ISSN : 16936892     EISSN : 27220257     DOI : https://doi.org/10.46359/jte
Core Subject : Agriculture,
The journal publishes critical reviews, original research papers, short communications, notes and comments covering all aspects of ethnobiology. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology readership is as wide and diverse as ethnobiology itself, with readers spanning from both the natural and social sciences. Not surprisingly, a glance at the papers published in the Journal reveals the depth and breadth of topics, extending from studies in archaeology and the origins of agriculture, to folk classification systems, to food composition, plants, birds, mammals, fungi and everything in between. Research areas published in Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology include but are not limited to neo- and paleo-ethnobiology, zooarchaeology, ethnobotany, ethnozoology, ethnopharmacology, ethnoecology, linguistic ethnobiology, human paleoecology, and many other related fields of study within anthropology and biology, such as taxonomy, conservation biology, ethnography, political ecology, and cognitive and cultural anthropology. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology does not limit itself to a single perspective, approach or discipline, but seeks to represent the full spectrum and wide diversity of the field of ethnobiology, including cognitive, symbolic, linguistic, ecological, and economic aspects of human interactions with our living world. Articles that significantly advance ethnobiological theory and/or methodology are particularly welcome, as well as studies bridging across disciplines and knowledge systems. Journal of Tropical Ethnobiology does not publish uncontextualized data such as species lists; appropriate submissions must elaborate on the ethnobiological context of findings.

Abstract

The main challenge for urban food security is a public policy perspective that considers food security only from a rural lens and agricultural activities in the cities are appraised to have no place. In dealing with that challenge, the local government of Depok City has developed a local urban food system program called Pekarangan Pangan Lestari (P2L) in Bojongsari Sub-district. The existence of P2L influenced the increase of Depok City's food security score by 1.68 within 5 years and placed Depok City as the 10th city with the highest food security index in Indonesia. This study aims to document the characteristics and utilization of P2L in the Bojongsari Sub-district. The research was conducted using in- depth interviews with 30 people and field observation in 33 P2L. The area of Pekarangan Pangan Lestari (P2L) in the Bojongsari Sub-district can be found in the villages of Duren Seribu, Duren Mekar, Pondok Petir, and Serua, is categorized as moderate and narrow, and managed by the Women Farmers group. P2L functions as living barns (lumbung hidup), living stalls (warung hidup), living pharmacies (apotek hidup), nurseries, livestock, and fisheries. A total of 92 species belonging to 86 genera and 47 families were identified in Bojongsari Sub-district. These plants have been used by the society in Bojongsari Sub-district as a source of medicine, vegetables, spices, herbs, vitamins, and carbohydrates as much as 55%, 17%, 10, 9, 8,17, respectively.

Abstract

Community participation has been identified as a key factor in ensuring the long-term sustainability and effective governance of these valuable ecosystems. The three pillars of sustainable protected area management are forms of ecological, social and economic management that enhance the function of protected areas and can support human life. Mangrove forests play a crucial role in coastal ecosystems, providing numerous ecological, economic, and socio-cultural benefits to local communities. Understanding the diverse range of tangible and intangible benefits associated with mangrove forests is essential for comprehending the motivations and incentives that encourage community engagement in their conservation and sustainable management. The review highlights the complex interplay between tangible and intangible benefits and their influence on community participation in mangrove management. The review underscores the importance of recognizing and valuing both types of benefits, as they are intertwined and shape the attitudes, behaviors, and decision-making processes of local communities. Interdisciplinary studies that incorporate ecological, economic, social, and cultural dimensions is needed to comprehensively understand the multifaceted benefits of mangrove forests and their role in driving community participation in mangrove management. Such insights can inform policy and management strategies that promote sustainable development and effective conservation of mangrove ecosystems, ultimately contribute to the well-being of both coastal communities and the environment.
