Abstract

The agricultural practices carried out by the people of Aunupe Village have been going on for several generations, but the agricultural system used is not optimal because they still use a conventional farming system, namely monoculture. Apart from that, the agricultural input used is chemical fertilizer which of course does not meet the organic aspect and is not sustainable, because high chemical input and long use can damage the texture and nutrients of the soil. For this reason, community empowerment through training in the application of organic farming techniques in the form of agrosilvo conservation in an agroforestry pattern needs to be encouraged so that local communities who use land in forest areas not only obtain agricultural products but can also benefit from environmental and economic services so that they can be sustainable. Thus, the appropriate alternative that can be implemented is to utilize a non-timber farming system combined with maintaining wood trees, known as an agroforestry system, namely agrosilvo conservation. This service aims to provide knowledge and examples to the farming community regarding how to cultivate agriculture using a combination of non-timber plants and woody plants, namely with the conservation agrosilvo system. The method used is descriptive qualitative. The results of the PKMI program activities are the socialization of agro-silvoconservation activities and increased knowledge and capacity of the community in carrying out farming using the agrosilvo-conservation method.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the content of microplastics in brackish water in Kendari Bay by taking two strategic points, namely the mouth of the Wanggu River as the main entrance to materials from the mainland, and the mouth of Kendari Bay as the outlet of water into the open sea. The method used in this study is quantitative descriptive with a purposive sampling method for the determination of location and sampling points, which includes water and sediment sampling. Microplastic separation using filtration techniques, and morphological identification with stereoscopic microscopy. The data were analyzed to determine the amount, size, shape, and color of microplastic particles per milliliter of water. The results showed that the microplastic form in brackish water and sediment consists of fibers, films, fragments, and foam. The colors of the microplastics found were generally seen at both observation stations (locations), namely black (37%), transparent (31%), yellow (13%), green (13%), and blue (6%). The size of microplastics at the overall sampling point, both in brackish water and in sediments with fiber shapes ranging from approximately 0.1 mm-0.2 mm, film shapes were found with sizes ranging from 0.02 mm-0.06 mm. The fragment shape ranges in size from 0.04 mm-0.06 mm and the foam shape in size ranges from 0.01 mm to 0.27 mm. The results of microplastic measurements in two locations, namely the first location of the Wanggu River estuary obtained an abundance of microplastics in brackish water samples calculated on a scale of 150 mL, showing that microplastics at the sampling point of mangrove areas had the highest concentration, namely 16,080 particles/150 mL, followed by estuaries (13,320 particles/150 mL), and residential areas (10,560 particles/150 mL). The total abundance of all locations reached 39,960 particles/150 mL, with foam being the most abundant type (16,560 particles/150 mL), followed by fragment form (9,000 particles/150 mL), fiber (8,850 particles/150 mL), and finally film (5,550 particles/150 mL). From the relative abundance, it shows that in general, the most relative abundance is in the form of foam microplastics, both in estuaries (42.1%), residential areas (47.2%), and mangroves (37.13%). The total abundance of microplastics in the sediment of the Wanggu River Estuary is 23,860 particles/100 grams of sediment or 238.6 particles/gr. These findings indicate a fairly high level of microplastic contamination, especially in areas adjacent to residential and terrestrial activities.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems play a strategic role in global climate change mitigation due to their capacity to sequester and store carbon. This study aims to analyse carbon sequestration and carbon stocks in the mangrove forests of Waworaha Village, Soropia District, Konawe Regency. The research was conducted in February 2025 using a non-destructive sampling approach combined with established allometric equations to estimate aboveground biomass, with carbon content assumed to be 50% of the total biomass. Seven plots measuring 20 m × 20 m were purposively established based on mangrove zonation and substrate characteristics. Diameter at breast height (DBH) was measured for trees ≥10 cm, and data were analysed descriptively to quantify biomass variation across species and plots. The results indicate that mean biomass, carbon sequestration, and carbon stock values reached 174.76 tons/ha, 295.05 tons CO₂/ha, and 80.38 tons C/ha, respectively. Among recorded species, Sonneratia alba exhibited the highest carbon values, while Rhizophora apiculata contributed the lowest, reflecting significant interspecific variation influenced by morphological traits, density, and environmental conditions. Spatial variability across plots suggests the influence of tidal inundation frequency, nutrient availability, and substrate stability on biomass accumulation. These findings underscore the ecological significance of mangrove forests in storing blue carbon and their contribution to Indonesia’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). The study recommends targeted rehabilitation in low-density plots, prioritising high-biomass species to enhance carbon uptake. Further research integrating soil carbon pools is essential to generate comprehensive carbon estimates for sustainable mangrove management.

