Technical report: mathematical models of stingless bee populations / Nornabila Roszuan and Siti Nor Raihan Azahari

The purpose of this research is to design a model that is used for calculating the population of stingless bees. This research also purposed to help bee farmers in order to estimate the population of stingless bees. The devise was tested upon stingless bees habitat and being compared with the sting bees habitat using the mathematical model. The parameter used for this research are the maximum laying rate of the queen (L), reaction of brood mortality (w), the most extreme rate in which hive bees will ended up foragers (α), social inhibition (σ), and the worker are requited to the forager class from the hive bees class (m). The comparison between the amount of population between sting bees and stingless bees habitat was investigated in this study.
