Species of fruit trees identified in the popular council Pogolotti-Finlay-Belén-Husillo that contribute to food security and have potential for nectar and pollen for Beekeeping.
Main Article Content
Abstract
The research is focused on the identification of fruit and forest species in the Popular Council Pogolotti-Finlay-Belén-Husillo with potential of nectar and pollen for beekeeping that intervenes in the production of honey and contributes to food security. A floristic inventory was carried out in the period from May to June, using the transept band method and in this way botanical material was collected for its corresponding identification in the Julián Acuña herbarium of the Agroforestry Research Institute (INAF). The taxonomic classification of the species identified in the area under study with honey potentialities and that contribute to the food security of the council was carried out. It also highlights the economic, social and environmental effects that would bring the insertion of an apiary in this área due to its variety of honey flora and propose four species with honey potential for reforestation and favoring beekeeping activity.
