Abstract

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has emerged as a sustainable alternative to conventional pest control methods, emphasizing the integration of biological, cultural, mechanical, and chemical approaches. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of IPM research using data exclusively from the Scopus database and analyzed through VOSviewer. The findings reveal a significant increase in IPM-related publications over the past two decades, indicating growing global interest in sustainable pest management. Key research themes identified include pesticide reduction, biological control, policy frameworks, and technological advancements such as artificial intelligence for pest monitoring. The study also highlights the dominance of developed countries, particularly the United States, United Kingdom, and China, in IPM research, while collaboration between developed and developing nations remains limited. Major challenges to IPM adoption include economic constraints, lack of technical knowledge, and regulatory barriers. Future research should focus on enhancing global collaboration, improving accessibility to biopesticides and digital technologies, and strengthening farmer education and policy support. This study provides valuable insights into the evolution of IPM research and its role in promoting sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

This study explores the role of mycelium-based biomaterials in promoting environmentally friendly packaging and product design in Indonesia. Using a qualitative methodology, data were gathered through interviews with three key informants: a material scientist, a packaging industry expert, and a sustainable design entrepreneur. Thematic analysis conducted with NVIVO software revealed four major findings: (1) the environmental benefits of mycelium, including biodegradability and low energy production requirements; (2) challenges such as scalability, high costs, and limited awareness; (3) diverse applications in packaging and product design, including luxury markets; and (4) the critical role of government policy and stakeholder collaboration in driving adoption. These findings highlight the potential of mycelium-based biomaterials to contribute to Indonesia's sustainability goals by reducing plastic waste and fostering innovative eco-friendly solutions. However, addressing scalability and cost issues requires policy interventions and cross-sector collaboration.

Abstract

This study explores the Community-Based Forest Management (CBFM) strategy as a means to maintain biodiversity in Papua, Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach, data were gathered through interviews with five key informants, including community leaders, local government officials, conservation NGO representatives, and researchers. Data analysis was conducted using NVivo software. The findings reveal that community participation, underpinned by indigenous practices, plays a critical role in forest conservation and biodiversity preservation. However, challenges such as limited resources, ambiguous land tenure systems, and external pressures hinder the effectiveness of these strategies. The integration of modern technology, such as GIS, was identified as a potential enhancer of CBFM outcomes, though capacity-building remains essential. This study underscores the importance of collaborative approaches, policy reforms, and capacity development in strengthening community-based conservation initiatives.

Abstract

The increasing urgency to mitigate climate change has intensified the need for effective carbon trading mechanisms, particularly under the REDD+ scheme. This study explores the potential of integrating satellite technology, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to develop a sustainable carbon trade model tailored to Indonesia’s unique environmental and policy landscape. The research focuses on deforestation hotspots in Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Papua, leveraging high-resolution satellite imagery and machine learning algorithms for precise carbon stock estimation. Results indicate significant deforestation trends, with an average annual loss of 1.2% of forest cover and 320 million metric tons of carbon over the past decade. AI-powered predictive models achieved 92% accuracy in identifying deforestation hotspots and estimating carbon stocks, underscoring their utility in enhancing Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) systems. Policy analysis highlights critical gaps in enforcement and community participation. This study proposes a scalable and transparent carbon trade model that aligns with REDD+ objectives, fostering equitable and sustainable climate solutions for Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for measuring the impact of carbon trading initiatives on East Java's protected forests. The research integrates satellite imagery, AI-driven land-use classification, and carbon stock analysis to evaluate the environmental, economic, and social outcomes of these programs. Key findings indicate a significant reduction in deforestation and an increase in carbon sequestration, driven by targeted reforestation efforts and financial incentives from carbon trading. Socioeconomic benefits, including enhanced community livelihoods and reduced reliance on unsustainable practices, further underscore the program's success. However, challenges such as leakage effects and data inconsistencies highlight areas requiring improvement. The study concludes that advanced technologies, when effectively integrated, offer transformative potential for sustainable forest management and carbon trading efficacy in Indonesia.
