“…These problems can be overcome by implementing intensive and extensive livestock-rearing systems that combine crops with livestock on plantations [31], [32]. In general, so that the community is not disturbed by the livestock rearing system (X2.4), an intensive system is a solution so as not to interfere with the activities of road users (66%).…”

Muna Regency is a development area for Bali cattle and is an activity familiar to the people of Muna Regency. The livestock business has been carried out for generations but is still considered a side business managed traditionally. Bali cattle development potential in this area is still large because a fairly wide topography supports it. The study aimed to determine the maintenance system for Bali cattle farming in Muna Regency by examining the socio-economic impacts of the Bali cattle farming business using a survey method, and location determination was carried out deliberately. The data used in this research are primary data and secondary data obtained from breeders, sub-district governments, and related agencies. The data obtained were then analyzed descriptively using a Likert scale. The results showed that the maintenance system for Bali cattle farming applies two maintenance systems, namely semi-intensive and extensive. The maintenance pattern aims to produce seeds and, of course, have job opportunities that impact the social and economic community.

“…This fact is relevant to the opinion of Permatasari et al (2024) that increasing ambient temperatures due to climate change have significantly impacted human physical and mental health and safety. For example, when the sun shines fully, the air conditions under shady trees cannot penetrate the canopy, so the canopy feels more shady, cool, humid, and comfortable (Sandiah et al 2022;Wati and Fatkhuroyan 2017). Vegetation in the form of trees functions as climate control for environmental comfort because the tree canopy absorbs heat from the sun's rays so that it lowers air temperature, increases RH, and the overall microclimate is cool (Findlater et al 2022;Kandari et al 2021).…”

Halu Oleo University (UHO) Botanical Garden is one of the green open spaces that contribute to maintaining climate stability and environmental comfort in Kendari City, along with the high land use change due to increased population and city progress. The study aimed to determine the effect of land cover types on microclimate in UHO Botanical Garden and its surroundings. The research was conducted from June 2021 to January 2022. The research was conducted on three types of vegetation land cover. The variables measured were microclimate, including light intensity, temperature, relative humidity, and temperature humidity index. Measurements were conducted in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The method used was descriptive quantitative and statistical analysis using the analysis of variance and the least significant difference (LSD) test. The results showed that the microclimatic conditions of UHO Botanical Garden in tree-dominant land cover are more comfortable and significantly different from grass-dominant and settlement-dominant, but they are not significantly different between grass-dominant and settlement-dominant. This fact indicates the importance of the conservation of tree vegetation and the need for supervision so that there is no diversion of functions into settlements to maintain the preservation and sustainability of UHO Botanical Garden as one of the green open spaces that control climate stability and environmental comfort in Kendari City. Keywords: botanical garden, microclimate, settlement, temperature humidity index, vegetation

“…This carrying capacity is lower than as reported by Daru et al (2014) which can accommodate 1.44 AU ha -1 year -1 at a 3-year-old plantation and 0.71 AU ha -1 year -1 at a 7-year-old plantation. Another study reported that 7-year-old oil palm plantations could accommodate 1.35 AU ha -1 year -1 (Sandiah et al 2022) and without herbicide spraying treatment, 10-year-palm oil plantations could accommodate 0.51 AU ha -1 year -1 , while oil palm plantations treated by herbicide spraying can accommodate 0.42 AU ha -1 year -1 (Endrawati et al 2019). Not all oil palm plantations have forage plants consumable by livestock.…”

Abstract. Daru TP, Sunaryo W, Pagoray H, Suhardi, Mayulu H, Ibrahim, Safitri A. 2023. Diversity, nutrient contents and production of forage plants in an integrated cattle livestock-oil palm plantation in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 24: 1981-1989. The integration of cattle livestock rearing into oil palm plantations delivers various benefits. The livestock management can reduce the weeds and add organic nutrients to the plantations, while the understorey vegetation grow under the oil palm trees can be used as forage for the livestock. Several studies reported that the age of oil palm plantations affects forage production in integrated cattle livestock palm oil plantations. From an ecological standpoint, the diversity of plant species and the level of forage production varies based on the age of the oil palm trees. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the diversity, composition, nutrient contents, forage production and carrying capacity of understorey vegetation in oil palm plantations at different ages of 3, 7, and 10 years in Paser District, East Kalimantan Province, Indonesia. A total of 29 plant species from 13 families were found under oil palm plantations, of which 14 species (48.27%) are palatable to cattle livestock. The results showed that the diversity of plant species decreased along with the increasing age of oil palm trees, but they were able to meet the needs of livestock. In the 3, 7, and 10-year-old plantations, the diversity index (H') was 1.491, 1.634, and 2.099, with evenness index (E) of 0.538, 0.589 and 0.757; as well as the dominance index of 0.15, 0.30, and 0.18, respectively. Narrow-leaved forage plant species dominated the understorey vegetation and increased along with the age of oil palm plantations due to the ability to adapt to environmental conditions. The low forage production under the different ages of oil palm plantations caused a low carrying capacity to support livestock feed, namely 0.87, 0.56, and 0.36 Animal Unit (AU) ha-1 per year in the 3, 7, and 10-year-old plantations. Nonetheless, Crude Protein (CP) and total digestible nutrients can meet the basic life needs of livestock. The results of this study imply that oil palm plantations in Paser District can be applied as livestock rearing with different carrying capacities based on the different ages of oil palm plantations.
