\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the occasion of the course on\u00a0Syntropic Agriculture<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0done in July of 2019 in F2, a module of agroforestry was put in place in one of the areas of the\u00a0Light-Community of Figueira<\/a>,<\/strong> with a priority placed on melliferous plants, which are what attract and feed bees.<\/p>\n

We know that in Brazil there are approximately 5,000 species of bees, among which we have approximately 330 species without stingers, and of these, close to 70 can and should be bred, with the advantage of making it possible for the human being to have a direct contact with them, without the need of using special clothing or equipment.<\/p>\n

\"Vida<\/a><\/p>\n

Taking this into consideration, at this moment, a Meliponiculture project is being implemented, which is the development of a space for giving a home to some of these species of stingless bees, called Meliponaries. They contribute great environmental benefits, since they are species that pollinate the native flora, the crops and orchards, which besides contributing to the production of food, also guarantees the maintenance of plant biodiversity.<\/p>\n

The risk of Extinction<\/h3>\n

\"Vida<\/a><\/p>\n

It has been evident that in the whole world there is an increasingly frequent occurrence of the massive death and disappearance of bees, and although their importance as producers of honey, and providers of pollen, propolis, royal jelly, and wax is undeniable, their greatest contribution is in the service they render all living beings on the planet, which is pollination.<\/p>\n

Through this sublime process of transportation, which they perform so naturally and masterfully, they become essential in maintaining the balance of a large part of ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Pollination is a mechanism used by nature for bringing continuity to life. The disappearance of the bees puts at risk the existence of not only human beings, but all living beings.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
