Resumo: Water is used by bees for their metabolism and other functions in the colony. In the absence of water sources, it is essential to provide bees with a water station. In this paper we present the construction of a waterer and the preliminary results of the evaluation of the visitation for water collection in a waterer installed in an apiary and another one in an orchard cultivated under anti-hail screens. The number of bees arriving at the waterer per minute and their visitation time was evaluated. The bees visited the waterer constantly, in both environments, even in weather conditions considered inappropriate for flight and foraging, which shows the need for water for the colony. The installation of water stations in the orchards may be an option to improve the permanence of the bees under the anti-hail screens and to preventing that when they leave in search of water they cannot return.

Na ausência de fontes de água é fundamental a disponibilização de um bebedouro às abelhas. Neste trabalho apresentamos a confecção de um bebedouro e os resultados preliminares de avaliação da visitação para a coleta de água em um bebedouro instalado em um apiário e outro em um pomar cultivado sob telas antigranizo. Avaliaram-se o número de abelhas que chegavam ao bebedouro por minuto e o seu tempo de visitação. As abelhas visitaram os bebedouros de forma constante nos dois ambientes, inclusive em condições climáticas consideradas impróprias para voo e forrageamento, o que demonstra a necessidade de água para a colônia. A instalação do bebedouro nos pomares pode ser uma opção para melhorar a permanência das abelhas sob a tela antigranizo, bem como evitar que elas não consigam regressar ao saírem em busca de água.Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina - Epagri2022-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/133610.52945/rac.v35i2.1336Agropecuária Catarinense Journal; Vol. 35 No. 2 (2022); 21-23Agropecuária Catarinense; v. 35 n. 2 (2022); 21-232525-60760103-0779reponame:Agropecuária Catarinense (Online)instname:Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)instacron:EPAGRIporhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/1336/1380Copyright (c) 2022 Tânia Patrícia Schafaschek, André Amarildo Sezerino https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSchafaschek, Tânia PatríciaSezerino, André Amarildo 2022-09-01T02:31:27Zoai:ojs.publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br:article/1336Revistahttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/RAC/indexPUBhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/index.php/RAC/oaieditoriarac@epagri.sc.gov.br || lamperuch@epagri.sc.gov.br2525-60760103-0779opendoar:2022-09-01T02:31:27Agropecuária Catarinense (Online) - Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)false
