Abstract: Panganiban, Mena Lyn Gatpandan. April 1998. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, Insect Pollination of Coffee. Thesis Adviser. Evelyn O. Singson. The experiment was conducted at the coffee plantation of the Cavite State University (Cvsu) and Harasan, Indang, Cavite from February 1997 to January 1998- The study aimed to determine the impact of insect pollinators on oof fee bean production. The most, abundant insect pollinator of coffee in Cvsu was Trigona sp. while Apis cerana was the most abundant in Harasan Different honeybee densities (five ten and 25) were used to pollinate coffee flowers- Highest percentage of fruit set was obtained from 25 honeybees. The fruit and seed sets of coffee were compared in open close (no pollination), and honeybee pollinated plants. Results showed that presence coffee pollinators increased the yield of coffee berries However, higher percentage fruit set was observed in open pollination This was made possible by the presence of native pollinators such as A.cerana and Trigona which are the natural pollinators in the Tropical region.
