Abstract

Bandar Lampung City has substantially altered its land cover due to rapid urbanization in the past decade. Landsat 8 OLI is suitable for conducting land cover change research and offers current and precise data on the present land cover. This research aimed to monitor and analyze the changes in seven categories of land use and land cover (LULC): forest, agricultural land, rice field, settlement, water body, bare land and industrial area. The land use and land cover (LULC) in Bandar Lampung City were analyzed using Landsat 8 OLI satellite images from 2013 to 2023. The Random Forest Algorithm was employed for this analysis. The LULC model assessment was carried out with a confusion matrix, resulting in almost perfect agreement for the 2013 and 2023 LULC models. The LULC classes showed an area growth in settlement of 5,526.25 ha (29.12%) and agricultural land of 1,071.63 ha (5.30%) but opposite with forest class that experienced significant area loss that reached 2,012.35 ha (-26.02%) and waterbody and industrial area 285.64 (-6.15%) and 167.67 ha (-4.04%), respectively. The findings reveal significant shifts in forest and agricultural land, highlighting the region’s rapid urbanization and deforestation patterns. These changes have practical implications for environmental management and urban planning, suggesting the need for sustainable LULC policies to prevent the impacts of rapid LULC transformations on ecosystem services and local communities.

Abstract

The existence of components that did not represent the concept of ecotourism and the decline in the number of visits was very significant. This research evaluated tourism performance based on tourists’ perspectives to determine the components that need improvement. The respondents in this study were 100 tourists, who were obtained by applying the Slovin formula. This study used primary data collected through research questionnaires distributed to respondents. The research instrument was tested to ensure its validity and reliability. The collected data were analyzed using the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), Gap Analysis, and Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA). Petengoran Mangrove Tourism does not match tourists’ expectations. The attributes that become the main priority because their performance is considered not to have met tourists’ expectations are the availability and diversity of tourist activities, accessibility conditions, implementation of educational activities, and several facilities that do not meet tourist satisfaction, even though these components are what tourists highly expected. Keywords: customer satisfaction index, mangrove tourism, Petengoran, tourism performance, tourist perception

Abstract

The existence of an institution system and customary chief is very important for the sustainability of customary forest management. This study attempts to explain the function of the traditional chief of Wetu Telu community in the management of indigenous forests in the Bayan Sub-District, North Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province, as well as the institutional framework and changes in that function. Observation, interviews, and documentation were used to collect data. The data obtained was analyzed thematically using Nvivo 12 Software, while a descriptive analysis used the Milles and Huberman Model. The results show that customary chiefs have the following roles: raise public awareness, spearhead conservation efforts, convey moral and spiritual messages, guide and oversee conservation efforts, mediate conflicts of interest related to nature, lead religious activities related to nature, and establish communication and collaboration. The institutional system of the Wetu Telu community’s customary chief consists of several components, including special requirements, an appointment mechanism, personnel, a term of office, a source of income, and a dismissal mechanism. The role of the customary chief in indigenous forest management continues to be strengthened from time to time. The reasons for strengthening the role of the customary chief are the issuance of the Constitutional Court Decision Number 35 of 2012 concerning the status of indigenous forests, the recognition of the success of local wisdom-based forest management patterns, increasing public awareness of the importance of environmental conservation, global warming, and, the development of ecotourism. Keywords: customary chief, indigenous forest management, local government, Wetu Telu community

