Abstract

Timbang Lawan merupakan salah satu desa di Kecamatan Bohorok, Kabupaten Langkat dan menjadi zona penyangga (buffer zone) Taman Nasional Gunung Leuser. Salah satu masalah desa adalah kemunculan harimau sumatera (Panthera tigris sumatrae) yang menyerang ternak warga di pinggiran hutan. Selain mengakibatkan kerugian materi, serangan harimau sumatera berpotensi menimbulkan persepsi negative terhadap satwaliar tersebut. Oleh karena itu kegiatan pengabdian USU ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk membangun harmoni antara penghidupan masyarakat dengan konservasi harimau. Kegiatan terdiri dari lima bagian, yaitu: membangun kandang anti harimau, pemeliharaan rusa untuk restocking pakan harimau, restorasi, pembuatan pakan ternak dan pengembangan ekowisata. Metode yang digunakan adalah transfer pengetahuan dan pelibatan masyarakat melalui praktek langsung lapangan. Masyarakat sangat antusias dan pemerintah desa sangat mendukung kegiatan ini, karena dapat memberi solusi langsung terhadap permasalahan masyarakat desa.Kata kunci: Timbang Lawan, Harimau sumatera, penghidupan, konservasi, konflik

Abstract

City development with unfriendly development causes the quality and quantity of open green space to decrease. Google Earth is an interactive mapping application released by google, which displays a digital visualization of the geographical shape of the earth. This study aims to determine the type and quality of trees on the urban forest in the Tanjung-Morawa sub-district and to map the quality of trees on the urban forest in the Tanjung-Morawa sub-district. This study uses a modified method of tree quality assessment with two criteria: tree health and technically criteria. From the observation result, there are 18 trees, Glodokan (Polyalthia longifolia) with the highest number, as many as 842 trees, and Dadap Merah (Erythrina crista goly) as the tree with the least amount. The quality of the trees in the urban forest shows a moderate good quality, where the highest health is in the medium category and for the technical in the low category. Trees that are recommended to be cut have a cumulative ≥ 2,5 Angsana trees with a total of 129 trees, and the highest cumulative percentage is the Banyan tree at 66,67%. The Mango tree has the lowest rate at 8,70%. Google Earth can’t be used optimally because of the low-resolution image quality. Image capture data in google earth has not been updated; the unstable internet connection and the time of the retrieval and processing of field data are not the same as the time retrieval and processing.

Abstract

Indonesia has the largest mangrove forests in the world. However, Indonesia is also listed as the largest contributor to loss of the world's mangrove forests. Good mangroves will support the lives of coastal communities and vice versa. Mangrove forests in the area of Kampung Nelayan Seberang, Medan Belawan and its surroundings were also degraded. Therefore, degraded mangrove forests need to be restored through mangrove restoration activities with the involvement of the surrounding community. This community service activity through the Assisted Village Program will carry out mangrove restoration activities with the people of Kampung Nelayan Seberang. The success of restoration activities is determined by good understanding of the mangrove ecosystem and the commitment of the community to be involved in restoring it. The objective of this study was to identify understanding related to mangrove ecosystems and community perceptions of its restoration efforts. Collecting data was carried out by interviewing respondents who represented the population. Descriptive analysis is used to describe the socio-economic conditions, understanding and perceptions of the community regarding ecosystems and mangrove restoration. Generally, respondents understand the role of mangrove forests and agree that mangrove restoration must be done together. Amount of 53 - 83% of respondents agreed and understood that mangrove restoration is important for life and has an impact on income, social and cultural life. The results showed that 60 - 90% of respondents around the restoration area need a rehabilitation program and are willing to be involved in a mangrove restoration program with the parties.

Abstract

Mangrove forests can be used directly or indirectly by communities/farmer groups around the coast. However, with the rampant forest destruction that occurs, the community or farmer groups need to be equipped with capacity building about the importance of the mangrove ecosystem and its impact on their livelihood. This study aims to identify the condition of mangrove forests in the research area and determine strategies for institutional development of forest farmer groups in coastal areas at the Production Forest Management Unit. The research method used is a qualitative method with interviews; while the analytical method used is the SWOT analysis. Based on the results of the analysis of the Internal Factor Analysis Summary (IFAS) with a strength factor value of 0.054 and a weakness value of 0.47. From the calculation of the internal environment score (IFAS) value, namely the strength factor minus the weakness factor, the value of x was obtained as the horizontal axis 0.054-0.047 = 0.007. Based on the External Factor Analysis Summary (EFAS) analysis results, the opportunity factor had a value of 0.054 with threats having a value of 0.047. The results showed that the external calculation score (EFAS), namely the opportunity factor (opportunities) reduced by the threat factor, obtained the Y value as the vertical. The identification of internal (IFAS) and external (EFAS) factors indicated that the position of institutional development of forest farmer groups in coastal areas was in quadrant one (I) or in an aggressive position that supports the SO development strategy (aggressive development strategy)
