Abstract

The tradition of Merarik Kodeq, or early marriage, remains a serious issue for the Sasak community in West Nusa Tenggara. The aim of this study is to explore the ethnobiological perspective on the Merarik Kodeq culture in West Lombok and to identify the efforts made by the local government of West Lombok Regency to curb the growing prevalence of Merarik Kodeq. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method. Informants were selected using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, namely couples who married at an early age. The results show that the average age of early marriage in Sekotong Barat Village is 16–17 years. At this age, reproductive organs are still in the developmental stage, especially the female reproductive system, which functions as the place for fetal development. Therefore, pregnancies occurring at this age pose a high risk of miscarriage, birth defects, and even maternal and infant mortality. In response to the increasing rate of Merarik Kodeq or early marriage, the local government initiated a movement known as the Anti-Merarik Kodeq Movement.

Abstract

Indian mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta) is a small pelagic fish species that has economic value to the community. Overfishing without management causes population decline and negative impacts on fish stocks. This study aims to analyze the morphometric characteristics of indian mackerel at Tanjung Luar Fish Landing Base (PPI), East Lombok. Data from 72 fish were collected from January to April 2024 using observation method and quantitative statistical analysis. The results of descriptive analysis showed that indian mackerel landed in Tanjung Luar PPI had average morphometric characteristics such as total length (22.07cm), standard length (18.75cm), fork length (20,35cm), head length (5.23cm), head height (4.47cm), body height (5.7cm), eye diameter (1.32cm), first dorsal fin base length (3.27cm), second dorsal fin base length (2.89cm), pectoral fin base length (2.60cm), ventral fin base length (2.35cm), anal fin base length (2.61cm), tail shaft length (4.14cm), tail shaft height (0.96cm), lower tail fin length (4.28 cm), and upper tail fin length (4.24cm). Fish growth showed an isometric growth pattern, with body parts growing proportionally. The dominant fish sizes caught were in the juvenile category at 18.2-20.6 cm (44%) and adults at 25.7-28.1 cm (28%). However, the large number of juvenile fish caught indicates the potential for overfishing, requiring effective management such as setting minimum size and fishing time to maintain the sustainability of the fish population.

Abstract

The Bebubus tradition is a traditional medicine practice practiced by the Sasak tribe on Lombok Island that is still maintained to this day. This practice involves the use of various types of medicinal plants that have been passed down from generation to generation. This study aims to analyze the ethnobotanical perspective of the Bebubus tradition of the Sasak people on Lombok Island and determine the role of the Bebubus tradition in the harmonization of humans and nature to realize SDGs on Lombok Island. This research uses an ethnographic approach with the methods of in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and literature analysis. Information was collected from Bebubus practitioners, community leaders, and local residents in several villages on Lombok Island. The data obtained were analyzed qualitatively to identify the types of plants used, treatment methods, and cultural values associated with the practice of Bebubus. The results showed that the Bebubus tradition uses more than 11 types of medicinal plants that have various healing properties. This practice is not only beneficial for physical health, but also has deep spiritual and social values for the Sasak people. In addition, Bebubus contributes to the conservation of local biodiversity and supports the community's economy through the sustainable use of natural resources. The Bebubus tradition of the Sasak Tribe has great potential in supporting the achievement of SDGs, especially in terms of health and well-being (SDGs goal 3), especially in goal 3.9 reducing disease and death from hazardous chemicals and pollution. The preservation and development of Bebubus practices can be a model of sustainable harmonization between humans and nature, and enrich ethnobotanical knowledge in Indonesia.
