Importance of reforestation with wood-honey species
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the last decades, high habitat losses have been reported worldwide. Numerous researchers agree that this loss has contributed in the long term to the decrease in bee populations. apis mellifera bees are the most valuable pollinator of monocultures in the world. For this reason, this research aims to reflect the importance of reforestation with wood-melliferous and non-wood-melliferous species. In also, special emphasis is placed on the relevant role of pollinators and the countless benefits obtained from forests. Additionally, honey is highlighted as one of the main non-timber forest products (NWFP) and the flowering season variables are analyzed. As a suggestion of species for reforestation, species such as Palo de Campeche (Haematoxylum campechianum L.), Guamo (Inga codonantha), Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus sp), Pataban (Laguncuria racemosa), Mangrove Prieto (Avicennia germinans)
