Abstract

The Sumatran rhino (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis) is one of the most critically endangered large mammals, with fewer than 100 individuals remaining. Habitat quality plays a vital role in ensuring its survival and reproduction. The Kapi area within the Leuser Ecosystem Area (LEA) is considered one of the potential remaining habitats for this species, yet data on its vegetation structure is limited. This study aimed to analyze and describe vegetation conditions in Kapi by examining species composition, similarity, diversity, evenness, and importance value index (IVI). Vegetation data were collected from October to December 2021 using randomly distributed sample plots across all vegetation strata. A total of 98 plant species from 37 families and 7,394 individual plants were recorded, comprising 67 species in the tree stratum, 43 species in the pole stratum, 42 species in the sapling stratum, and 43 species in the seedling stratum. Species similarity was highest between sapling and pole strata (63.53%) and lowest between sapling and tree strata (45.87%). Seventy-nine plant species from 29 families were identified as rhino food plants. Diversity was highest in the tree stratum (H’=3.32) and lowest in the seedling stratum (H’=2.88). Evenness peaked in the pole stratum (E=0.83) and was lowest in the seedling stratum (E=0.76). IVI analysis indicated different dominant species in each stratum.

Abstract

Gampong Paroy, Kecamatan Lhoong, Kabupaten Aceh Besar memiliki potensi ekowisata yang besar untuk dikembangkan karena letaknya strategis di antara hutan, pegunungan dan pesisir pantai, serta kekayaan sda dan budaya lokal. Namun berbagai potensi tersebut belum terkelola dan termanfaatkan secara optimal akibat ketiadaan kelembagaan, rendahnya kapasitas masyarakat, serta minimnya akses terhadap teknologi digital. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan membentuk dan memperkuat kelompok pengelola ekowisata sebagai wadah legal, meningkatkan kapasitas masyarakat, serta mengintegrasikan potensi lokal dalam strategi pengembangan ekowisata berkelanjutan. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi sosialisasi, pelatihan peningkatan kapasitas, penerapan teknologi digital, pendampingan, serta strategi keberlanjutan. Hasil kegiatan terbentuknya kelompok pengelola ekowisata dalam bentuk Pokdarwis, terlaksananya pelatihan manajerial, hospitality, konservasi, dan pemasaran digital, serta tersedianya media promosi berupa papan informasi, website, dan media sosial. Harapannya, program ini bisa memperkuat kemandirian masyarakat dalam mengelola ekowisata berbasis potensi lokal dan memberi dasar bagi pengembangan ekonomi kreatif desa secara berkelanjutan.
