Abstract:
The apiculture activity plays a significant role in the European Union’s economy and agriculture, mainly due to the functions performed by honey bees (Apis mellifera). Thanks to their efforts, more than 80% of crops and plants are pollinated worldwide. Bee’s work is also used to produce products such as honey, royal jelly, propolis, pollen and beeswax, used in chemical, food, medical and pharmaceutical industries. Finally, conducting the apicultural activity contributes also to maintain a proper level of biodiversity of natural ecosystems. Unfortunately, many civilizational and economic transformations and other factors have strongly influenced the apicultural activity, leading to numerous threats to the apiculture sector and the bees. Considering that, it is vital to carry out scientific investigations concerning the apicultural activity, which may provide valuable insight into the ongoing debate regarding the possibility of improving the situation of that sector. In this context, particularly the role of economic and legal research seems to be crucial because, on the one hand, it helps to understand the current economic conditions which characterize the apicultural activity, and, on the other hand, allows us to assess the current regulation and – as a result of that – to prepare a possible proposal for changes to the legislation concerning apiculture. Therefore, this paper aims to answer the following question: is the apicultural sector sufficiently supported and protected against risks related to apiculture, based on the current economic conditions and the existing regulation of apicultural activity.

Abstract:
Apiculture plays a vital role in maintaining a genetically diverse ecosystem and is an economic activity that contributes to the development of rural communities, thereby enhancing the livelihoods of beekeepers. However, despite the presence of over forty thousand beekeepers in Peru, there is currently no cartographic information available on optimal areas for the development of apiculture. Our study focused on assessing the suitability of land for apiculture development in rural and indigenous communities within the Amazonas Department in northwest Peru. We integrated biophysical and socioeconomic criteria using the Multiple Criteria Evaluation (MCE) technique, in conjunction with state-of-the-art geoinformation and earth observation techniques, to model and validate land suitability for supporting apiculture. It was identified that suitability is influenced by biophysical criteria (65%) and socioeconomic criteria (35%), resulting in highly suitable areas covering 315.6 km2 within the territory of peasant communities, 128.4 km2 within native communities, and an additional 41.4 km2 within conserved areas. Furthermore, to validate our results, we combined the use of high-resolution satellite imagery and visits to artisanal producers. This research provides valuable insights for spatiotemporal land use planning, emphasizing apicultural activity as a driver of rural development and biodiversity conservation. Consequently, this study contributes as a management tool to promote apicultural activities as support for rural development and in local-level decision making.

Abstract:
The study adds to extension education knowledge by revealing cultural barriers inhibiting the uptake of apiculture enterprise among women and youths in Maara Sub-County, Kenya. Data were gathered from twenty-three smallholder farmers selected through purposive sampling based on gender and age from Maara Sub-county, Kenya. Data were collected through the use of structured interview schedule. The study revealed that women and youths’ participation in apicultural activities hindered by cultural restrictions which included taboos, inheritance, traditions, and attitudes. The taboos inhibiting female farmers from engaging in apicultural production were; forbidding women from climbing trees, sitting beehives in apiaries, and honey harvesting. Traditions such as the belief that apiculture is meant for elderly men discouraged youths and women entrant to the industry. Only interested and older sons from the farm families could inherit apiaries in the community. A majority of female and young farmers were blinded by the negative attitude they had towards the enterprise hence they could not participate. Even though apprenticeship was the main channel of equipping farmers with apicultural knowledge and skills, personal experiences and social gathering played a vital role. Few farmers also acquired knowledge through formal schooling. Cultural restrictions need to be eased to attract women and young farmers in apiculture production. Extension education would also enhance the adoption of the farm enterprise through dissemination of modern beekeeping technologies.

Abstract:
SUMMARY: Apiculture has great economic significance producing honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, wax and bee venom. In addition to its direct economic benefits, the indirect benefits are even more significant because pollination of wild plants helps preserve ecosystems, while pollination of cultivated plants increases crop yield and quality. During the process of apicultural production beekeepers are exposed to different kinds of danger, adversity and fatigue. Given that in the Republic of Croatia only 7.42% of beekeepers are professionally engaged in apiculture, application of measures established by the Occupational Safety Act is limited. This paper lists all significant beekeeping activities and dangers that arise during their performance and the proposed measures for reducing them. Particular emphasis is placed on the need to establish work safety in apiculture by introducing safety measures through employer-provided training and professional training, and by creating a safe environment for performing everyday beekeeping activities.

