Abstract

The Indonesian Government has empowered communities that are living adjacent to forests, but at the same time, protection forests are highly encroached by the local community. In response, our study aims at formulating strategies of community empowerment in protection forest management. Data collection through participatory observation, questionnaire surveys, interviews, and focused group discussions were conducted in the surrounding communities of protected forest areas in Sumbawa District, Indonesia. A combination of descriptive, participatory, and explorative approaches were used for data analysis. The knowledge of local communities on protection forest conservation was found to be on an average level, while their attitudes towards conservation were assessed as being on a higher level. Community empowerment programs implemented by the government were shown to have no significant effect on knowledge improvement, but they were more effective in changing the community's attitudes regarding protection forest management. Local communities were shown to be willing to conduct conservation activities as well as looking for cash income. Therefore, our study suggested that community empowerment programs should link forest conservation with income opportunities for local people, such as implementing conservation agriculture (e.g. agroforestry), partnerships in the production and sale of non-timber forest products, and be conducting clearly reward and punishment for communities.

Abstract

Climate change is a critical issue currently and is often linked to forest resources as a source of carbon storage. In response, we need to study the potential for carbon stock in forest ecosystems in an effort to mitigate climate change. This research was conducted in acacia stands in the BKPH Parung Panjang research forest, KPH Bogor, and aimed to estimate the potential of carbon stock in plantations of the acacia forest. Apart from being a forest with particular research purposes, acacia stands can store carbon of 36.32 tons/ha or 799.04 tons of CO2 eq on a total area of 6 ha. This carbon stock value is much smaller than that of acacia stands in general because the tree diameter is still relatively small. Even though this acacia plantation forest does not contribute significantly to climate change mitigation, it contributes positively to creating coolness for the surrounding community.

Abstract

Mangrove forests have tangible and intangible benefits, but mangrove deforestation and degradation in Indonesia are relatively high due to economic reasons. Mangroves can contribute economically by considering social and economic characteristics, such as natural dye on traditional fabrics. Unfortunately, studies on mangroves' potential as a natural fabric dye and their relationship with social and economic potential are limited. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the feasibility, prospects, and challenges in developing natural dyes from mangroves for traditional fabrics. Through field observations in the Leuweung Sancang Nature Reserve in Garut Regency, interviews, and literature studies, this study used a descriptive approach with SWOT and financial analysis. At least three mangrove species can be used as natural dyes to produce brown color variants: Bruguiera gymnorrizha, Rhizophora mucronata, and Rhizophora apiculata. The strategic location, with an intense fabric industry and high community motivation, provided opportunities to develop mangrove dye products. The business was feasible and resistant to the economic crisis. However, even though the community knows the mangrove benefits of natural fabric dyes, there was no development practice because of no assistance in processing. Supports from the government, forestry extension agents, NGOs, and universities are essential for mangrove conservation while improving livelihood and economic welfare through the mangrove natural dyes business.

Abstract

Indigenous peoples are caretakers and practitioners of a unique culture connected to their community and the surrounding environment, including forests. In Indonesia, existing regulations acknowledge the identity of indigenous peoples and the forests they oversee. This paper provided evidence of the acknowledgment of customary forests and indigenous peoples, addressing the challenges and opportunities for managing customary forest products, both timber and non-timber, under a timber legality assurance scheme. This research is essential in advocating for legal reforms that protect the rights of indigenous peoples and ensure sustainable forest management while balancing environmental conservation with local community needs. The study sought to illuminate the challenges Indigenous Peoples encounter when accessing and utilizing forests and forest products within their customary territories. It employed exploration methods to gather reliable data and information, validated through expert interviews and described using triangulation. The research concluded that legal innovations are necessary to resolve issues concerning the recognition of customary forests and indigenous peoples to enable effective forest management while safeguarding the rights of indigenous peoples socially, economically, and ecologically. In addition, legal innovations are also required to avoid breaches of timber legality assurance, which can result in forest unsustainability. To enhance the effectiveness of these reforms, it is important to foster collaboration between government bodies and indigenous communities in developing and implementing forest management policies. Keywords: customary forests, forest governance, indigenous peoples, timber legality assurance

