This study aims to determine the effect of soybean fermented and pollen paste on the growth of honey bees including larvae length increase, pupae length increase and pupae abdominal diameter increase. The research material is honey bee apis mellifera from farms in Cendoro village, Dawar Blandong sub-district, Mojokerto regency, as many as 96 of honey bees in the form of larvae aged 2 days and 5 day old and pupae 4 day and 11 day old. The research method was experiment / trial with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of six treatments and four groups. The data were analyzed by analysis of variation (ANOVA) and continued with Duncan Multiple Range Test if there were differences. The results showed that the influence of each treatment on the length of the larvae and pupae was significantly different (P <0.01), while the pupae width variable was not significantly different (P> 0.05). The best treatments that affect the length of the larvae are P0, P1, P4, P5 but the effect is not different from P2. While the best treatment that affect the length of pupae is P3. It was suggested to conduct a similar study but use different types of beans to determine the effect on the worker bee brood.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
