Abstract

The study investigated comparative and competitive food crop commodities in each district of Merauke Regency, South Papua Province, Indonesia, to support strategic agricultural development in the region. The research conducted from June to September 2024 uses a quantitative descriptive approach. Primary data comes from primary informants, such as the Head of the Food Crops, Horticulture, and Plantation Service, and secondary data from statistical reports and scientific literature. Using a Location Quotient (LQ) analysis, the study identified root crops (cassava, sweet potato, taro, and gembili) as the most dominant commodity found in almost all districts, while legumes (peanuts, mung beans, and soybeans) were concentrated in eight districts. Rice production is prominent in four districts (Kurik, Malind, Semangga, and Tanah Miring), while maize cultivation covers nine districts, including Kimaam, Okaba, Animha, and others. These findings underscore the potential for commodity-based agriculture development in Merauke Regency, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to optimize production, strengthen market access, develop farmer institutions, and improve supporting infrastructure. This research provides important insights for policymakers and stakeholders to advance the agricultural sector in the region, especially in the development of food crops.

Abstract

Rawa Padi has various types of organism, one of which is the Velesunio sp. (Lea, 1859). As freshwater mussels (Velesunio sp.) are used as a source of food needs by the surrounding community. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the density of Velesunio sp. and the water quality in the Rawa Padi waters. Moreover, water quality can be expressed by water quality parameters including physical and chemical parameters. This study was conducted from July to August in 2023. A survey method with a purposive sampling approach were used in this study. Quadrants measuring 1 x 1 m were spread 30 times at each research station during sampling activities. Furthermore, from total duration of sampling, there were a total of 90 quadrants in all research locations. The results showed that the highest density was at station I in July with a density of 7.40 ind/m²; while, the lowest density was at station I in August with density of 1.50 ind/m². On the other hand, water quality namely pH range about 7.93-8.71, temperature between 270C until 32°C, brightness within 4-96 cm, and depth approximately 0.55-0.79 m. Thus, based on regression analysis, it is known that the water quality parameters that have closest relationship to the density of Velesunio sp. in Rawa Padi waters is brightness. The regression value was R = 0.9077 or 90.77% at Station I, R = 0.9962 or 99.62% at Station II, and R = 0.9941 or 99.41% at Station III.

Abstract. Merly SL, Pangaribuan RD, Kando YE, Pane LR, Tuhumena JR. 2024. Species diversity of aquatic plants in Anggerper Swamp in Merauke District, South Papua Province, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 25: 4712-4721. The aquatic plants in Anggerper Swamp, Merauke District, South Papua Province, Indonesia have never been studied, causing the development of their potential is still insufficient. This research aimed to identify species diversity of aquatic plants, through a species identification approach, Shannon-Weaver Species Diversity Index (H’), Evenness Index (E), Dominance Index (D), and Important Value Index (IVI). Two methods used in this study are cruising survey and purposive sampling method using transect quadrant. There are two research stations with 120 quadrants measuring 1 x 1m. This study successfully identified 14 aquatic plant species from 9 families. Moreover, the majority of these aquatic plants are known as emergent and introduced plants. In Station I, total individuals reached 6,531 with 10 species and in Station II reached 2,576 individuals with 12 species. The diversity index for both stations tends to moderate, 1.92 in Station I and 2.53 in Station II, successively. The evenness index is stable with high uniformity, where Station I is 0.83 and Station II is 0.95, respectively. The dominance index for both stations indicates low dominance (0.21 in Station I and 0.10 in Station II). The highest aquatic plants’ IVI belongs to Nymphaea nouchali (65.66%) and Urochloa mutica (63.16%).

Abstract

The abundant potential resources in coastal and marine areas have the potential to be overutilized, which can lead to resource degradation. There are various management aimed at ecosystem sustainability, one of which is community-based ecosystem management. The purpose of this research is to provide information related to the role of community-based management that has been carried out. The method used in this research is the literature review method which is primary and secondary data that has been obtained from searching scientific articles and then compiled, analyzed and conclusions will be drawn. Community Based Management as a process of giving authority, responsibility, and opportunities to the community to manage its own resources preceded by determining needs and goals and aspirations. Various challenges are often experienced in management between the government, the community and also investors related to the use of space. Improving human resources in the form of education, training, access to technology and information, and institutional strengthening are needed to ensure that communities have the ability to manage their territory, while the government plays a role in maintaining, supporting and preserving existing culture or customs. The conclusion of this research is that the naming of each region is different but has the same goal, namely to maintain the sustainability of resources, so it is necessary to involve various parties in maintaining and documenting community-based resource management in each region.
