The mangrove ecosystem is one of the ecosystems that has high productivity in coastal and marine areas, especially in supporting the productivity of fishery resources. This is due to the function of the mangrove ecosystem as ecological and socio-economic. Therefore, to determine the high level of mangrove utilization in the coastal area of Siak Regency, an economic assessment of mangrove ecosystem services is necessary. This research aimed to study quantified mangrove ecosystem services in Siak Regency, Indonesia. Methods for data collection included field survey and interview, performed between July - August 2020. The economic value assessment comprised valuation on following service groups, i.e. supporting, provisioning, regulating and cultural services. The results showed that the economic value obtained from all studied services reached IDR 29,180,852,208 per year, IDR 24,747,680,000 per year, IDR 90,291,590,933 per year and IDR 9,245,925,366 per year, respectively. In conclusion, a total amount of economic value for mangrove ecosystem services in Sungai Apit District, Siak Regency was IDR 153,466,048,507,014 per year, which was equivalent to IDR 300,090,044,0 per hectare per year.
Coastal ecosystems on small islands have a large enough pressure to be inversely proportional to a large island due to various resource capabilities and limited supporting factors. Mangrove is one of the ecosystems on the coast of a small island that is susceptible to disturbance because it is close to human activities. This study aimed to determine the mangrove ecosystem management strategy on the coast of the Siak Regency. The research was conducted from July to August 2020 using survey and interview methods. Data analysis used the Analytical Hierarchy Process to determine the mangrove management strategy. The results showed that community involvement is a priority for managing sustainable mangrove ecosystems with the assistance of the Government and NGOs. Management priority factors, namely ecology, while still paying attention to economic, social, institutional, and technological concerns.
Mangrove ecosystem is a very important resource for the continuity of community life in coastal areas. Mangrove ecosystem in the coastal area of downstream Rokan district has decreased mangrove area because it is used as a pond area to reduce the production of mangrove litter as an ecological function that can be a carrying capacity of coastal capture fisheries. However, the use of coastal areas as pond areas provides economic benefits for aquaculture. This study aims to calculate the economic value of the Rokan Hilir Coastal mangrove ecosystem. This research was conducted in March-April 2019 in the survey method. Analysis to calculate the total economic value of the mangrove ecosystem is NET=ML+MTL+MP. The results showed the total economic benefit value of Rokan Hilir mangrove forest reached IDR 98.697.950.594 / year was a direct benefit value of IDR 701,425,106 / year, indirect benefits were obtained at IDR 94,606,056,000 / year, and the optional benefits reached IDR 3,512,126,520 / year. Mangrove ecosystems are ecosystems that provide many benefits to the Rokan Hilir Coastal community, so this ecosystem is highly expected to be sustainable.
