Abstract

Tetragonula sp. is one of stingless bee species nesting in bamboos hive and produced honey, bee bread, and propolis. The objective of this study was to evaluate the exit activity of foragers, honey pots number, honey volume in each pot, and production of honey from stingless bee Tetragonula sp. Thirty colonies of stingless bee Tetragonula sp. from bamboo hives were divided into two groups: bamboo and box hives, each group consisted of 15 colonies. The colonies were transferred in the night to avoid stress in the bees consisting of a queen bee, foragers, drones, and brood cells. The colonies were beekeeping one-month in Sukadana Bee Village, North Lombok, Indonesia. The exit activity in the morning and afternoon of foragers from stingless bee Tetragonula sp. in the box hives was higher than in bamboos hive. The honey pots number, honey volume in each pot, and honey production (big, medium, and small pots) in box hives were higher than in bamboo hives.
