Abstract

General Background: Forest and land rehabilitation (RHL) is essential for addressing critical land conditions, aiming to transform unproductive lands into areas that can enhance community living standards through increased productivity. Specific Background: In Neniari Village, the RHL program has been implemented with mixed success, utilizing agroforestry systems and involving various species, including both timber and non-timber plants. Knowledge Gap: Existing studies often lack detailed analysis of the factors influencing RHL success at a community and ecological level. Aims: This study seeks to evaluate the overall success of the RHL program in Neniari Village by considering plant survival rates, environmental factors, and community participation. Results: The survival rate of plants averaged 70%, indicating a moderate level of rehabilitation success, which did not meet the targeted benchmarks. Novelty: This research uniquely combines biotic and abiotic factor analyses with community engagement levels to assess RHL outcomes. Implications: The findings highlight the need for enhanced community involvement and improved environmental condition management to boost RHL success rates, suggesting adjustments to future rehabilitation strategies. Highlights: Community Involvement: Higher levels of community participation are directly linked to the success of rehabilitation efforts, indicating the need for more focused engagement strategies. Plant Survival: An average survival rate of 70% among various plant species underlines the challenges of RHL in achieving its goals, pointing towards the necessity for improved environmental management. Agroforestry Benefits: Utilizing agroforestry systems has shown potential benefits in enhancing ecological diversity and economic returns, suggesting its suitability for RHL practices.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the diversity of insects in the protected forest area of Kota Nona Ambon, as well as the diversity, abundance, and distribution of insects in the area, in order to detect the quality of forest health early. In general, this study employed a sample extraction method. An observation path was created using an inventory method to collect insect data, with a width of 20 meters and a span of 100 meters, and a distance of 10 meters between paths. Data collection on attacks was then carried out. Insects were collected directly, and pitfall traps were set at a distance of 10 meters. Another type of trap was then installed at the next 10 meters along the path. Plots measuring 20 m x 20 m were created on each insect observation path. There are 13 types of insects found in the Gunung Nona forest area, with a total of 185 individuals in 8 orders, namely Diptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Aranae, Odonata, Spiroboliida, Hymenoptera, which are spread across 10 families, namely: Callipholidae, Nymphlidae, Pieridae, Muscidae, Culicidae, Araneidae, Alydidae, Libellulidae, Scarabaeidae, Erebidae, Fomicidae.

Abstract

Teak is the forest species with the highest economic value in Indonesia. It is especially important to many villages in Maluku Province.In order to manage for maximum profitability we need to first understand the pest species attacking this valuable tree species and to determine how much damage is caused. species were identified, and the intensity of pest attack determined.We identified two species acting as major pests;the lady bug , (Coccinella magnifica) and the snoutbeetle(Orchidophilus aterrimus ).The snout beetleand the lady bug were associated with severe damage on 64% and 56% respectively of the trees sampled although the intensity of damage was low to medium

Abstract

This research aims to identify the types of insects found in community forest areas in Dusun Waya, Tehoru Village, Tehoru District, Central Maluku Regency, to analyze the factors influencing the presence of insects in the community forest area, and to evaluate the effectiveness of insect traps in the community forest area of Dusun Waya, Tehoru Village, Tehoru District, Central Maluku Regency. This research was conducted in May 2025. The method used in this study was an inventory method for insect data collection with a transect width of 20 meters and a length of 100 meters with an interval of 10 meters, followed by insect sampling. The results of the study at the research site in Dusun Waya, Tehoru Village, Tehoru District, Central Maluku Regency, recorded 29 insect species classified into 13 orders and 26 families, with a total of 425 individuals along the entire transect. Among the 5 transects, the highest number of insects was found using the hand collecting method, which proved to be the most effective method in this study. Factors affecting the presence of insects include air temperature, humidity, and light intensity.

Abstract

General Background Climate change poses significant challenges to tropical forest ecosystems and dependent communities, particularly through rising temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, and land-use pressures. Specific Background In eastern Indonesia, especially Buru Regency, these dynamics threaten ecosystem stability and land productivity, necessitating adaptive land management approaches such as agroforestry. Knowledge Gap However, limited empirical evidence exists regarding the biophysical characteristics and structural variability of agroforestry systems within concession-based forest management areas. Aims This study aims to analyze vegetation structure, species diversity, and development potential of climate-based agroforestry systems in the PBPH area of PT. Gema Hutani Lestari. Results The findings reveal four canopy strata (A–D) in both Wamtihut and Walsekat hamlets, indicating typical tropical forest stratification, with Wamtihut showing higher structural complexity, greater species richness (nine tree species), and moderate diversity (H’ = 1.72), while Walsekat exhibits lower diversity (H’ = 1.06) and strong dominance of Pterocymbium javanicum (IVI = 143.10). Horizontal distribution patterns include solitary, grouped, and random formations, reflecting ecological variation and land-use intensity. Notably, the absence of seedlings in both sites indicates a regeneration gap. Novelty This study provides integrated quantitative and qualitative evidence linking vegetation structure, diversity indices, and agroforestry potential within a concession-based tropical forest landscape. Implications The results highlight the need for integrated agroforestry management, institutional strengthening, and community participation to support ecosystem resilience and climate change adaptation in Buru Regency. Highlights: Multi-layer canopy composition differs markedly between two hamlets, indicating contrasting ecological conditions. One location shows moderate heterogeneity, while the other is dominated by a single pioneer species. Lack of natural regeneration signals potential long-term sustainability risks.
