Stingless native beekeeping advantages will be disseminated by this project, discouraging predatory use of nests, and exposing the profitability of the activity. An environmental education program connecting the environment to the availability of resources for use by humans will encourage formation of a native beekeeper cooperative. Knowledge about the plants used by bees will also be improved, and studies will be carried out about reproductive strategies. Scientific publications are planned. Bee houses will be built for these purposes, where canudo and jandaíra species will be bred in three areas with different levels of conservation. The local small farmers will be invited to participate in all stages, invited by a local leadership. The colonies will be transferred to boxes. At the time of harvest, a technical assistant will train the community, instructing them as to how it must be done. Trees used by the species will be planted in degraded areas. The experience will be disseminated in neighboring communities during scheduled meetings. This project will take place in Jardim do Seridó, state of Rio Grande do Norte.
