Mangroves are an important ecosystem that provides valuable social, economic, and environmental services. Indonesia has placed mangroves on its national priority agenda in an important effort to sustainably manage this ecosystem and achieve national climate commitments. However, mangrove management is faced with complex challenges encompassing social, ecological, and economic issues. In order to achieve the government’s commitments and targets regarding mangrove restoration and conservation, an in-depth study on and critical review of mangrove management in Indonesia was conducted herein. This work aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and strategic recommendations for sustainable mangrove management in Indonesia. SWOT analysis was carried out to understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats related to mangrove management in Indonesia. To address these gaps, we reviewed the existing policies, current rehabilitation practices, environmental challenges, and research and technology implementations in the field. We found that strategies on mangrove ecosystem protection, such as improving the function and value of mangrove forests, integrating mangrove ecosystem management, strengthening political commitments and law enforcement, involving all stakeholders (especially coastal communities), and advancing research and innovations, are crucial for sustainable mangrove management and to support the national blue carbon agenda.
Abstract. Digital technology is indeed close and makes it easier for humans. In the reality of people's lives, the negative effects are more pronounced than the positive effects. We find tangible evidence such as bullying in the comments column on social media, attacking each other between groups or individuals, even many who have been entangled in legal cases due to expressing opinions and ending up reporting. This can be avoided if we have digital literacy skills. West Java Province is an area with the largest internet users and the largest contribution to internet penetration in Indonesia. However, the level of digital literacy is still in the medium category. Currently, the West Java Provincial Government and West Bandung Regency Government are still struggling with the literacy program and have not followed up on the digital literacy program. This study aims to determine the level of digital literacy which is then expected to be taken into consideration by various parties to conduct counseling in various forms. As a generation that has been close to technology since birth, the digital native generation will be the generation that will play a very important role in the progress of a region. This research is expected to describe the digital literacy ability of digital natives generation using quantitative descriptive methods in terms of 10 digital literacy competency indices from Japelidi namely, access, selection, understanding, analysis, verification, evaluation, distribution, production, participation and collaboration. The results of the data will describe the level of digital literacy competence of the digital natives generation in West Bandung Regency. Abstrak. Teknologi digital saat ini memang dekat dan mempermudah manusia. Namun efek negatif lebih banyak terasa dibanding efek positif, seperti halnya kita sering temukan perundungan di kolom komentar sosial media, saling serang antar kelompok atau individu, bahkan banyak yang terjerat kasus hukum akibat menyampaikan opini dan berujung pelaporan. Hal tersebut dapat dihindari jika kita memiliki kemampuan literasi digital. Provinsi Jawa Barat merupakan wilayah dengan pengguna internet dan kontribusi penetrasi internet paling besar di Indonesia. Namun tingkat literasi digital masih berada di kategori sedang. Saat ini Pemprov Jabar dan Pemkab Bandung Barat masih berkutat pada program literasi baca tulis dan belum ditindaklanjuti ke program literasi digital. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat literasi digital untuk kemudian diharapkan bisa dijadikan pertimbangan oleh berbagai pihak untuk mengadakan penyuluhan dalam berbagai macam bentuk. Sebagai generasi yang sejak lahir dekat dengan teknologi, generasi digital natives menjadi generasi yang akan sangat berperan dalam kemajuan suatu wilayah. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menggambarkan literasi digital generasi digital natives dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif ditinjau dari 10 indeks kompetensi literasi digital dari Japelidi yakni, akses, seleksi, pemahaman, analisis, verifikasi, evaluasi, distribusi, produksi, partisipasi dan kolaborasi. Hasil data akan menggambarkan tingkat kompetensi literasi digital generasi digital natives di Kabupaten Bandung Barat.