Abstract:
The importance of apiculture to the improvement of rural livelihoods and the condition of ecosystems cannot be overemphasized. However, globally, the level of beekeeping is still low. Therefore, it is important to examine the potential to develop apiculture, the extent of beekeeping, and the factors for practicing it in various places. This study explores these themes, focusing on Same District in Tanzania. Two wards with apparently great potential to engage in beekeeping were purposefully selected, and one village was selected from each ward. Structured and in-depth interviews were conducted and remote sensing and geographic information system were deployed to obtain the land cover map indicating the potential to develop apiculture. It was found that Same District has enormous potential to develop apiculture, including, forests, which cover 17,430 hectares, equivalent to 2.8% of the district’s total area, woodland, which covers 65,358 hectares (10.5% of the total area) as well as extensive agricultural land and water bodies. Further, a good road network makes the district more potential to apicultural development. Despite this state of affairs, only 9.5% of the respondents were beekeepers. Low practicing of beekeeping is attributed to limited knowledge, bees’ aggressiveness, lack of capital and lack of access to suitable areas to situate beehives. Moreover, lack of modern beekeeping skills, conflicts, deforestation, bees’ absconding behaviour, and drought hinder the apiculture development. Therefore, it is recommended that farmers be educated on modern beekeeping and environmental management practices to improve bee forage.

Abstract:
This study focused on counselling farmers on improving the yield of flowering crops through integrated apicultural farming for wealth creation. The researchers used a descriptive survey research design and a sample of 50 participants, including traditional bee farmers, staff of agricultural education, and intending apiarists which were purposively selected from a public state owned university, Bamidele Olumilua University of Education, Science and Technology (BOUESTI). Data was collected using a well-structured questionnaire, which was validated by agricultural science and counselling education experts. The instrument's reliability was established through a pilot test, and the data analysis involved descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, and mean scores. The two major focus of the questionnaire was to identify various challenges that hinder subsistence farming of apiculture as wealth creation strategies and to also establish the fear level of those who are interested in bee keeping but are afraid of sting. The challenges identified from the findings of this study included poor credit services, shortage of forage, inadequate training and manpower, poor apiculture policies, diseases affecting honey bees and poor utilization of technology. In addition, the study found that subsistence farmers and intending apiarist exhibited high levels of apiphobia, which negatively impacted their engagement in apiculture. The researchers through group counselling educated participant on strategies for improving apiculture farming, such as effective crop production management, planting of flowering crops like beans, maize, and mango, and selecting suitable apiary locations away from windy areas. To unlearn anxiety and phobia of bee sting, systematic desensitization (a Counselling Therapy) was used to assist both subsistence farmers and intending apiarists.

This research aimed to analyze the organizational structure of the beekeeping activity in the municipalities of Goiás, Silvânia, Vianópolis and Orizona. The research was carried out during February 2016. Data on the conditions of the organizational structure of the beekeeping activity in these three municipalities were collected and analyzed. Semi-structured questionnaires were applied to 28 beekeepers. Questionnaires included questions on social organizational structure, economic organization structure, technological organizational structure, environmental organizational structure and the organizational structure of management. To meet the proposed objectives, the study is based ona literature review, documental research, interviews, application of semi-structured questionnaires and quantitative and qualitative analysis of data from field research. It was shown, that most beekeepers do not adopt good management practices in their business. They do not have an organizational structure that allows produce honey with safety and quality. An organizational structure guided by traditional schemes, with few technologies and maintenance of beekeeping as a secondary activity, has not proved sufficient to achieve and / or sustain competitiveness with other Brazilian states.
Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar a estrutura organizacional da atividade apícola nos municípios goianos, Silvânia, Vianópolis e Orizona. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida durante o mês de fevereiro de 2016, quando foram colhidos e analisados dados sobre as condições da estrutura organizacional da atividade apícola nesses três municípios. Foram aplicados questionários semi- estruturados, em 29 apicultores, nos quais foram levantados dados referentes a estrutura organizacional social, econômica, tecnológica, ambiental e da gestão. Para atender aos objetivos propostos, o estudo sustentou-se em revisão bibliográfica, pesquisa documental, entrevistas, aplicação de questionários semi-estruturados e análise quantitativa e qualitativa dos dados provenientes da pesquisa de campo. Foi evidenciado nessa pesquisa, que as boas práticas de manejo na atividade apícola não são praticadas pela maioria dos apicultores. Não possuem uma estrutura organizacional que permita produzir mel com segurança e qualidade. Uma estrutura organizacional pautada em esquemas tradicionais, com poucas tecnologias e a manutenção da apicultura como atividade secundária, tem se revelado insuficiente para alcançar e/ou sustentar a competitividade com outros estados brasileiros.

