Abstract

Land snails are part of Indonesia's rich biodiversity. Their mucus is widely used as a natural ingredient in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Despite this, research has primarily focused on a limited range of species, leaving the potential of many native land snail species unexplored. This indicates that there is still significant untapped potential in native Indonesian land snail species. This research aims to analyze the bioactive compounds in the mucus of native Indonesian land snails and compare them with those of invasive species. The research employed Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) to identify biologically active substances in land snail mucus. The samples used were Amphidromus palaceus and Lissachatina fulica collected from Gunungkelir, Yogyakarta, and Amphidromus perversus from Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta, and Jember, East Java. The results revealed that A. palaceus exhibited the highest number of bioactive compounds, with 28 identified substances. The bioactive properties across all samples were categorized as antibacterial (16%), wound healing and anti-inflammatory (12%), anticancer (8%), neuron-related drugs (6%), anti-aging (4%), with the remaining activities related to liver-related drugs, antiviral, heart disease-related drugs, and kidney disease-related drugs. These results highlight that native species have significant potential for further research, enabling their application in medicine and cosmetics.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify and analyze ethnobotanical data on phytonym, utilization, and cultural value of plants mentioned in an Old Sundanese text. Since plants are mentioned with their vernacular names, identification was based on an exhaustive bibliographical search of the respective scientific name. A comprehensive investigation led to the identification of a total of 85 Old Sundanese phytonyms, which represented vernacular names for 79 distinct plant species. Furthermore, by considering the number of identified species from the plant-related glosses, 93 species belonging to 57 genera and 44 plant families were registered. Among these plant families, Arecaceae (12 species), Poaceae (nine species), and Fabaceae (six species) exhibited the highest number of identified species. In addition to the phytonyms, 36 phytotoponyms, which utilize vernacular phytonyms to designate settlements, hermitages, ports, mountains, and rivers were identified. It was worth noting that the majority of the plants associated with these phytotoponyms were indigenous. Meanwhile, only 13 species were traced back to the pre-Columbian exchange period during the Austronesian migration and the Indianization-Sinicization era in IndoMalayan history. The result showed that the predominantly mentioned utilization included beverage production, textile manufacturing, vessel craftsmanship, betel quid preparation, perfume creation, and incense production. Among the identified species, Areca catechu emerges as the most frequently mentioned in the text, along with Graptophyllum pictum and Cordyline fruticosa, which were also considered as possessing profound spiritual value due to association with heavenly realms. Furthermore, the text highlighted that the production of plant-based fragrance products, also referenced in the celestial domain, held significant prominence in global trade during the 15th century

Abstract

Petani dalam pengolahan mina padi berlandaskan pada Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) secara lekat budaya. Pengelolaan sistem mina padi dengan menggunakan pengetahuan ekologi tradisional tersebut, perlahan-lahan mengalami perubahan seiring dengan diintroduksikannya program revolusi hijau. Program revolusi hijau tersebut telah mempengaruhi praktik sistem mina padi di Desa Lampegan. Pengelolaan sistem mina padi mengalami pergeseran dari ras ikan yang dibudidayakan, ketersediaan air dan waktu pemeliharaan ikan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengkaji perubahan produksi sistem mina padi sebelum dan sesudah program revolusi hijau, perbandingan produksi pengelolaan ikan di sawah dengan ikan di kolam, perbandingan produksi sistem mina padi dan sistem non-mina padi serta pengelolaan ikan berdasarkan jenis ikan yang dibudidayakan . Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode campuran yaitu kombinasi metode kualitatif dan metode kuantitatif dengan pendekatan etnoekologi meliputi pengelolaan mina padi sebelum dan sesudah revolusi hijau. Pengumpulan data lapangan dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara semi-struktur dan wawancara berstruktur terhadap 50 responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sistem mina padi di Desa Lampegan Kabupaten Bandung mengalami perubahan pada pengelolaan mina padi sebelum dan sesudah revolusi hijau dalam besar input pada produksi pengelolaan mina padi. Pengelolaan setelah revolusi hijau (2018-2023) menggunakan input luar (pabrik) secara keseluruhan yang menambah biaya produksi lebih tinggi dibandingkan pada produksi sebelum revolusi hijau (1960-1970) yang masih memanfaatkan ketersediaan input dari alam dan lingkungan. Pengelolaan mina padi juga diketahui memiliki keuntungan yang lebih banyak dibandingkan pengelolaan non-mina padi, pengelolaan ikan di sawah lebih menguntungkan dari segi pemeliharaan dan hasil yang didapatkan, serta keuntungan dari setiap jenis ikan yang ditanam memiliki keuntungan yang berbeda sesuai dengan kebutuhan konsumen (untuk dikonsumsi atau tidak dikonsumsi), ikan untuk dikonsumsi memiliki keuntungan yang lebih besar karena penjualan yang lebih tinggi.

Abstract

For generations, the inhabitants of rural people of Pasir Putih Village, Rancakalong Subdistrict, Sumedang Regency, West Java, have relied on medicinal plant to maintain the health of their livestock and treat various illness that may distress their livestock. Nowadays, however, the knowledge and practice of livestock treatment using various medicinal plants in rural areas of Pasir Putih Village has tended to eroded, due to the influence of commercial livestock businesses development. Consequently, to treat various livestock, farmers have to buy various modern medicines from the city and the prices are expensive. In addition, the Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), particularly in the young generations has eroded. The aim of this study is to explore and to document the information regarding various ruminant livestock ailments, diversity of plant species used as ethnoveterinary medicine, plant part used and application method applied in treating ruminant ailments, and source of ethnoveterinary medicinal plants in the rural ecosystems of the study area. Method used in this study was mixed-method qualitative and quantitative with an ethnoveterinary medicinal approach. The study resulted showed that during the study recorded 14 common ailments of the ruminants, at least a total of 46 plant species in 41 genera and 17 families were used traditionally and their combination for the treatment of 14 diseases in the study area. Zingiberaceae found to be a dominated family with seven plant species followed by Asteraceae (5 species), Alliacea (5 species), and Fabaceae (5 species). The most commonly used plant parts were leaf (15 species), fruit (11 species), and rhizome (7 species). The wide application of medical plants as the form of drunk (66.67 %), followed by eaten (7.14 %), smeared (7.14 %), and put on (7.14 %). Based on the were the most important medicinal plants used to treat various ruminant ailments Fidelity Level (FL), it was recoded five medical plants, viz., Allium sativum (34.09), Kaempferia galanga (34.09), Zingiber officinale (34.09), Curcuma longa (34.09), and Aloe vera (34.09), in the study area. Regarding source of 46 plant species of ethnoveterinary medical plants was harvested from the homegarden 23 species (50.00 %), garden 11 species (23.91 %), and 12 species (26.05 %) acquired from both homegarden and garden. Thus, the agroecosystem of homegarden and garden are important role not only for the human food production but also livestock feed in the rural ecosystem.
