Abstract

The mangrove forest growing along the coast of Sungai Pinang functions as a natural barrier against abrasion, a habitat for various marine biota, and a provider of essential nutrients within the coastal ecosystem chain. However, current conditions indicate that the existence of mangroves in this area continues to be threatened by human activities and the suboptimal management and utilization of the area in a sustainable manner. The main problem faced by the partner community is the lack of optimal community empowerment, particularly among fishermen’s wives, in managing and utilizing mangrove plants as an alternative economic resource. Previous conservation and educational activities were temporary and unsustainable due to limited assistance from official institutions and weak access to training, capital, and production materials. This has hindered the development of creative economic activities based on mangrove potential, such as handicrafts, batik production, and processed coastal food products. The implementation method is designed systematically and participatively so that the proposed solutions can be effectively adopted by the target partners through training and outreach. The primary goal of this program is to empower fishermen’s wives in Nagari Sungai Pinang through mangrove-based batik crafts as an economic resource, in order to realize the concept of a Green Economy in coastal areas that emphasizes environmental conservation, improved welfare, and sustainable development. The results of this program include the establishment of a creative group of fishermen’s wives producing mangrove batik, which serves as a medium for promoting coastal environmental conservation and positioning mangrove batik as a maritime tourism icon in Nagari Sungai Pinang.

Abstract

Agam Regency has significant aquatic resource potential; however, various issues such as declining water environmental quality, insufficiently controlled reso urce exploitation, and low community involvement in conservation activities pose challenges to achieving sustainable water resource management. This study aims to develop a water conservation model for Agam Regency through community empowerment (Bado and Zulkifli, 2021), based on local wisdom as an effort to improve the economic well-being of fishers. The research method employed is a mixed methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and the distribution of questionnaires to fishing communities, traditional leaders, local government officials, and other relevant stakeholders. Data analysis was conducted descriptively, participatively, and using a model development approach. The research results show that the local wisdom still practiced by the community has great potential to serve as a foundation for the management and conservation of aquatic resources. Lakoy et al. (2021) stated that the development of the conservation model was carried out through strengthening community institutions, enhancing fishers' capacity, implementing customary-based regulations, diversifying productive economic enterprises, and fostering collaboration among communities, the government, and related institutions. The resulting model places the community as the primary actor in the management of aquatic resources while continuing to take ecological, social, cultural, and economic aspects into consideration. The implementation of this model is expected to help ensure the sustainability of aquatic resources, increase public awareness of conservation, strengthen local institutions, and sustainably improve the income and welfare of fishers.

Abstract

Flash floods in the Kuranji Watershed area, Kuranji District, Padang City, have had a significant impact on the agricultural system, aquatic environment, and socio-economic conditions of the community. This study aims to analyze the condition of the agricultural system and aquatic environment after the flash flood, identify internal and external factors, and formulate adaptation strategies based on a SWOT analysis. The study used a mixed methods approach with a survey method through observation, interviews, and questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents determined using the Slovin formula. Data analysis was carried out using the IFAS matrix, EFAS, and SWOT quadrants. The results showed that flash floods caused increased damage to agricultural land, disruption of irrigation systems, decreased agricultural productivity, high river sedimentation, and decreased quality of the aquatic environment. The main strengths include the availability of water resources and community experience in the agricultural sector, while the main weaknesses are high river sedimentation and damage to the irrigation system. Opportunities come from government support and watershed rehabilitation programs, while the main threats are high rainfall and recurring floods. The results of the SWOT analysis indicate that the strategy is positioned in Quadrant III (turnaround strategy). Recommended priority strategies include watershed rehabilitation, river normalization, sedimentation control, irrigation system improvement, and strengthening community capacity in disaster mitigation.
