Abstract

Evaluating land suitability for Aleurites moluccana in community agroforestry land within Langkat District, North Sumatra, is crucial for promoting sustainable development, enhancing livelihoods, and preserving ecosystems while honoring local traditions and cultures. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate and map the land suitability for A. moluccana within Langkat District, located in North Sumatra, Indonesia. To gather the necessary data, this study employed a survey method, involving the collection of soil samples from ten distinct land units within the field. The assessment of land suitability was carried out using the matching method. Geographic Information System (GIS) technology was utilized to create maps illustrating the distribution of land suitability, while a Global Positioning System (GPS) was employed to accurately record the coordinates of the collected soil samples. The findings revealed that within Gunung Ambat, Simpang Kuta Buluh, Rumah Galuh, and Telagah Village, the actual land suitability classes for A. moluccana were classified as moderately suitable (S2) and marginally suitable (S3). The prevailing limiting factors in this region were temperature (tc) and the characteristics of the root zone medium (rc). Consequently, this influenced the potential land suitability classes for A. moluccana, resulting in classifications ranging from highly suitable (S1) to moderately suitable (S2) and marginally suitable (S3). By implementing land suitability evaluation for A. moluccana in community agroforestry land, promoting sustainable land use, enhancing livelihoods, and conserving natural resources.

Abstract

Corruption and forest disturbances represent substantial barriers to sustainabledevelopment in Malaysia's forestry sector. Working within this sector faces avariety of threats. This study explores key corruption risks within the forestrysector, analysing the motives and opportunities that drive forest offences inPeninsular Malaysia. Respondents from relevant agencies were primarilysurveyed using questionnaires. Data analysis using SPSS revealed the corruptionrisks encountered within the forestry sector. Respondents identified fieldwork andreporting as potential areas susceptible to corruption, with their perceptionsanalyzed through central tendency and dispersion measures. Additionally,correlation analysis was conducted to determine the strength and direction of therelationship between motive and opportunity regarding forest offences, and toassess whether the correlation was statistically significant. The findingsdemonstrated a robust positive correlation (r = 0.66) between motive andopportunity, indicating a significant relationship. This suggests that motives forforest offences correspond to opportunities for such offences. This studyhighlights the need for targeted collaboration between the Forestry Departmentand relevant authorities to develop specialized training programs. These programsare crucial for effectively investigating and prosecuting forest violations,ultimately reducing corruption risks

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems are important in ecological, economic, and social aspects,especially for coastal communities. However, damage to mangrove ecosystemsdue to land-use changes for purposes such as settlements and fish ponds canthreaten their sustainability. This study aims to analyze the potential of themangrove ecosystem, apply the kao-kao model in silvofishery pond management,and analyze the potential of mangroves in increasing the income of the communityin Pematang Kuala Village, Teluk Mengkudu Sub-district, Serdang BedagaiDistrict, North Sumatra Province. The methods used include field surveys forvegetation analysis and interviews with Kelompok Usaha Bersama (KUB)Nelayan Sepakat members. Vegetation analysis was conducted in three zones:utilization zone I, II, and the protection zone. Each zone consisted of 5 plots,totaling 15 plots. Interviews were conducted with 27 respondents. The studyresults showed that the mangrove ecosystem in Pematang Kuala Village isdominated by Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mangle, with an important valueindex of 300 in both utilization and protection zones. In the protection zone, theShannon-Wiener diversity index was 0.95, indicating a low level of diversity.Based on the kao-kao system model, it was observed that the productivity of fishponds and fishermen's catch increased. Community income has significantlyincreased over the last five years, with an average net income of IDR 19,550,000every six months. The presence of mangroves also provides indirect benefits as acoastal protector from abrasion, with an estimated economic value of IDR247,950,000 per year.

Abstract

Forest roads are essential in forested regions, supporting forestry operations, timber extraction, afforestation, log transportation to mills, recreation, and wildlife management. Nonetheless, forest roads are a major source of soil erosion and sedimentation in stream waters. They contribute to sedimentation through soil erosion on elements like the running surface, roadside slopes, and side ditches. On these routes, soil erosion primarily occurs due to rainfall-driven runoff and its duration. This study employs a systematic review, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), to compile data and examine findings on forest road erosion. The review aligns with the objectives of identifying factors that influence soil erosion on forest roads and skid trails, and developing techniques to control erosion, minimise its impact, and prevent its occurrence. Methods such as planting vegetation on roadside slopes have demonstrated effectiveness in mitigating erosion and reducing its severity and extent. It is advisable for future research to explore various soil erosion control techniques to deepen understanding and improve measures to reduce soil erosion on forest roads
