摘要:The research aimed to evaluate the use of Octopus sp. waste as artificial bee feed and evaluate pollen collected by worker bees (Apis mellifera). This research using 4 treatments (P0: cornflour pollen 100% + Octopus sp. waste flour 0%; P1: cornflour pollen 87,5% + Octopus sp. waste flour 12,5%; P2: cornflour pollen 75% + Octopus sp. waste flour 25%; P3: cornflour pollen 65,5% + Octopus sp. waste flour 37,5%). This research used honey bees (Apis mellifera) 20 boxes with 4 of the frames. The variable observed were worker bees' body weight, worker bees' body length, and worker bees' wing length. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance, continued by polynomial orthogonal test. The results showed that the worker bees' body weight, worker bees' body length, and worker bees' wing length were significantly different (P<0,05) between the group. Characteristics of worker bees (Apis mellifera) day old in treatment P1 gave an average body weight of 94.4 mg, an average body length of 12.7 mm, and an average wing length of 9.7 mm. The provision of 87.5% corn pollen flour + 12.5% octopus waste flour in treatment P1 gave the best results among other treatments. The pollen collected by worker bees (Apis mellifera) consisted of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis L., Adiantum trapeziforme, and Tagetes erecta L.
