments (Biol) was applied twice a week were used in treatments T2 and T4. Soil analyzes show favorable results with a pH of 7.98 and 6.85. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed using InfoStat version 2019e, where data was taken from the factors under study, determining that the organic crop with the presence of bees increased by 13% in relation to the culture without bees, emphasizing the influence of pollinating insects on increasing production and improving the quality of crops. And the final phase of this research focused on the elaboration of a thematic guide of stingless bees that allows to inform about its importance and usefulness.
