Good afternoon guys!!!
As you know that Indonesia itself has a tropical temperature that is dreamed of by all creatures belonging to the flora and fauna, so that many of their species are found in Indonesia's forests.
Likewise with every insect belonging to the order of bees including wallace. Wallace is a type of bee order that is always found in our daily lives.
One of the bees that I uploaded in this post, these bees stand in the windshield of a very quiet perch without any fear of the slightest human movement, I also do not understand why this species is very calm stature usually they will avoid the movement of the human body. Maybe this bee is sick.
In this era, Indonesian people are being fiercely cultivating bees because of their entrepreneurship in the field, the results are very promising for the pengola.
This happens because of the large market demand for honey sourced from the bees themselves, the pharmacy manager in our city always orders honey from beekeepers, so automatically bee farmers are very enthusiastic in raising bees.
The beekeepers themselves choose species usually with categories such as forest bees and honey bees, between them there are also differences between honey bees and forest bees and their honey taste is also different.
Beekeepers can also use expired beehives to make food. And other benefits of beekeeping can also accelerate the growth of ornamental flowers cultivated by beekeepers themselves.
In the sense that the beekeeper in cultivating bees also provides food that is close to the location of cultivation by planting ornamental flowers as food for bees themselves, so that the bees do not need to look far for food in their livestock.
From the beekeepers' information they say that there are several types of bees that are often cultivated by local breeders. As :
1. Black dwarf bee
Black bees are also said to be kerdi bees or black bees with black stripes, the habit is to make a nest on a wooden branch attached to a large tree trunk, so they are more flexible in their activities because it is far from the reach of other predators such as sun bears, or animals that destroy wasps.

2. Sulawesi local bee
Then the beekeepers also breed Sulawesi local bees which are often encountered in the countryside or very often encountered in humid small forests. This bee has a slim and long body posture as you can see in this post, this bee often mingles with other types of bees.
The population is still said to be a lot, and it is very easy to meet in the Sulawesi region, often located and not far to find food, in general they often play on plants such as guava trees and plants that take their fruit.
In addition to the bees mentioned above there are also other bees that are cultivated by honey farmers, but very few. Whereas wild bees that live and breed naturally will also be taken separately by honey beekeepers of course in their own way.
Thus his review of livestock bees and wild bees that are used by honey beekeepers. May be useful. Thank you very much.