Abstract

Agroforestry system is a form of integrated land use involving forestry and agriculture, which is expected to help overcome the problems of increasing demand for agricultural land, decreasing environmental quality and poverty rates, and resulting in increasingly complex global issues. This system includes a combination of forestry crops with agricultural crops or other plants that can grow together on the same land. The application of agroforestry can improve agricultural welfare, overcome the environmental crisis and poverty, and maintain the sustainability of natural resource conservation. Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) fiber is an interesting plant to cultivate using an agroforestry system. It is easy to cultivate, positively impacts the environment, and has many application benefits because it is known as a strong and long-lasting fiber. On the other hand, the textile industry in Indonesia still predominantly uses cotton fiber which has low productivity, so the value of cotton imports increases yearly. Given the increasing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable textiles, researchers and industry stakeholders are looking for other materials that provide functionality and environmental advantages. Ramie fiber is a type of natural fiber with advantages compared to other natural fibers, such as tensile strength, mechanics, and cellulose content, which has similar characteristics to cotton so that ramie can be applied as a functional textile material to replace cotton. This review paper aims to provide an in-depth overview of all ramie fiber properties, methods, and applications for functional textiles. This article highlights the environmental benefits of ramie fiber and its potential to encourage a more sustainable textile industry, citing various sources. Keywords: agroforestry, forestry crops, functional textile, ramie fiber, ramie’s properties

Abstract

Tree felling is an important component of the forest harvesting system. A skyline-assisted felling technique (locally known as the ‘sandat’ felling technique) is used in private forest harvesting in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia, as an alternative to the conventional felling technique. This felling technique is used in private forests planted with an agroforestry pattern. Private forest farmers have recognized the technique as an effective way to protect multi-purpose tree species, especially coffee plants, but the technique’s efficiency is not yet known. The study analyzed the costs and productivity of sandat felling techniques in private forests planted with agroforestry patterns in Probolinggo. Working time studies, branch-free height, and breast height diameter measurements were carried out to calculate felling costs and productivity. The present value cost function was developed to compare the costs of sandat felling techniques with conventional felling techniques. The study showed that the productivity of sandat felling techniques was lower than conventional felling techniques. In contrast, the operating costs of sandat felling techniques were higher than those of conventional felling techniques. The operating cost per m3 rose by 20%. Additional operating costs for sandat felling techniques were incurred for procuring ropes and installing and uninstalling skyline. The felling costs will decrease with the felling team's increasing experience and skill. Keywords: agroforestry, costs analysis, felling techniques, private forests, sandat felling

Abstract

Gall rust disease poses a significant threat to falcata (Falcataria moluccana [Miq.] Barneby & J.W. Grimes), particularly in different elevation ranges. This study aimed to assess the gall rust disease incidence and severity at low (0–200 masl), moderate (201–400 masl), and high (401–600 masl) elevations. Results showed a significant correlation between gall rust disease incidence and severity and elevation based on Spearman rho correlation analysis. Higher elevations were associated with increased gall rust disease incidence and severity. This suggests that environmental conditions specific to these elevations may aggravate gall rust development. Based on the findings, temperature and relative humidity, which vary with elevation, play a role in gall rust disease incidence. Conversely, light intensity significantly influences gall rust disease severity across elevation ranges. These findings signify the importance of elevation-related factors in disease management strategies in falcata plantations. By identifying the relationship between gall rust disease and elevation, this research provides insightful information that can be used to improve disease management strategies and create focused control measures. The results provide an in-depth understanding of gall rust disease dynamics and offer recommendations for reducing its impact. Keywords: disease incidence, disease severity, elevation, Falcataria moluccana, gall rust

Abstract

Forest land conversion has caused global climate change, reducing biodiversity and food security challenges. Climate change’s influence on food security must be anticipated promptly by adopting an adaptable agricultural cultivation system, such as agroforestry. The Bangka community is one of many that continue to practice agroforestry. In the Bangka community, agroforestry is known as kelekak. This research aims to learn about the history, variety of species, challenges, and conservation strategies of kelekak. This study's data was gathered through interviews, field observations, and literature studies. Kelekak is a woodland region historically used by the community to produce dryland rice (ume), which later became kelekak agroforestry land. Several fruit plant species are commonly found on kelekak land, including durian (Durio zibethinus), mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana), cempedak (Artocarpus integer), and ketapi (Sandoricum koetjape). The community utilizes various plant species in the kelekak as food, medicine, building materials, and firewood. Kelekak’s survival is threatened by land conversion to monoculture plantations, limiting community resource access. Efforts to revive the kelekak can be achieved through the Tri Stimulus Amar Pro-Konservasi approach by integrating natural, benefit, and religious willingness stimulus. Efforts to reinvigorate kelekak must begin immediately, with mapping activities for the remaining kelekak in the Central Bangka area to provide primary data for future kelekak development and local government regulations to conserve kelekak.

