Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Zootecnia) - Unidade Acadêmica Especializada em Ciências Agrárias, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Macaíba, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/56795Course completion work referring to the mandatory curricular internship of the Animal Husbandry course at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, carried out at Sítio Mangabeiras with the aim of applying knowledge and exchanging experiences in various areas that cover the profession of animal husbandry, mainly in meliponiculture. The internship was carried out from April 13, 2022 to June 26, 2022, totaling 270 hours, under the guidance of Prof. Ms Gunthinéia Alves de Lira. During this period, several activities were carried out, such as chainsaw operator pruning the meliponicultural pasture, carpentry practice in making rational boxes for native bees, training with software to create the 3D project for the construction of the meliponary, georeferencing the location for implementing the meliponário, aiming to learn the processes of choosing the construction site and using applications to check solar orientation, which consists of designing the building according to the sun's trajectory throughout the day and year, east/west. The internship is the opportunity to learn about professional performance in a practical way, leading to learning in a more effective way and experienced in a real production scenario. Aiming at an opportunity for the producer to build his own meliponary, some meliponaries were suggested, using existing materials on the property, as well as suggesting an alternative for building a functional, lower-cost meliponarium, describing step by step using materials, however, of the highest quality.Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/3.0/br/Meliponicultura, Meliponícola, Meliponário.
