Apicultural vulnerability and resilience to climate change
Keywords:
Vulnerability, Resilience, Apiculture, Climate change, Territorial developmentAbstract
This essay examines the vulnerability of beekeeping to climate change in arid regions, emphasizing the negative impact on biodiversity and rural economies caused by disruptions in climatic patterns and the availability of nectar and pollen resources. Using the theoretical framework of vulnerability and resilience, it identifies challenges such as pests, diseases, and altered flowering cycles, while proposing solutions like crop diversification, genetic improvement of queen bees, and supplemental feeding. These adaptive strategies, combined with training and community networks, enhance apicultural resilience, ensuring the sustainability of production systems and territorial development in the face of climate change