Abstract

Mitigation actions to address climate change are essential to prevent future adverse impacts, with woody species in forests playing a pivotal role in carbon storage, as exemplified by the agroforestry systems commonly practiced in community forests of Bogor Regency, which integrate woody species and crops. This study aimed to analyze changes in vegetation density using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) approach, analyze stand structure and composition, and estimate above-ground carbon stocks in the agroforestry land of community forest in Tenjolaya Sub-District, Bogor Regency. The methods used were spatial analysis with NDVI, vegetation analysis, and carbon stock estimation using allometric and destructive methods. The plot size was 50 m × 50 m, totaling 21 plots. NDVI analysis resulted in low density (0.59–0.67), moderate density (0.67–0.78), and high density (0.78–0.85). This study found 178 plant species across 40 families, with Fabaceae and Myrtaceae being the most dominant. The carbon stock is 27.69 tons carbon/ha. Carbon stock is significantly influenced by tree density, number of species, and basal area values. A well-managed community forest has high ecological, economic, and social potential through the development of agroforestry, which can maintain biodiversity and environmental sustainability while storing carbon stocks.

Abstract

Plant canopies can protect the soil surface from raindrops and rooting activities that cause changes in biophysical properties. A low infiltration rate will reduce the soil’s capacity to store water to be low, resulting in a high soil erodibility value. This research aims to obtain infiltration values on different land cover, analyze the effect of land cover on soil infiltration rate, and analyze the effect of soil infiltration rate on soil erodibility. The research includes exploratory, descriptive research with a purposive sampling method. The study results show an increased soil infiltration rate can reduce soil erodibility. The infiltration rate of 74-year-old mahogany land cover ranged from 1.94–3.03 cm/hour, 50-year-old mahogany 1.61 cm/hour, old pine 1.53–1.89 cm/hour, old tapped pine 1.54–3.43 cm/hour, young pine 0.48–1.60 cm/hour, young pine 0.37–0.61 cm/hour, and 5-year-old sonokelling 0.56–0.73 cm/hour. The highest infiltration value is in 74-year-old mahogany and the lowest in young pine. The highest soil erodibility value is in young tapped pine and the lowest in 50-year-old mahogany. Erodibility is the sensitivity of soil to erosion. It is easier to erode if its erodibility value is higher; conversely, erosion is less likely to occur if its erodibility value is lower. An increase in soil infiltration rate can reduce soil erodibility. Keywords: Horton method, land cover, Mount Bromo, soil erodibility, soil infiltration rate

Abstract

Coffee is commonly cultivated under agroforestry systems, including dry-field and homegarden. These systems were differentiated based on their proximity to the settlements, which might influence the species composition. This study aimed to observe plant composition, diversity, vegetation structure, and microclimate in coffee agroforestry systems and the physiological conditions of coffee. The experimental design was based on purposive sampling. A total of 100 nested plots were established in Glagaharjo and Balerante of Yogyakarta, each consisting of a dry-field and homegarden. Higher diversity and potential products were observed in dry-field agroforestry. There was no significant difference in microclimate between both systems. However, a significantly higher number of poles (p < 0.001) and trees (p < 0.001) in dry-field compared to homegarden contributed to lower light interception, higher humidity and temperature in dry-field, which could be associated with the higher physiological performance of coffee despite the non-significant difference between the systems (p > 0.05). Therefore, microclimate conditions under dry-fields were considered suitable for improving coffee growth performance.   Keywords: agroforestry, coffee, dry-field, eco-physiology, homegarden
