Abstract

Bengkulu is one of the provinces located on the island of Sumatra, boasting a significant agricultural sector. One of the leading agrarian commodities in Bengkulu Province is oil palm. Oil palm in Bengkulu is planted in coastal areas. One of the key factors supporting oil palm fruit production is a healthy soil arthropod ecosystem. Soil arthropods play an essential role in the oil palm plantation ecosystem. As organisms that live in the soil, these animals help maintain soil and plant health, improving soil structure and nutrient availability for oil palm plants. This study aims to obtain initial data on the diversity of soil arthropods and their roles in smallholder oil palm plantations on the coast of Bengkulu. This study began with sampling oil palm plantations around the coast of Bengkulu. The areas that will be used as study locations include Sungai Suci, Danau Gedang, and Pekik Nyaring. Arthropod sampling was carried out by installing pitfall traps in both areas, which were determined diagonally in a ​​200 m² area, with 20 pitfall trap units per location. Arthropod species were identified based on morphology, and the type and number of populations were recorded. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index, dominance index, and evenness index measure analysis of biodiversity data. The results of the study showed that in the majority, the diversity of soil arthropods in the three sampling areas was moderate, the dominance of arthropod types was low to moderate, and evenness was moderate to high.

Abstract

Food security is one of the maqashid of sharia (sharia goals), namely protecting the soul (hifz al-nafs). Food security is important in maintaining the life and sustainability of humanity. Because affordability is a component of food security, there is a close relationship between food security and poverty. Bengkulu Province is the second largest province with a percentage of people living in poverty on the island of Sumatra. However, the percentage of people in Bengkulu Province who live in poverty tends to be unaffected by the pandemic and is even showing signs of decreasing. The results of other studies on the impact of the pandemic on poverty, income and food security contradict this. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research regarding changes in food security after the pandemic in cities and districts in Bengkulu Province. The results of this descriptive analysis show that almost all city and district food security indices have not experienced significant changes after the Covid-19 pandemic in Bengkulu Province. Only Mukomuko Regency and Bengkulu City experienced significant changes, namely changing from the "Resistant" category to "Very Resistant". The results of a deeper analysis based on the three aspects show that there are no significant changes in the three aspects from 2020-2023. Only Mukomuko Regency and Bengkulu City experienced a significant increase in the food utilization index from 2020-2023. This is in line with the descriptive analysis of the food security index where the increase in the food security index for Mukomuko Regency and Bengkulu City was caused by an increase in the food utilization index.

Abstract

This study was conducted in the Singaran Pati Sub-district of Bengkulu City to analyze food expenditure shares, energy consumption, and household food security levels among rice-farming households. A descriptive-analytical method was employed, with research sites selected purposively and samples determined proportionally, resulting in 63 respondents from Dusun Besar and 34 from Panorama. Both primary and secondary data were utilized. Food expenditure share was calculated based on the ratio of food to total household expenditure, while energy consumption was assessed using a one-sample t-test. Food security status was measured by cross-classifying food expenditure share and energy consumption. The results show that the food expenditure share reached 80.98%, indicating a high category, while energy consumption was 97.38%, categorized as sufficient. Overall, most rice-farming households were classified as food-insecure.