Abstract

The Tiworo Watershed on Muna Island, Southeast Sulawesi, is experiencing significant ecological and anthropogenic pressures that threaten the sustainability of its ecosystem functions. Land cover changes have led to increased surface runoff and have impacted coastal ecosystems. This study aims to evaluate the carrying capacity of the Tiworo watershed by analyzing three key parameters: percentage of critical land  (PCL), percentage of vegetation cover  (PVC), and erosion index (EI), referring to the Minister of Forestry Regulation No. P.61/Menhut-II/2014. The research methods included spatial analysis based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), collection of secondary data from satellite imagery and relevant agencies, and weighted calculations to determine land carrying capacity scores. The results revealed that 65.4% of the Tiworo watershed area is classified as potentially critical, with 8.14% falling into the critical to very critical category, mainly due to land use change and anthropogenic activities. Although vegetation cover is still relatively good (89.57%), the expansion of settlements and open land has the potential to disrupt ecological stability. The erosion index reached 13.65, far exceeding the tolerance threshold (ETOL 27.55 tons/ha/year), with 52.04% of the area experiencing very severe erosion (>480 tons/ha/year). The land carrying capacity score of 87.5 (good category) indicates that ecological capacity is still adequate, but high degradation pressure requires immediate intervention.

Abstract

The coastal area of Waworaha Village, Konawe Regency, possesses significant potential in mangrove ecosystems, water resources, and coastal landscapes that support the development of community-based ecotourism. However, environmental degradation, low public awareness, and threats from extractive activities and land-use conversion have weakened coastal resilience and community welfare. This community service program aimed to increase community participation in mangrove, water, and ecotourism management as a strategy to strengthen coastal resilience. The method employed participatory socialization through interactive lectures, focus group discussions, and field activities, including mangrove planting and environmental management education. The program involved village officials, youth groups, and coastal communities as the main actors in its implementation. The results indicate an increased community understanding of the ecological functions of mangroves as natural coastal protectors and the importance of water resource conservation for sustainable livelihoods. Community participation in mangrove planting activities and ecotourism planning discussions also increased, as shown by active involvement at every stage of the program. In addition, initial community initiatives emerged to develop mangrove-based ecotourism as an alternative, environmentally friendly, and sustainable source of income. The program also fostered collective awareness of the importance of protecting coastal areas from external environmental pressures. Thus, participatory socialization proved effective in enhancing community engagement in coastal environmental management. Increased participation serves as a crucial foundation for strengthening coastal resilience while opening opportunities to improve community welfare sustainably.

Abstract

Baground: Coastal tourism areas should be developed with an environmentally sound approach to achieving sustainable tourism, which safeguards the environment while providing a decent livelihood for surrounding communities. This study aims to assess the feasibility level of Taipa Beach tourism in Taipa Village, Lembo District, North Konawe Regency. Unlike previous studies that focus primarily on promotion or visitor statistics, this research applies a comprehensive feasibility framework, offering broader insights into sustainable coastal tourism development. Methods: Fieldwork was conducted from September to November 2024, applying the Guidelines for Analyzing the Area of Operation of Natural Tourism Objects and Attractions (ADO-ODTWA) issued by the Director General of PHKA (2003). Findings: The results show that Taipa Beach is feasible as an alternative natural tourism area, with an overall feasibility index value of 81.6%. Of the eight criteria assessed, six were declared feasible (attractiveness, accessibility, facilities and infrastructure, security, conditions around the area, and relationships with other tourist attractions), while two criteria were not yet feasible (climate and accommodation). Strategic interventions are therefore required to improve accommodation facilities and develop adaptation measures for non-ideal climatic conditions, such as supporting infrastructure to manage extreme weather. Conclusion:  Overall, Taipa Beach is considered feasible for sustainable nature-based tourism development, with a high feasibility index of 81.6%. However, improvements in accommodation facilities and climate adaptation measures are essential to enhance its sustainability and resilience as an eco-tourism destination in North Konawe Regency. Novelty/Originality of this Article: This study contributes not only to local tourism planning but also to the broader discourse on sustainable tourism and ecotourism feasibility. By integrating multi-dimensional criteria into the feasibility assessment, the research provides a replicable model for coastal tourism development in other regions facing similar challenges.
