Abstract

North Dulamayo Forest is one of the forests that are rich in both biological and non-biological natural resources. This natural wealth is used as a source of life for the local community to meet their daily needs. As a result of the conversion of forest functions into agricultural land, the surrounding community, animals, plants, and the environment as a whole. This study aims to obtain information on the physical condition and impact of land conversion in the North Dulamayo Forest area, Telaga Biru District, Gorontalo Regency, and Gorontalo Province. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The subjects in this study were people living around the forest. Collecting data using observation, interview, and documentation techniques. The results of the study found that the people around the Dulamayo Forest chose to convert the forest into agricultural land to meet their daily needs. The transfer of function has an impact on forest destruction, reducing the number of flora and habitats of various animals in the North Dulamayo Forest. Another impact that often occurs is the cause of landslides in the rainy season.

Abstract

"Dumbaya (Momordica cochinchinensis (Lour.) Spreng) is one of the plant species believed by the Gorontalo community to be a traditional remedy for various ailments such as inflammation, liver disorders, spleen issues, hemorrhoids, bruising, and infected wounds. Currently, the dumbaya plant is difficult to find and is even considered nearly extinct by the Gorontalo community. This is due to the challenging conventional cultivation of dumbaya plants from seeds. Dumbaya seeds have a hard, stone-like texture, making germination in the wild difficult and requiring special treatment. Regeneration of dumbaya can be achieved through tissue culture techniques, replacing the conventional cultivation system.Through tissue culture, dumbaya seeds are grown in specialized planting media and controlled environments. Based on observations, the propagation of dumbaya plants using in vitro culture techniques has proven successful and effective as a solution for propagating dumbaya seedlings. Dumbaya seeds begin to germinate two weeks after planting (2 WAP). The grown dumbaya seedlings can then be used as explants for further dumbaya propagation by inducing callus formation."
