The island of Bali has several traditional Aga villages that survive under the pressures of an intense tourist industry and agricultural changes. In order to understand possible impacts on traditional ethnobotanical knowledge (TEK) in Bali, we interviewed local people living in 13 traditional villages regarding the number of known plants and their uses. We analyzed socioeconomic factors influencing change of such knowledge at both individual (informant) and community (village) level. We identified a total of 149 food and nutraceutical plants being used in the study area. Neither gender, occupation, income, nor level of formal education had a significant effect on TEK. However, informant’s age and village status were found to play an important role in the retention of TEK at an individual level. At the village level, the use of Internet/smart phones was an important predictor of cultural erosion
We report the first ethnobotanical study of wild and semi-wild food plants used by the inhabitants of the villages of Bali. Considering the urgent need to avoid the loss of this traditional knowledge, fifty informants from thirteen ‘Bali Aga’ villages across four districts were selected for our field investigation. Ethnobotanical data was collected through different interview methods (direct observation, semi-structured interviews, key informant interviews, individual discussions, focus group discussions and questionnaires). The 86 recorded species belonging to 41 families and 68 genera, include Angiosperms (82), and Pteridophytes (4), are categorized as wild (33) and semi-wild (53), of which 63.64% are native to Malesian, Indian, and Indochinese. Wild and semi-wild edible plants play an important role in providing the Balinese with various essential nutrients. Fourteen species (16.28%) are also used medicinally. In recent years, with the growth of the tourist industry, the wild habitats of edible plants have been severely impacted. Traditional knowledge related to wild and semi-wild edible plants is also endangered. Therefore, the management of these resources and the preservation of biodiversity along with indigenous knowledge are of primary importance
ABSTRAK. Begonia tuberosa Lmk. merupakan salah satu jenis tanaman hias yang mempunyai nilai estetika dan ekonomi tinggi. Permasalahan yang dialami dalam perbanyakan tanaman ini adalah sulitnya setek berakar, setek cepat busuk, dan terbatasnya ketersediaan bibit di pasaran. Penelitian merupakan percobaan pot yang dilakukan di dalam Rumah Kaca Balai Konservasi Tumbuhan Kebun Raya Eka Karya Bali -LIPI pada ketinggian tempat 1.250 m dpl. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh zat pengatur tumbuh tanaman (Rootone-F) dan panjang setek pucuk pada pertumbuhan Begonia tuberosa Lmk. Rancangan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah rancangan acak kelompok faktorial dengan tiga ulangan. Faktor pertama adalah konsentrasi Rootone-F (0, 150, 300, dan 450 mg/l) dan faktor kedua adalah panjang setek pucuk (5; 7,5; dan 10 cm). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa interaksi antara konsentrasi Rootone-F dan panjang setek pucuk tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap semua variabel yang diukur. Jumlah akar terbanyak diperoleh pada panjang setek 10 cm rerata sebanyak 18,25 buah dan tidak berbeda nyata dengan panjang setek 5 dan 7,5 cm. Berat kering oven total tiga ulangan bibit tertinggi diperoleh pada konsentrasi optimum 300 mg/l adalah 1,36 g dengan persentase penambahan secara berturut-turut sebesar 227,14; 70,92; dan 72,22% bila dibandingkan dengan berat total kering oven tiga ulangan bibit pada konsentrasi Rootone-F 0,150 dan 450 mg/l masing-masing 0,42; 0,80; dan 0,79 g. Panjang setek pucuk 10 cm memberikan pertumbuhan bibit B. tuberosa Lmk. tertinggi yang ditunjukkan dengan berat total kering oven tertinggi sebesar 1,58 g, jika dibandingkan dengan panjang setek pucuk 5 cm dan 7,5 cm yaitu 0,36 g dan 0,83 g terjadi peningkatan secara berturut-turut sebesar 334,94% dan 90,10%. Pertumbuhan terbaik perbanyakan B. tuberosa Lmk. dengan setek batang diperoleh dengan panjang setek 10 cm dan diberikan penambahan konsentrasi Rootone-F 300 mg/l. Katakunci: Begonia tuberosa Lmk.; Panjang setek; Zat pengatur tumbuh ABSTRACT. Begonia tuberosa Lmk. is one of ornamental plants that have high economic value and aesthetics. The problems are difficulty of root growth, fast decay, and limited availability of seeds in the market. This study was conducted in pot experiments in the Green House of Eka Karya Bali Botanic Garden at altitude 1,250 m asl. This study aimed to determine the effect of Rootone-F concentrations and length of shoot cuttings on the growth of Begonia tuberosa Lmk. The design used in this study is factorial randomized block design with three replications. The first factor is the concentration Rootone-F (0, 150, 300, and 450 mg/l) and the second factor is the length of shoot cuttings (5, 7.5, and 10 cm). Results showed that the interaction between the concentration Rootone-F and length shoot cuttings did not significantly affect all measured variables. The highest number of roots was obtained on 10 cm cuttings length at average 18.25 and not significantly different from 5 and 7.5 cm cutting length. The highest oven ...
An Alphabetical List of Plant Species Cultivated in Bali Botanic Garden serves as a catalogue that provides a comprehensive list of plant species that are cultivated in Bali Botanic Garden. Species are listed alphabetically, followed by information regarding their locality. This catalogue contains the most recent information about the Gardens' plant collection, comprising of more than 2,000 species. This catalogue will be resourceful for botanists and researchers alike, as well as visitors of the Gardens.
Tigawasa is one of the famous traditional villages as a center of bamboo handicraft in Buleleng regency-Bali. As a center of bamboo handicraft its have been wrestled since centuries. Their peoples have done traditionally bamboo conservation surrounding their house and garden too. The marginal area, river flow area and stiff slope that are outskirts of village become to focus of bamboo conservation by their peoples, too. This research conducted at Tigawasa village in June 2003 by stripe and interview methods. Two kilometers stripe length by 50 meters width; follow the direction north south of the river was investigated. To know the utilization of kind of bamboo and their product conducted by interview to craftsman and community figure. The result of inventory knew about four genus consist of 19 species planted in this village. To know those bamboo species will be presented their key of determination. The genus of Gigantochloa and Schizostachyum to dominate of their species, and have many uses of it's, also. Not less than 54 kind of bamboos handicraft product was produced in this village. The diversity of bamboos handicraft product, develop according progress of the technology and demand of period. Many of new products composed and use of color or paint develop to produce varieties of fixed product. Two-kind of product that is traditional boxes ("sokasi") handicraft and woven bamboo ("bedeg") to become this village famous at Bali, even though in foreign countries Energetic development of bamboos home industry to come to decrease stock of raw materials. About two trucks supply from east Java regularly to anticipation of decrease local stock of raw materials every week.
