Abstract

Promoting rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) farming responses to the challenges in food security and agricultural sustainability. The purpose of this study is to describe the management practices of emerging rabbit farmers/producers in rural areas in relation to their housing practices, feeding, breeding, and healthand disease management. Also, it identifies the benefit and challenges of rabbitfarming. Furthermore, a framework was developed in capacitating the rabbitfarmers/producers to make rabbit farming ventures a sustainable livelihood in rural areas. Descriptive research was utilized; 33 rabbit farmers are the respondents of this study; a snowball sampling technique was used to identify the respondent. In- depth semi-structured interviews and observation were used in gathering the data. Findings revealed that farmers invest in galvanized wire cages but some use local materials like bamboo and used wood however they need to improve their housing design even its backyard rabbit raising. The majority uses a combination of rabbit pellets & forages that are locally available for feeding the rabbit. Also, most of them acquire their rabbit breed from local rabbit breeders where the challenge to the farmers is the quality and the inbreeding. Skin disease and diarrhea are common diseases in rabbits andfarmers have knowledge of identifying the symptoms and also curing them. Themajor benefit of rabbit production it gives an additional source of income forrabbit farmers/producers while the major challenges are inadequate/limited knowledge of rabbit production and an unreliable market for rabbit breeds and meat.

Abstract

Macroalgae are the main competitors for coral reefs in fighting for aquatic ecological space in coral reef ecosystems. The purpose of this research; Knowing the condition of the aquatic environment, the abundance and cover of macroalgae, and the potential of macroalgae for indicators of coral reef management in the coastal waters of Katapang Village. Data on the physical condition of the waters were measured in situ while macroalgae data for each research station were obtained using the LIT (Line Intercept Transect Method). Macroalgae taxa were identified using an identification guide book from FAO (1998). The distribution of each type of macroalgae was mapped spatially based on the distribution conditions of the macroalgae at each study station. The results showed that the condition of the waters of the coral reef ecosystem in Katapang Village was supportive for the growth of macroalgae. The macroalgae found came from 3 orders, 4 families, 5 genera and 8 species. The results also indicate that the abundance and cover of macroalgae determines the shift in dominance in reef ecosystems so that these two factors can be used as indicators of coral reef management.

Abstract

District Labuhanbatu selatan has natural/artificial inland waters for various usages. For example, freshwater has supported various activities such as agriculture, plantations, inland fisheries, and ecotourism. This study reports the presence of invasive mollusk in freshwater (Melanoides tuberculata) and terrestrial (Achatina fulica) habitats. This study is the first report regarding the spatial distribution of the three invasive mollusk species in the inland waters of District Labuhanbatu selatan. These invasive mollusks species are a severe threat to the preservation of native species and human health because they are an intermediate host for several types of parasites, such as the trematode group. The spreading and rapid development of these invasive mollusks is caused by their reproductive ability and resistance to poor environmental quality and airborne dispersal factors by birds, water flow, and commercial activities. This invasive species can directly cause huge economic losses as they become a pest inagricultural activities, plantations, and freshwater fisheries (aquaculture). They also can transmit pathogens and displacement of native species. Therefore, it is recommended to have a preventive effort to tackle the expansion of in District Labuhanbatu selatan.

Abstract

Communities around the forest need to be encouraged in the development of forestry plants by the community either independently or with the assistance—of the government so that environmental sustainability can be adequately controlled. The development system carried out by the community, in general, is a hybrid system or better known as the agroforestry system. This study aims to identify sectors related to efforts to develop forestry plants.airly well-established economic condition. Development of forestry plants with this system . However, few people also develop a monoculture system, especially those with large enough land and who do not depend on the ground. Building role synergy between sectors supporting the development of forestry plantations is urgently needed to increase the quantity and quality of raw materials to meet the needs of the timber industry, both locally and nationally. Three critical sectors that must synergize in supporting the development of forestry plantations by the community are research and educational institutions, the government, and the market (industry). These three sectors are expected to be able to build attractive incentives for the community so that the community continues to preserve timber plants. Research and educational institutions can provide information and technology related to efforts to increase forestry plant production. Both information and technology from social, economic, and silvicultural or cultivation aspects. Information and technology produced by these research and educational institutions can be used as input and consideration for the government in formulating programs and policies related to developing timber plantations on private land. Through the formulation of its policies and work programs, the government is expected to initiate, facilitate and assist the community in developing forestry plants. Furthermore, the market sector, especially the timber industry, must be encouraged to create a conducive post-harvest climate so that the community continues to be motivated to increase the production of raw wood materials.
