Abstract

Halaban Monitoring Post, Sei Betung Resort, Gunung Leuser National Park is a rehabilitated forest restoration location since 2017 after previously being diversified from oil palm land. The location has currently become a habitat for various types of animals, including bats. The identification of bat species at the Halaban Monitoring Post is conducted to assess the presence of fauna, with important ecological roles in pollination. Identification was conducted using mist nets installed at five observation points. Our observations showed that 87 individuals of Microchiroptera family bats were found, belonging to 4 species: Cynopterus brachyotis (38 individuals), Cynopterus minutus (15 individuals), Glischropus tylopus (1 individual), Hipposideros cervinus (33 individuals). Further analysis showed Shannon-Wiener diversity index ranges from 0.0 to 0.94 and Margalef species richness index ranges from 0.0 to 0.69. Bat abundance tends to be evenly distributed with an evenness index of 0.0 to 1.35. There is a dominant species at one of the locations with a dominance index value of 0.85.

Abstract

Institutions are the rules of the game that can regulate the activities of Farmers Group members to support Social Forestry activities. The study aimed to analyze the structure, roles, and institutional rules of the Farmers Group of Karya Tani Mandiri and the Farmers Group of Karya Bakti in the Forest Management Unit of Batutegi, Indonesia. Data collection was carried out using interviews, observations, and literature studies. The data that has been collected is then analyzed using a Likert scale. The results showed that Farmers Group of Karya Bakti in terms of structure, roles, and complete game rules compared to Farmers Group Karya Tani Mandiri. This is because the Farmers Group of Karya Tani Mandiri at the time in the field did not have Memorandum of Association/Article of Association, Decree of the Regent, institution’s structure, the role of the structure, but the facts in the field Farmers Group of Karya Bakti violated the rules of the game in the Memorandum of Association/Article of Association, namely cutting down trees for personal gain. In forest areas, the application of the game rules to the institution's performance of the Farmers Group of Karya Tani Mandiri and the Farmers Group of Karya Bakti needs to be improved so that forest management can be sustainable by understanding and obeying the rules of the game that apply.

Abstract

Teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) is a plant that produces raw materials for the wood industry, which is very popular due to its high quality and selling value. Procurement of teak seeds can be done in two ways: generatively and vegetatively. One problem in cultivating this plant is the inhibition of seed germination due to dormancy. Teak roots experience physical inactivity, namely tough skin. One technique that can be used to break seed dormancy is through chemical treatment. This study aims to determine the concentration of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and the appropriate soaking time to break the teak seeds dormancy. This research was conducted for two months in the Permanent Nursery of the Department of Forestry, State Agricultural Polytechnic of Kupang, from 15 November 2022 until 15 January 2023. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with two factors. The first factor was the concentration of a sulfuric acid solution (control: K0, 75% H2SO4: K1, 80% H2SO4: K2, and 85% H2SO4: K3). The second factor was the soaking time (T1: 45 minutes, T2: 50 minutes, and T3: 55 minutes). The two factors was combined to produce 12 treatment combinations as a whole. Each treatment was repeated three times and used ten seeds, so the total seeds used were 360 seeds. The results showed that there was an interaction between the concentration of sulfuric acid solution (H2SO4) with soaking time length, where the combination of 75% sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration and 45 minutes of soaking time gave higher results than other treatments, so it can be said that this combination is better at breaking teak seed dormancy.

Abstract

Cajeput oil is one of the non-timber forest products produced by distilling Cajeput leaves of the Melaleuca leucadendron Linn type. Several factors influence the quality of Cajeput oil, including filling the leaves in the kettle, tree variety, where the Cajeputi grows, storage of the leaves, distillation techniques, distillation temperature, and age. This research aims to determine the effect of storage time for raw materials on the yield, refractive index, and sineol content of Cajeput oil and the best time to store refining raw materials before distillation. The raw materials for distillation are taken from Rote Ndao Regency and then stored for varying lengths of time ranging from 3 days, 4 days, and 5 days, and the distillation method used is the boil method. The research results showed that the highest average per parameter was obtained after 5 days of storage with a yield value of 2.43%, a refractive index of 1.45%, and a sineole content of 56.67%. The average weight of cineole content and refractive index is included in the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 06-03954-2014).

Abstract

This study aims to determine the conflict mitigation efforts that have been carried out and analyze strategies for managing human-elephant conflicts in the Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park. The research data was collected by focus group discussion and observation. The collected data were analyzed descriptively based on the factors of strength, weakness, opportunity and threat analysis to determine the strategy for managing human-elephant conflict. The results of the study indicate that several efforts have been made to reduce the incidence of conflict through patrols, monitoring, and dispelling and escorting using firecrackers. The strategy supports an aggressive growth policy (growth oriented strategy). It is hoped that the incidence of human-elephant conflict can be reduced or suppressed through a holistic and integrative approach. Mitigation of human conflict with elephants that can be done in the long term is by making special interest tourism programs and increasing human resource capacity. Keywords: conflict, conflict management, elephant, mitigation strategy

Abstract

Landslide is a very dangerous natural disaster and often occurs in many hilly or mountainous areas, it often occurs without warning and causes loss of life and property, marked by the displacement of slope-forming material in the form of rocks, soil, or material down the slope. This study aims to model landslide-prone areas in the core zone of the Lore Lindu biosphere reserve in Central Sulawesi Province using the overlay method with a score between 6 parameters. The research parameters included land cover/use, rainfall, elevation, slope, soil type, and lithology. The weighting analysis produces three variables that determine the level of landslide vulnerability: slope, land use, and rainfall. The results showed that the level of vulnerability to landslides in the study area was divided into 4 classes, namely 17.482,15 ha (8,10%) non-prone areas, 98.372,96 ha (45,60%) low vulnerability areas, 98.032,51 ha (45,45%). moderate hazard area, and 1.832,04 ha (0,85%) high hazard area. In high vulnerability zones small or large-scale landslides often occur due to high rainfall and steep to very steep slopes, the rock forms in the form of sediment. Vegetation conditions are generally lacking. The areas included in this class are the villages of Bulili, Lawua, Sedoa, Katu, and Karunia.

Abstract

The Bogor Botanical Garden (KRB) is a significant conservation site in Indonesia, serving as a sanctuary for a diverse range of plant species, including the genus Averrhoa, which holds both economic and ecological value. Plant morphology studies are essential for species classification and biodiversity conservation. This study aims to identify the morphological characteristics of leaves from three Averrhoa species (Averrhoa bilimbi, Averrhoa carambola, and Averrhoa dolichocarpa) as a tool for field identification. Conducted at the Morphology, Anatomy, and Cytology Laboratory of the Bogor Botanical Garden, the research utilized visual observation and digital microscopy to analyze key leaf traits. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis revealed significant differences in adaxial leaf color and lamina shape, although certain characteristics, such as abaxial color and leaf margin type, were similar across species. These findings demonstrate that leaf architecture is an effective means of identifying Averrhoa species and contribute to taxonomy and biodiversity conservation efforts. Further research is recommended to expand sampling and explore genetic correlations.
