Abstract

Non-timber forest product resources are valuable to communities around the forest which are more useful than wood in the long term and can provide good benefits from the ecosystem for sustainability, conservation, and the economy. The research aims to identify the types and economic value of non-timber forest products commodities from Conservation Partnership Forest Farmer Groups in Wan Abdul Rachman Forest Park. Data collection was carried out using interviews, literature studies and documentation. The data that has been collected is then analyzed using a Likert Scale. The method used is to calculate the economic value of each type of non-timber forest product and group it based on the highest commodity. According to the research findings, the primary commodities of Mekar Sari Forest Farmer Group are nutmeg, coffee, and cacao, while Wana Karya Forest Farmer Group's are rubber, petai, and king fruit, and Maju Lestari Forest Farmer Group's are king fruit, nutmeg, and coffee. Coffee has an economic impact of 25.01% at Mekar Sari Forest Farmer Group, 30.58% at Wana Karya Forest Farmer Group, and 36.03% at Maju Lestari Forest Farmer Group. The economic values of Forest Farmer Groups are IDR 209,375,000/year, IDR 971,444,000/year, and IDR 313,384,200. According to the calculation method, the average revenue earned from non-timber forest products is IDR 6,979,166/household/year, IDR 28,571,882/household/year, and IDR 10,594,906/household/year.

Abstract

Home gardens have significant potential to improve communities' economic, ecological, and social welfare. This study examines the socio-economic conditions and home garden utilization practices of the community in the Wan Abdul Rachman Grand Forest Park (Tahura WAR) conservation area, located in Sungai Langka Village, Pesawaran Regency, Lampung Province. Data was collected through direct interviews using structured questionnaires, with respondents selected via the Simple Random Sampling method. Descriptive analytical methods were employed for data analysis. The results reveal that 83.33% of farmers in Sungai Langka are adults aged 27–40 years, all male. The farmers belong to three ethnic groups: Javanese, Lampungese, and Sundanese, with Javanese being the majority. Most farmers (63.33%) have a secondary education level, and 83.33% engage in secondary occupations. According to the Indonesian Statistical Agency/BPS (2021) income classification, 74.5% of the population falls into the middle-income category. The average homegarden size is approximately 100 m². The majority of homegardens (90.33%) are utilized as yard gardens, followed by livestock shelters (66.33%), ornamental gardens (40.66%), and fishponds (20.55%). These findings highlight the pivotal role of homegardens in supporting the livelihoods of communities near conservation areas. This study underscores the importance of optimizing homegarden management to enhance community welfare while mitigating pressures on conservation forests.

Abstract

Ranau Lake is one of Indonesia's 30 national priority lakes facing pressures from climate change and human activities, negatively impacting its water quality and ecosystem. This study aims to analyze land cover changes in the catchment area, measure the changes in the lake's surface area, and examine the relationship between land cover changes and Ranau Lake's surface area from 2016–2022. The data includes Sentinel-1A IW GRDH imagery, ESRI land cover maps, and Google Earth images. The analysis employed Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification, spatial analysis, and linear regression. The results reveal that water bodies, vegetation, and built-up land categories experienced an increase of 36.78 hectares, 33.96 hectares, and 9.1 hectares, respectively, while bare land decreased by 80.03 hectares. Ranau Lake's surface area increased by 28.3 hectares, showing a significant relationship between land cover changes in water bodies (R² = 99.88%), bare land (R² = 94.92%), vegetation (R² = 66.06%), and built-up land (R² = 56.85%) and the lake's surface area. These findings highlight the critical role of land cover changes in influencing the dynamics of lake surface area, an essential indicator of ecosystem health. This study emphasizes the importance of sustainable land cover management in supporting Ranau Lake's conservation. Continuous use of SAR-based remote sensing technology is recommended for land cover monitoring, enabling data-driven decision-making in water resource management.

Abstract

Peatlands are vulnerable to fire, causing ecological damage that threatens biodiversity, one of which is amphibians. The nature of amphibians which are sensitive to environmental changes can be used as a bioindicator of the quality of a disturbed environment, including in buffer villages around conservation areas. This research aims to analyze the diversity of amphibians and their relationship with temperature and air humidity. The method used is Visual Encounter Survey (VES) in two types of habitats, namely oil palm plantations and swamps. Data analysis used the Shannon-Wiener species diversity index, the Pielou species evenness index, and the Pearson correlation test. The research results found 6 species of amphibians, namely Hylarana erythraea, Hylarana nicobariensis, Fejervarya limnocharis, Fejervarya cancrivora, Duttaphrynus melanustictus, and Hylarana baramica. The diversity index (H') in oil palm plantations and swamps is H'=1.46 and H'=1.10 in the medium category. This shows that ecologically, the conditions of the habitat types of oil palm plantations and swamps in the buffer villages around the Orang Kayo Hitam Forest Park after land burning can support amphibian life. Key words: Amphibians, conservation area, diversity, tropical peatland.

Abstract

Kabaena Island in Southeast Sulawesi has biodiversity, coastal landscapes, mountains and mineral content as the strength of sustainable development goals number 15 (SDGs 15). Currently, mining activities have had a negative impact on local communities in the economic, social, environmental, sanitation and health sectors due to natural degradation. This research aims to identify the tourism potential of Kabaena Island which can be promoted through digital strategies and design innovative digital marketing strategies to increase exposure of Kabaena Island tourism and support environmental sustainability. This research uses a qualitative descriptive analysis method to collect data using Google Maps analysis. A previous literature review shows that there is still minimal discussion regarding biodiversity and mineral content on Kabaena Island, which discusses the development of tourism destinations. Kabaena Island tourism development requires collaboration between government, academics and local communities to create sustainable development based on SDGs. The focus includes mining governance, creative economy, conservation and education, with digital marketing via Google Maps, destination branding and social media content. Collaboration with travel agents and business partners will support the local economy. Seminars or dissemination on sustainable development are important to strengthen governance and policies that support the community and preserve the environment.