Abstract:
Pollination necessary for the agricultural crop production affects the functions of the ecosystems on earth. In landscapes where wild pollinators are decreasing, honey bees promote the maintenance of plant species, therefore honey bee losses are of great concern. Current honey bee colony losses (Apis mellifera) worldwide are caused by Colony collapse disorder, the mite Varroa destructor and pesticides. This results in the honey bees weakened immune defenses making them susceptible to different diseases. Studies show that long-term natural selection for coexistence, or resistance to Varroa mites by honey bees is possible, but further developments are needed for this application in managed beekeeping. Furthermore, lactic acid bacteria found in honey bees can play a crucial role by improving its immune response. At places where apicultural practices have led to decreased amounts of lactic acid bacteria in the bees, supplementary feeding is a possible treatment solution. The beekeepers' observations of mite reproduction dynamics and the overwintering of strong and healthy honey bees are needed to decrease Varroa treatment with synthetic chemicals. Based on this knowledge, a small survey of beekeepers in Örebro County, Sweden, was conducted in an attempt to determine the status of their bees during the last 5 years. The largest colony loss over the past 5 winters was predominantly in 2012-2013. Varroa mite infestations with disease symptoms were primarily found in the central region. Since the survey was small and time was limited it was only possible to make general conclusions. Deeper understanding of lactic acid bacteria in honey bee societies and their inhibition of different diseases are important for future research.

