This research aimed to determine flowering and the diversity of pollinators linked with three breeding substrates in a monoculture system of fine flavor cacao. For the purpose, nine plots of nine trees each were selected, the trial consisted of three treatments corresponding to breeding substrates (plantain pseudostem, cacao pod shells, and cacao leaf litter). Three branches from the central tree within each plot were selected, the total number of flowers, pollinated flowers, and fertilized flowers (fruit set) were counted. In addition; several species of pollinator insects (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) were trapped using “pyramid” type traps, they were collected from the three breeding substrates under study. A randomized complete block desig...
