Resumen

KHABBACH, ABDELMAJID; LIBIAD, MOHAMED  y  ENNABILI, ABDESLAM. MELLIFEROUS FLORA AND APICULTURE IN THE PRE-RIF OF THE PROVINCE OF TAZA (NORTH OF MOROCCO). Luna Azul [online]. 2013, n.36, pp.78-90. ISSN 1909-2474.

To quantify the plant diversity values in the Pre-Rif of the province of Taza (North of Morocco), as an environmental economic approach, investigations and field surveys have highlighted values of the local melliferous flora for apiculture. Honey flora, whose population pulls profit, consists mainly of 28 species and interests also itinerant beekeepers. We estimated an average of 12.1±10.8 beekeepers by rural settlement or "douar", of which 66.3% are itinerant and 33.7% are sedentary, and an average of 36.3±30.4 hives by apiarist. Moreover, several types of honeys are produced locally and consumed extensively as a health food. The hive yield in honey is depending on the foraged species: low for Origanum spp., Thymus spp. and Arbutus unedo, and high for Anthyllis cytisoides, Rosmarinus officinalis, Ceratonia siliqua and Ziziphus lotus. The direct benefits of honey flora are assessed to 14,859 MAD.beekeeper-1.year-1.