Abstract:
The honey bee, Apis mellifera, is important both ecologically and economically. Pests and diseases are arguably the greatest current challenge faced by honey bees and beekeeping. This PhD thesis is focused on honey bee disease control including natural resistance by means of hygienic behaviour. It contains eleven independent experiments, ten on honey bee pests and diseases and their control and resistance, and one on stingless bees. Each is written as a separate chapter, Chapters 4 and 14 of this thesis. Chapter 4: How effective is Apistan® at killing varroa? This shows that Apistan is not very effective at killing varroa, presumably because of resistance. It also shows that a single Apistan treatment resulted in the next treatment being significantly less effective, indicating strong selection for resistance. Chapter 5: Towards integrated control of varroa: comparing application methods and doses of oxalic acid on the mortality of phoretic Varroa destructor mites and their honey bee hosts. This shows that oxalic acid can be highly effective at killing varroa mites under beekeeping conditions in broodless hives in winter. However, varroa mortality is affected by application method and dose. In addition, bee and colony mortality and colony performance are also affected by application method and dose. The results of this chapter shows that sublimation is the best method, in that it gives greater varroa mortality at lower doses, and results in no harm to the colonies. In fact, colonies treated via sublimation had significantly more brood in spring that controls, and lower winter mortality, although this difference was not significant. Chapter 6: Towards integrated control of varroa: varroa mortality from treating broodless winter colonies twice with oxalic acid via sublimation. This shows that two treatments of 2.25 g oxalic acid via sublimation at an interval of 2 weeks in broodless honey bee colonies in winter result in greater varroa mortality than a single treatment, 99.6% vs. 97%. Making a second oxalic acid treatment was not harmful as the performance (frames of brood, queen and colony survival) of the twice-treated colonies over the next 4 months was not significantly different to the once-treated control colonies. Chapter 7: Towards integrated control of varroa: Efficacy of early spring trapping in drone brood. This indicates that trapping in drone brood in spring is probably not sufficiently effective to be able to control varroa populations on its own. It shows that trapping varroa in capped drone cells in early spring is not highly effective at controlling varroa. The first and second test frames of drone foundation removed 44% and 48% of the varroa, respectively. Chapter 8: Towards integrated control of varroa: Monitoring honey bee brood rearing in winter and the proportion of varroa in small patches of sealed cells. This shows that December is the month with the least brood. However, winter reduction in brood rearing varied among years and even in December some colonies still had sealed brood. Although the amounts of sealed brood were low, even a small patch of c. 500-600 sealed cells could contain 14% of the varroa in a colony. This will halve the duration of control provided by an oxalic acid treatment. Chapter 9: Towards integrated control of varroa: effect of variation in hygienic behaviour among honey bee colonies on mite population increase and deformed wing virus incidence. This shows clearly that hygienic behaviour reduces the one-year population growth of varroa in honey bee colonies by more than 50% and reduces the levels of deformed wing virus by more than 1000 times. Chapter 10: Hygienic behaviour saves the lives of honey bee colonies. This shows that hygienic behaviour saves the lives of honey bee colonies with shrivelled wings, a visible symptom of deformed wing virus that is considered a predictor of colony death. Over one year, only 2 of 11 colonies requeened with a non-hygienic queen survived, versus 13 of 15 requeened with a hygienic queen. Chapter 11: Hygienic behaviour by non-hygienic honey bee colonies: all colonies remove dead brood from open cells. This shows that all honey bee colonies are highly hygienic in response to dead or diseased brood in open cells. All larvae killed by freezing with liquid nitrogen and larvae with chalkbrood disease were removed. This was true even for colonies with low levels of removal of dead brood from sealed cells, which would be considered as non-hygienic colonies. Chapter 12: Removal of larvae infected by different strains of chalk brood and other fungi by hygienic and non-hygienic bee colonies. This shows that hygienic and non-hygienic honey bee colonies are highly hygienic in response to diseased larvae killed with different strains of fungus in open cells. Chapter 13: Hygienic behaviour in Brazilian stingless bees. This shows that the three stingless bee species studied (Melipona scutellaris, Scaptotrigona depilis, Tetragonisca angustula) all have high levels of hygienic behaviour, quantified as the removal of freeze-killed brood, in comparison to the honey bee Apis mellifera. In S. depilis there was considerable variation in hygienic behaviour among colonies, and hygienic colonies removed more brood affected by a naturally-occurring disease which we discovered and for which the causative agent remains to be identified. Chapter 14: First record of small hive beetle, Aethina tumida Murray, in South America. This reports the discovery of adult small hive beetles, Aethina tumida, in honey bee, Apis mellifera, hives in an apiary in Brazil, in March 2015. This is the first record for South America of this honey bee pest.

Abstract:
In recent years honeybees have attracted a great deal of attention, an attention that seems to be rather unlikely when one looks at the general relationship between humans and the environment, which is often taken for granted. This study aims to look into one kind of corporate initiative in urban apiculture to reconnect humans and nature again. In particular the focus is on motivation, implementation and the impact these initiatives have on sustainable development. A transdisciplinary approach has been adopted that combines different perspectives of beekeepers in the field, scholars and business. It is thereby important to note that adopting apiculture as part of a corporate sustainability strategy is a rather recent trend, which reflects both the scope and the results of the study. This study has found the primary motivation behind apiculture projects for corporations to be raising awareness about the fate of honeybees (Apis mellifera) and supporting honeybee population numbers. This also reflects in the impact on sustainable development. Not only does the urban environment offer an ideal habitat that shows benefits for honeybee health and their honey, but honeybees also benefit the urban environment through their pollination services. And although the connection between corporations and apiculture seems to be alien at first glance, benefits also extend to the corporations themselves, including a greater identification with the corporation by its employees, more cooperation both within one corporation and with other corporations and more publicity. Urban apiculture can thus help reconnecting society and nature in different ways. However, the greater the abundance of honeybees the more limited seem their benefits and initially positive impacts might even turn negative. To prevent this, the study therefore concludes that it is important to decide about the extent in which urban apiculture is adopted on a case by case basis that is possibly supplemented by planting additional forage.

