Abstract

The increasing population in an area often triggers heightened development, leading to diminished land availability and subsequent land conversion. This transformation, predominantly observed in agricultural and plantation lands, is driven by the need for residential areas. However, continuous land use changes contribute to erosion, a natural process wherein soil is transported, leading to sedimentation and eventual flooding. This study aims to identify critical areas prone to erosion and land degradation. To address this, we used the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) method for erosion prediction, leveraging its simplicity and accuracy. This study focuses on the Mayang watershed in East Java, utilizing a combination of USLE, spectral index modeling, and Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques to estimate soil erosion and land criticality. By integrating methodologies and analyzing data spanning from 2011 to 2021, the study reveals shifts in erosion danger levels and land use patterns. While regions with low erosion remained stable, areas with medium to high erosion declined, yet those with very high erosion exhibited a worrisome increase. Changes in land use, including forest loss and urban expansion, underscore the ecological shifts exacerbating erosion hazards. The study emphasizing the necessity for targeted conservation strategies and comprehensive land management plans to mitigate erosion risks and preserve environmental sustainability.

Abstract

Banyuwangi, with its extensive coastal area and long shoreline, possesses highly important yet vulnerable coastal ecosystems, particularly due to decreasing mangrove cover, increasing plastic waste, and the declining population of sea turtles. Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), as character-based educational institutions, have great potential to instill environmental awareness in younger generations. Therefore, contextual learning activities that directly engage students in coastal conservation efforts are needed. The field practice program at MA Unggulan Al-Anwari Banyuwangi was implemented as an effort to enhance students’ understanding and awareness of maritime issues and coastal conservation. The implementation method consisted of preparation, execution, and evaluation stages, involving 30 students in a series of activities including the planting of 60 mangrove seedlings and 40 sea pandan seedlings, a beach clean-up, and the release of 50 sea turtle hatchlings in the coastal area of Santen Island. The results showed that students not only gained contextual learning experiences, but were also directly involved in real actions to protect coastal ecosystems. There was an 11% increase in understanding, obtained from comparing pre-test and post-test scores. One-month post-planting monitoring showed that the seedlings remained in good condition, although height growth had not yet been significant. The average height increase of mangroves was 4.3 cm, while sea pandan showed an average increase of 3 cm within one month after planting. In addition, students consistently filled out the booklet as a recording instrument, reflecting the development of environmentally conscious habits. This program has proven effective as a pesantren-based environmental education medium while supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4, SDG 13, and SDG 14.

Abstract

Banyuwangi has quite a lot of coastal areas. However, the negative impact of many coastal areas is that garbage is generally disposed of in the waters starting from the river which will eventually empty into the sea or directly dumped into the open sea. The mindset of Indonesian people including Banyuwangi residents who consider the sea as a garbage dump has not changed much. Santen island is one of the beaches in Banyuwangi with less waste management. As a solution to these problems, socialization is needed to increase awareness to the community and provide training to the community in handling organic waste. Socialization and training conducted is the utilization of organic waste as Eco-Enzyme with partners are coastal women. Eco-Enzyme is. This PkM implementation method consists of five stages, namely Pre-activity, presentation, Breefing training, training, and Evaluation and closing. Participants who attended this activity were 23 women of various ages. On the day of the training, the participants had prepared all the materials, then the organizing team divided the participants into 4 groups. For the ratio of ingredients for making this eco-enzyme is 1: 3: 10, where 1 is for sugar in grams, 3 is for fruit skin or vegetable scraps in grams, and 10 is water in mL. The socialization of the material on the first day increased participants' awareness of the importance of waste management and participants' enthusiasm in making eco-enzymes. Each participant in each group made eco-enzyme according to the instructions from the presenter.After three months, the participants were able to use Eco-Enzyme products as glass cleaners, toilet cleaners and bathrooms, while the pulp became fertilizer for ornamental plants in their homes.