Abstract

Mitigation actions to address climate change are essential to prevent future adverse impacts, with woody species in forests playing a pivotal role in carbon storage, as exemplified by the agroforestry systems commonly practiced in community forests of Bogor Regency, which integrate woody species and crops. This study aimed to analyze changes in vegetation density using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) approach, analyze stand structure and composition, and estimate above-ground carbon stocks in the agroforestry land of community forest in Tenjolaya Sub-District, Bogor Regency. The methods used were spatial analysis with NDVI, vegetation analysis, and carbon stock estimation using allometric and destructive methods. The plot size was 50 m × 50 m, totaling 21 plots. NDVI analysis resulted in low density (0.59–0.67), moderate density (0.67–0.78), and high density (0.78–0.85). This study found 178 plant species across 40 families, with Fabaceae and Myrtaceae being the most dominant. The carbon stock is 27.69 tons carbon/ha. Carbon stock is significantly influenced by tree density, number of species, and basal area values. A well-managed community forest has high ecological, economic, and social potential through the development of agroforestry, which can maintain biodiversity and environmental sustainability while storing carbon stocks. Keywords: above-ground carbon, agroforestry, community forest, normalized difference vegetation index, vegetation density

Abstract

Private forests cultivated using agroforestry systems have the potential to produce timber, non-timber forest products, and a variety of agricultural crops. However, such forests are still being managed in a traditional manner, both in terms of cultivation techniques and management. The Service activities of the Dosen Pulang Kampung Program specifically aimed to introduce an innovative tree felling technique called the sandat technique, which minimizes the risk of damage to understory vegetation. The method used in this program is service learning, which integrates academic learning with community service through training sessions (both theoretical and practical). The results show that community forest farmers and loggers have understood this technique, recognizing it as a newly introduced method that they find highly beneficial and are eager to adopt in their forest-management practices. Consequently, they expressed their intention to adopt it for managing community forests. This innovation has started to demonstrate increased knowledge, a shift in attitudes (towards adoption), and satisfaction with the program itself. The Sandat Technique is thus critical to becoming a policy in community forest management and should be disseminated by the forestry office/branch to community forest farmers for adoption in the future.

Abstract

Beberapa kebun dan pekarangan di perkotaan Indonesia belum dikelola secara optimal, salah satunya terjadi di Kelurahaan Mulyaharja, Kota Bogor. Urban farming bisa menjadi solusi untuk meningkatkan kemanfaatan dari kebun dan pekarangan di perkotaan. Untuk memperkenalkan urban farming dengan kebermanfaatan yang optimal, sosialisasi dan pendampingan dilaksanakan pada bulan September – Oktober 2021 di Kelurahan Mulyaharja, Kota Bogor dengan sasaran anggota KWT Ciharashas. Diawali survei, diskusi, dan sosialisasi bersama pihak kelurahan, pengelola wisata, kelompok tani, dan tokoh masyarakat setempat, disepakati bahwa diperlukan aplikasi rain garden dan eco-enzyme sebagai salah satu cara mewujudkan urban farming yang efektif dan rendah biaya. Masyarakat yang awalnya tidak tahu dan bahkan belum pernah mendengar istilah rain garden dan eco-enzyme bersemangat melaksanakan kegiatan pembangunan plot contoh di lahan kelompok tani. Selain pemanfaatan lahan lebih optimal, aspek estetika dan kesehatan lingkungan mengalami perubahan ke arah positif. Pembangunan demplot instalasi rain garden disertai poster tentang petunjuk pembuatan eco-enzyme yang menarik dapat dipahami dengan mudah dan cepat oleh masyarakat. Pemilihan lokasi demplot di KWT yang berprestasi sekaligus berlokasi di sekitar tempat wisata tematik menjadikan upaya penyebaran informasi tentang rain garden dan ecoenzyme bisa lebih efektif.Â