The brazilian sac brood (BSB) is a described disease in Brazil that attacks honey bees when they are fed with the pollen of certain trees as Stryphnodendron (Mimosoidea), commonly known as barbatim?o . These plants contain toxic substances as tannins that lead to a high mortality at the pre-pulps. The crescent loss of hives at different periods and regions of Rio de Janeiro state associated to the difficulty of finding the trees suspected of being intoxicated near the infected apiaries permits suggesting a hypothesis that the disease is not caused by the barbatim?o pollen. It still raises hypothesis that the bee diseases represent a significant cause for the hives losses observed in the state of Rio de Janeiro. To verify the hypothesis it was evaluated a survey of beekeeping losses, it was analyzed the geographical overlap between occurrence of BSB and distribution of S. pollyphyllum and S. adstringens. And also for this reason it was made the check out the pollen consumption of these plants for the Apis at natural conditions and it was initiated microbiological and toxic investigations. For the first approach it was researched the extension, distribution and reasons for the hive losses and its relation to the bees diseases. For this, the 2006 apiarian census was consulted. A comparative study was done in relation to the area of occurrence of BSB and the simultaneous existence of Stryphnodendron and the pollinic types specially of the barbatim?o that were present in the hives samples. Finally it was isolated and identified bacteria, fungi and mycotoxins in the apiarian pollen, bee bread and dead larvae of bee hives with BSB. The results of the census allowed seeing that the bees disease was the main reason for the loss of the hives. There wasn t the superposition between the BSB Stryphnodendron in Rio de Janeiro. It wasn t observed Stryphnodendron pollen in none of the analyzed samples. The results suggest that the disease that occurs in Rio de Janeiro state with similar symptoms to BSB is not caused by barbatim?o pollen. The Anadenanthera pollen was the majority in the study regions. Bacillus was the most frequent bacteria genus and the species were B. thuringiensis, B. alvei, B. apiarius, B. megaterium and B. polymyxa. The mycobiota was mainly composed of Penicillium and Aspergillus, with two potentially pathogenic and toxic species: A. niger and A. parasiticus. Aflatoxins B1 and G1 were presented in apiarian pollen and bee bread samples of a studied apiarian. It is necessary to realize other researches to confirm the etiology of BSB in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
A cria ensacada brasileira (CEB) ? uma doen?a descrita no Brasil que acomete as larvas de abelhas mel?feras quando s?o alimentadas com o p?len de algumas ?rvores tais como Stryphnodendron (Mimosoidea), conhecidas popularmente por barbatim?o . Estas plantas cont?m subst?ncias t?xicas, como os taninos, que provocam uma alta mortalidade nas larvas pr?-pupas. A crescente perda de colm?ias em diferentes ?pocas e regi?es do estado do Rio de Janeiro associada ? dificuldade de encontrar as ?rvores incriminadas como t?xicas nas proximidades de api?rios afetados pela CEB, permite sugerir a hip?tese de que a doen?a n?o ? causada pelo p?len do barbatim?o neste estado. Levanta-se ainda a hip?tese de que as doen?as de abelhas representam uma causa significativa para as perdas de colm?ias observadas no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Para testar estas hip?teses, objetivou-se fazer um levantamento da ocorr?ncia de perdas de colm?ias, analisar a sobreposi??o da CEB com a distribui??o geogr?fica de S. pollyphyllum e S. adstringens, verificar o consumo do p?len destas plantas pelas Apis em condi??es naturais e iniciar investiga??es microbiol?gicas e toxicol?gicas. Na fase preliminar, pesquisou-se a extens?o, distribui??o e causas de perdas de colm?ias e a sua rela??o com as doen?as de abelhas. Para isto, foram levantados dados de perdas relativos ao censo ap?cola elaborado no estado do Rio em 2006. Realizou-se tamb?m um estudo comparativo entre o zoneamento da CEB e o de Stryphnodendron no estado do Rio de Janeiro. Posteriormente, buscaram-se os tipos pol?nicos, especialmente de barbatim?o , presentes em amostras de colm?ias localizadas em regi?es de ocorr?ncia da CEB. Finalmente, isolaram-se e identificaram-se bact?rias e fungos presentes em amostras de p?len ap?cola, p?o de abelhas e larvas mortas de colm?ias com CEB, e investigou-se a presen?a de micotoxinas. Resultados do censo do estado mostraram que as doen?as de abelhas constitu?ram a principal causa de perdas de colm?ias. N?o houve sobreposi??o entre a ocorr?ncia da cria ensacada brasileira e a de Stryphnodendron no estado do Rio de Janeiro e tamb?m n?o foi observado p?len de Stryphnodendron em qualquer amostra analisada, indicando que: a doen?a que ocorre no estado do Rio de Janeiro com sintomas semelhantes a CEB n?o ? causada pelo p?len de barbatim?o . Prevaleceu durante a CEB p?len de Anadenanthera. Bacillus foi a bact?ria mais freq?ente, identificando-se: B. thuringiensis, B. alvei, B. apiarius, B. megaterium e B. polymyxa. A micobiota foi composta principalmente por Penicillium e Aspergillus, este com duas esp?cies potencialmente patog?nicas e tox?genas: A. niger e A. parasiticus. Aflatoxinas B1 e G1 estiveram presentes em amostras de p?len ap?cola e p?o de abelhas de um api?rio pesquisado. Faz-se necess?rio realizar outros estudos para afirmar a etiologia da CEB no estado do Rio de Janeiro.

