Determinación del ciclo biológico de Melipona indecisa "Cananambo", para la producción de miel en dos tipos de cajas.

The research work "Determination of the biological cycle of Melipona indecisa" cananambo ", for honey production in two types of boxes" was carried out in Marcabeli. Due to the fact that there have not yet been studies related to the M. indecisa biological cycle, there is limited knowledge that prevents people from implementing artificial separations techniques, with the purpose of increasing the number of colonies for honey and pollen production. In addition, the use of non-specialized boxes, makes it difficult to apply management techniques to optimize the production and quality of honey. In order to determine the biological cycle, 276 cells of the honeycombs were placed in a single box for a follow up process, after 26 days they were transferred to an incubator at a temperature of 29°C and an average relative humidity of 60%, in which daily observations were made until the adult individuals emerged. To compare the production of honey, 6 colonies of M. indecisa were used, of which 3 were transferred to traditional boxes and 3 to improved boxes. The M. indecisa queen bees emerged at 51.13 days, followed by the worker bees at 52.47 and finally the males at 54.23. The number of worker bees was higher compared to the males and queen bees, representing 80%, compared to 9% of males and 6% of queen bees. The production of honey was limited and similar amounts were obtained in both box models, in the traditional box 0.032 kg and 0.037 kg in the optimized box.
