Abstract

Legokherang Village is an agrarian village so that agriculture, livestock and plantations develop well. Besides that, there are still traditional cultures such as Sidekah Bumi and Pesta Dadung that take advantage of agricultural products and plants  from  their  environment. It  is  important  to  document  the  ethnobotany knowledge of the Legokherang Village community to determine the use of plants, the parts of plants used and how to process them so that the community's knowledge in the use of plants is not lost. Research on ethnobotany of useful plants in Legokherang Village was carried out by survey methods and semi- structured interviews or questionnaires with the determination of respondents based on the snow ball sampling technique.. The results showed that the number of   species   obtained   from   ethnobotany   were   125   species   and   53   plant families. Food-producing plants and medicinal plants were mostly used, namely 39 species and 31 species. The most useful part of the plant is the leaves, for plant processing it is done in several ways, namely burning, boiling, pounding, slicing and using it directly without processing.Keywords: ethnobotany, useful plants