Abstract:
This thesis is an examination of the practices and products found in the Australian pollination services industry. Interdisciplinary methods from design and science were used to discover and document issues and inefficiencies found within migratory beekeeping practices for both beekeepers and bees and provide recommendations for their mitigation. Novel sensing systems were created to analyse bee colony parameters and link them to important industry metrics that are currently manually assessed, such as bee colony strength. The research led to the creation of the new QUT experimental apiary at the Samford Ecological Research Facility where honey bee research is ongoing.

Abstract:
The growth of the world population, the technical-scientific and socio-economic evolution have led to the increase of the need for food products and the diversification of their range. Under these conditions, beekeeping acquires an increasingly important role as a food supply (honey) but also as a vector of growth of agricultural vegetal production through crop pollination. It also provides various products with a role in maintaining the health of the population through products with high prophylactic and therapeutic value. From a social and economic point of view, it is recognized that this branch of activity contributes to ensuring the prosperity of the population, especially in rural areas, through an additional source of income and the superior use of natural and human resources. In addition, beekeeping takes on an increased importance by supporting and stimulating the natural environment through the undeniable effects on floral biodiversity. Beekeeping is practiced in all European countries, to a greater or lesser extent. And compared to other agricultural branches, where the investments are necessary to start the activity and the expenses for current activities are much higher, in beekeeping all these are located at a much more reasonable level. Another important aspect that needs to be maintained is related to technological development, in beekeeping activity there is no need for highly advanced techniques and technologies to obtain quality products, but involvement is needed. Beekeeping is the branch of agriculture in which Romania could play an important role at European level, but as in other agricultural branches, a critical point in beekeeping is the association and the marketing of products. Within this work, a brief analysis of beekeeping within the European Union is carried out, the extent of this activity as several persons involved in each state, the number of hives and productions obtained, using descriptive statistical methods and graphic processing of the obtained data.

Abstract:
The trends in the change of the profitability of Bulgarian beekeeping starting from the country’s accession to the European Union (EU) in 2007 to the present 2020, are being studied, depending on the changes in the market price of honey and its prime cost. The survey was conducted among selected apiaries in North-eastern Bulgaria. It has been found that they achieve a small net profit when selling conventional honey in the organizational markets – EUR 3.78 kg-1. The realization of organic honey as a raw material in the organizational markets is not profitable for them. The apiaries have a net profit of EUR 7.98 kg-1 for conventional and EUR 7.91 kg-1 for organic honey, with distribution to a consumer market sale. The apiaries in Ruse district achieve 10.26% profitability of turnover in sales on conventional consumer markets, 8.83% in organic consumer markets and 8.2% in organizational conventional markets. Improving their profitability requires: 1) marketing strategies, through regional and cross-sectoral integration; 2) the production of royal jelly, pollen and propolis with high added value; 3) introduction of new technologies, increase in labour productivity, and 4) state subsidies to a hive for ecosystem pollination service.