AbstrakPerkembangan ekonomi yang semakin cepat menyebabkan persaingan bisnis yang semakin ketat. Apalagi dengan adanya perkembangan teknologi yang semakin canggih, perusahaan-perusahaan tersebut berlomba-lomba dalam memanfaatkan teknologi untuk meningkatkan keunggulan kompetitif dan efisiensi kinerja perusahaan mereka dibandingkan pesaingnya. Salah satu investasi teknologi informasi yang populer saat ini adalah sistem Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) yaitu paket aplikasi yang menawarkan "best practice" dalam menjalankan bisnis dengan menggunakan satu basis data yang dapat diakses oleh semua divisi dalam perusahaan. Terdapat banyak keuntungan yang dapat dirasakan oleh perusahaan dengan mengimplementasi sistem ERP, seperti mengurangi biaya produksi, meningkatkan integrasi data, dan mengurangi level inventori. Namun, sebagian besar implementasi sistem ERP yang telah dilakukan oleh beberapa perusahaan mengalami kegagalan. Salah satu faktor yang menyebabkan kegagalan ini adalah adanya resistensi pengguna terhadap perubahan. Resistensi dari pengguna ini juga menyebabkan perusahaan tidak dapat memaksimalkan keuntungan dari implementasi sistem ERP. Oleh karena itu, paper ini akan membahas mengenai faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi penerimaan pengguna dalam menggunakan sistem ERP. Faktor-faktor penerimaan ini didasarkan pada model penerimaan pengguna yang sudah ada pada penelitian sebelumnya yaitu model Unified Theory of Acceptance and Usage of Technology (UTAUT). Kata Kunci: ERP, model penerimaan pengguna, UTAUT, resistensi pengguna AbstractAn increasingly rapid economic development led to the increasingly stringent business competition. Especially with the development of increasingly sophisticated technology, these companies are competing in utilizing technology to enhance competitive advantage and efficiency of their company's performance than its competitors. One of the investment in information technology that is popular today is the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, is an application package that offers best practice of doing business by using a single database that is accessible by all divisions within the company. There are many advantages that can be felt by companies to implement ERP systems, such as reducing production costs, improve data integration, and reduce inventory levels. However, most implementations of ERP systems that have been done by some companies to fail. One of the factors that caused this failure is the presence of user resistance to change. Resistance from users has also led the company can not maximize the benefits of ERP system implementation. Therefore, this paper will discuss the factors affecting user acceptance of ERP systems in use. Acceptance factors are based on the user acceptance model that already exists in previous studies that model the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Usage of Technology (UTAUT).
Indonesia is a tropical country with an area of rain forests around 128 million ha. Forests have economic, social and environmental functions, therefore those functions must be sustained. Seeds are a very important part for maintaining the sustainability of forest functions, by providing good quality of seeds and seedlings. Nearly 70% of the seeds of forest plants in Indonesia are recalcitrant and intermediate, dominated by species of Dipterocarpaceae, Myrtaceae, Araucariaceae, and Verbenaceae. In general, the characteristics of the seeds can be divided into 3 groups based on their sensitivity of drying and storability, namely orthodox, recalcitrant and intermediates. The viability of orthodox seeds can be maintained for long storage periods in low temperatures, whereas recalcitrant seeds are difficult to store for long periods and loseitsviability in a short time. Intermediate seeds are in between of the two characters, that the viability can be kept for a longer time (generally less than 1 year) than recalcitrant seeds. The main problems for recalcitrant and intermediate seeds are their short life time and for some species, the flowering and fruiting periods do not occur every year, especially for the species of Dipterocarpacae. These problems makedifficult to get large quantities of high-quality seeds. Therefore, seed handling techniques of recalcitrant and intermediates seeds are urgently needed. A proper seed handling is the key to maintain the physical, physiological and genetic quality of seeds which should be carried out by involving several activities including techniques of seed production, seed testing, seed storage, and nursery technique.
The accumulation of mismanaged plastic waste in the environment is a serious problem in Indonesia and become a global growing concern. Implementation of mitigation policies to reduce the use of plastics is very urgent, including in reforestation and land rehabilitation programs revealed by many plastics (polybags) used in seedling production for forest planting. Reducing the plastic waste in the planted forest areas can apply some alternative methods that were applied in several regions, such as direct seeding, bare-root seedling and bio-pot seedling. In this paper, application of several methods would be assessed as alternative methods for reforestation and land rehabilitation. Bio-pot seedlings had the highest growth performances in nursery and field test for several tree species, followed by polybag seedling, and direct seeding using seed briquette. However, seedling grown from direct seeding using seed briquette tended to have better root formation, especially in tap root length, tap root biomass and bellow-ground biomass. Direct seeding was estimated twice lower compared to transplanting using polybag or bio-pot seedlings. Furthermore, use of bio-pot seedlings was more effective in rapidly growth and establishing canopy. Direct seeding using seed briquette was a promising alternative technique for land rehabilitation and reforestation, especially for remote areas.
Deteriorated seeds can be improved by invigoration treatment, including gamma-ray irradiation by . The purpose of this study was to determine the proper dose of gamma-ray irradiation ( 60 Co) to increase the decreased vigor of suren (Toona sureni (Blume) Merr.) seeds. This study uses a factorial completely randomized design (CRD) with aging and irradiation as the treatments. Aging factors consisted of 0, 2, and 4 days. Irradiation factor consisted of 7 levels, namely 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 100 Gy, repeated four times. The parameters observed were the electrical conductivity, germination percentage, germination speed, and seedling height. The results showed that Seed aging treatment significantly affected Suren seed germination with 75% (2 days aging) and 56% (4 days aging) germination. The 40 Gy dose of gamma-ray irradiation could increase germination percentage and germination speed of low suren seed vigor increasing 51.42% and 60.21%, respectively. Simultaneously, the cell membrane damage of stored suren increased with gamma-ray irradiation treatment of more than 40 Gy based on electrical conductivity. In seeds with high germination, such as seeds without aging and seed aging for two days with a germination percentage of 80% and 75%, respectively, the invigoration treatment was not effective. Invigoration treatment was effective in increasing the deteriorated or low viability and vigor of the suren seeds.
