Abstract

The honey bee farming business has a great opportunity to be developed at this time. Cultivation activities can be carried out in yards, gardens, and even in the forest. The main problem in beekeeping is the availability of feed sources. It is important for Omah Tawon Mataram (OTM) as a newly established beekeeper to pay attention to the availability of feed sources at all times. For this reason, in this study, an analysis was carryout of the availability of feed sources at the Omah Tawon Mataram honey bee cultivation site. The research was carried out at OTM honey beekeeping location in August-November 2021. The research data collected was to identify the types of plants for honey bees feed. Identification of food for honey bees is carried out through direct data collection in the field followed by a literature study. The flowering time of plants was carried out through literature studies and analyzed descriptively. The results showed that of the 26 species of plants in the location, 17 species became a source of food for honey bees. 1 species from the families Arecaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Meliaceae, Anacardiaceae, Apocynaceae, Lythraceae, and Musaceae; 2 species from Verbenaceae; 3 species from Malvaceae; and 5 species from Fabaceae. Various types of feed sources have different flowering periods that affect the availability of feed sources. Potential sources of food for honey bees in OTM such as bungur, petai, waru, pulai, banana, teak, sengon, durian, rubber tree, sonokeling, jengkol, suren, and mango only flower in certain months. However, there are several food sources available throughout the month, namely laban, coconut, petai cina, and cacao. Based on the results of this study, it can be seen that OTM has sufficient potential as a source of feed so it has the potential to be developed as a location for honey bee cultivation.