Abstract:
La formación no debe limitarse al entorno de las aulas. El diseño de planes de formación que fomenten habilidades y nuevas destrezas se configura como una alternativa estratégica clave, especialmente en países en desarrollo. En éstos, el mundo rural puede ofrecer una oportunidad para salir de la pobreza y una opción para aumentar sus ingresos, ya que los negocios familiares requieren con frecuencia poco capital. Con este objetivo en mente, el presente trabajo muestra como se ha desarrollado el programa de formación de las pequeñas poblaciones rurales de Nampula (Mozambique), dentro del Programa ADSIDEO - Cooperación 2020, del Centro de cooperación al desarrollo de la Universitat Politécnica de Valencia. Para ello, lo primero fue conocer sus necesidades y definir el perfil de apicultor. Los resultados mostraron que la apicultura que se practica es tradicional, los apicultores tienen pocas colmenas a su cargo, están poco tecnificados y viven en las zonas rurales. Por otra parte, se observó que las principales necesidades de formación se centraban en los aspectos de manejo, extracción y almacenamiento. Teniendo en cuenta estos aspectos, se ha diseñado el procedimiento de formación, con cuatro cursos; tres de ellos dirigidos a formar un técnico en las cooperativas apícolas que sirva de apoyo técnico, y un cuarto curso dirigido a los propios apicultores centrado en corrigir prácticas inadecuadas que pueden alterar la seguridad o calidad de la miel. En cuanto a las metodologías a utilizar se propone principalmente el aprendizaje cooperativo aplicando la gamificacion en la evaluación, buscando el apoyo entre los apicultores y potenciando la idea de un objetivo común que mejore su situación económica y social.

Abstract:
Objectives: The Israeli work plan regarding HBTM included: (a) producing a better diagnostic method; (b) following infestations during the season and evaluating damage to resistant bees and, (c) controlling HBTM by conventional means under local conditions. For varroa our plans to try novel control (e.g. oil novel control (e.g. oil patties & essential oils) were initially delayed by very low pest populations, then disrupted by the emergence of fluvalinate resistance. We monitored the spread of resistance to understand it better, and analyzed an underlying biochemical resistance mechanism in varroa. The US work plan focused on novel management methods for both mites with an emphasis on reducing use of traditional insecticides due to resistance and contamination issues. Objectives were: (a) evaluating plant essential oils for varroa control; (b) exploring the vulnerability of varroa to desiccation for their management; and (c) looking for biological variation in HBTM that could explain virulence variability between colonies. Although the initial PI at the USDA Beltsville Bee Lab, W.A. Bruce, retired during the project we made significant strides especially on varroa water balance. Subcontracts were performed by Yoder (Illinois College) on varroa water balance and DeGrandi-Hoffman (USDA) who evaluated plant essential oils for their potential to control varroa. We devised an IPM strategy for mite control i the U.S. Background: Mites that parasitize honey bees are a global problem. They are threatening the survival of managed and feral bees, the well-being of commercial/hobby beekeeping, and due to pollination, the future of some agricultural commodities is threatened. Specific economic consequences of these mites are that: (a) apiculture/breeder business are failing; (b) fewer colonies exist; (c) demand and cost for hive leasing are growing; (d) incidences of bee pathogens are increasing; and, (e) there are ore problems with commercial-reared bees. As a reflection of the continued significance f bee mites, a mite book is now in press (Webster & delaplane, 2000); and the 2nd International Conference on Africanized Honey Bees and Bee Mites is scheduled (April, 2000, Arizona). The first such conference was at OSU (1987, GRN was co-organizer). The major challenge is controlling two very different mites within a colony while not adversely impacting the hive. Colony management practices vary, as do the laws dictating acaricide use. Our basic postulates were that: (a) both mites are of economic importance with moderate to high infestations but not at low rates and, (b) once established they will not be eradicated. A novel strategy was devised that deals with the pests concomitantly by maintaining populations at low levels, without unnecessary recourse to synthetic acaricides. Major Conclusions, Solutions, Achievements: A major recent revelation is that there are several species of "Varroa jacobsoni" (Anderson & Trueman 1999). Work on control, resistance, population dynamics, and virulence awaits knowing whether this is a problem. In the U.S. there was no difference between varroa from three locales in terms of water balance parameters (AZ, MN & PA), which bodes well for our work to date. Winter varroa (U.S.) were more prone to desiccation than during other seasons. Varroa sensitivity to desiccation has important implications for improving IPM. Several botanicals showed some promise for varroa control (thymol & origanum). Unfortunately there is varroa resistance to Apistan in Israel but a resistance mechanism was detected for the first time. The Israel team also has a new method for HBTM diagnosis. Annual tracheal mite population trends in Israel were characterized, which will help in targeting treatment. Effects of HBTM on honey yields were shown. HBTM control by Amitraz was demonstrated for at least 6 months. Showing partial resistance by Buckfast bees to HBTM will be an important IPM tactic in Israel and U.S.
