The Effectiveness of Policy Implementation of Sultan Syarif Hasyim Forest Park in Riau Province
Get PDFSince it was established as the Sultan Syarif Hasyim Forest Park in 1999, the implementation of policies management has not been effective due to increase of land tenure issue which has caused deforestation to become oil palm planation. The objective of this study was to formulate a strategy to increase the effectiveness of SSH Forest Park policies management. The SSH Forest Park policy management incapability of facts and implementation were influenced by high political and economic interests, participation and low level of community empowerment, human resources competencies and the low responsiveness of target groups. Those are due to the ineffectiveness of the policy content and policy environment implementation so to improve the implementation of the policy the government needs to streamline the contents of the policy and policy environment implementation. This also needs to be supported by reforms and governance arrangements to address policy gaps and implementation in the field such as strengthening and optimizing protection, agroforestry and ecotourism partnerships, zoning integration, improving communication for targeted groups in terms of implementation effectiveness of SSH management policies.

Conservation activities in GTPNTP have not been maximized, so needs to support by various stakeholders. This study aims to determine the level of participation of business actors in conservation activities in GTPNTP by studying economic benefits obtained by business actors from tourism activities through their willingness to contribute for conservation activities and their willingness to pay for conservation funds. The methods used were observation, quetionnaire, interview, and literature study. Respondent amount of 58 business actors using stratified random sampling technique. The results showed that in general, business actors get economic benefits from tourism revenues with a high contribution to the share (78,59%) and very high to the covering (120,46%). Most of the participation levels of business actors included in the very low category by 88,33% and the low category by 11,67%. In general, business actors have contributed to conservation activities in GTPNTP and 60% are willing to pay for conservation funds. This study shows that the willingness of business actors to contribute for conservation activities is quite high.

Nepenthes of Kerangas Forest of Tuing towards Insect
Get PDFKerangas forest, is a distinct vegetation around the tropics. It has a highly acidic soils and low nutrition contents. This condition lead to a uniqueness of its community member, as shown by Nepenthes spp. Nepenthes spp. are carnivorous plants which use insect as their nitrogen source. This research aimed to predict the role of Nepenthes spp. of kerangas forest towards insect through insect composition in the pitchers of Nepenthes spp.. This was a descriptive qualitative research. Research was conducted during May, 2018 in kerangas forest of Tuing, Bangka. Eight 10m x 10m plots were placed by purposive sampling. Results showed that there were 266 insects found in 23 Nepenthes spp. pitchers, identified as Ordo Coleoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera, and Orthoptera. There was no difference between composition of aerial and terrestrial pitcher. Insects found grouped as beneficial insect, pollinator, and others. Alive Culicidae larvae was the most abundant insect found within its’ pitchers. It showed the Nepenthes spp. role in kerangas forest as a potential mini-habitat for aquatic larvae. Nevertheless, further study is needed to prove regarding temporal variation in liquid composition in Nepenthes spp. pitcher. Keywords: insect, kerangas, Nepenthes spp., rol

Peatlands Rehabilitation through Species Enrichment on Post-fire Oil Palm Plantation Area
Get PDFForest fires and land conversion to oil palm plantations are one of the major threats that caused dangerous impacts on the existence of peatlands in Indonesia. Rehabilitation by plant type enrichment method is an effort that can be developed to restore the ecological and hydrological functions of degraded peatlands. This study aimed to analyze biophysical conditions (soil characteristics), analyze the growth response of plant species against the combination of planting types; analyze the choice of planting combinations that are in accordance with the physical conditions of the field and the needs of local communities. This study was designed by varying the diversity of tree species or combination of planting. The research plot consists of three size area (5m x 5m, 10m x 10m, and 20m x 20m). The species that used in this study consists of Shorea balangeran, Durio zibethinus, Archidendron pauciflorum, Parkia speciosa, Coffea liberica and Areca pinanga. The results showed that the research plot has soil characteristic from mesotropic fertility categories (moderate fertility) to eutophic (fertile), while the pH between 3.2 – 3.5 (very acidic). The growth of plant species at the age of five months has growth rate differentiation both height and diameter in each combination of planting. The height growth of Shorea balangeran species the highest which average of 35.16 cm while the diameter growth of Areca pinanga is 8.13 mm. The best combination of planting is a combination of six species wich consists Shorea balangeran, Durio zibethinus, Archidendron pauciflorum, Parkia speciosa, Coffea liberica and Areca pinanga.

Effectiveness Model of the Nature Tourism Based Community Forest Program Implementation in Bangka Tengah District
Get PDFNature tourism-based community forest (NTCF) is one form of community forest utilization in Bangka Tengah District. In its implementation, the effectiveness of this program is relatively different among community forest groups. This difference of effectiveness level could be influenced by various factors. Therefore, identification of these factors needs to be taken into consideration in making decisions to improve the effectiveness of the intended program. This study aims to identify the influencing factors and efforts to improve the effectiveness of NTCF implementation. The method used is the structural equation modeling and qualitative analysis. The results of the study showed that the factors that influence the effectiveness of the implementation are the attitude of the government, attitudes of community leaders, forestry extension human resources, attitudes of non-governmental organizations and the level of education of the community. For these reasons, the efforts should be conducted to achieve the effectiveness of the NTCF are to increase the support of community leaders, NGOs, and the government, increase the capacity of human resources for forestry instructors and provide education and training for the groups with relatively low levels of education.

Leaf Morphology Traits of Shorea spp in Ex-Situ KHDTK Haurbentes
Get PDFShorea is a genus of the Dipterocarpaceae family which shows high economic and ecological values. Currently, market demand for wood is still met from natural forests that are degrading due to over exploitation. The degraded forests are included in the rehabilitation program that require significant number of planting stocks, mainly from seedlings or wildlings. Correct species identification of planting stocks, particularly wildlings, is an important first step in planting activities and it is relevant with Shorea spp planting stocks due to leaf morphology traits. This study was aimed to examine the traits of leaf morphology of four Shorea species for easy field identification. Samples were taken from five trees for each species. Morphological trait identification was conducted by leaf observation and measurement. The results showed that all four species had the same apex shape. Six of the twelve morphological characteristic of the variable character can influence the morphological characteristics of the leaves, namely the roving leaf, leaf area, leaf length, aspect ratio, form factorand perimeter ratio of diameter. S. leprosula is similar to S. parvifolia, while S. ovalis is similar to S. guiso. Shorea leaf character S. parvifolia differentiated from S. leprosula, while Shorea ovalis similar to Shorea guiso. The LP variable (length from the base of the leaf to the widest point of the leaf) is a variable that can be used as aleaf morphological characteristic of the four Shorea which are compared because each one has a different value. S. ovalis has the highest LP value, followed by S. guiso and S. leprosula, while S. parvifolia has the lowest LP value. Keywords: apex shape, identification, leaf morphology traits, Shore
