Abstract
Domestication and propagation in stingless bees is called meliponiculture. The aims of meliponiculture are to make it easier to control the colonies health and development and to make it easy when harvesting stingless bee products (honey, bee bread, and propolis), furthermore, for advanced study and development like multiple colonies, to produce honey, bee bread, and propolis. Therefore, this paper focuswa on stingless bees Tetragonula laeviceps: the domestication and propagation technique, production of stingless bee products (honey, bee bread, and propolis), the daily activity of workers (foragers), the chemical composition (glucose, fructose, sucrose, reducing sugar, moisture, protein, ash, phenolic, flavonoid, vitamin C, antioxidant activity, minerals content, and amino acids) of honey from T. laeviceps, the pests and the challenges in meliponiculture of stingless bees.
