Pengelolaan Wilayah Gambut Melalui Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa Pesisir Di Kawasan Hidrologis Gambut Sungai Katingan Dan Sungai Mentaya Provinsi Kalimantan Tengah

Abstract

ABSTRAKArea gambut yang ada di wilayah pesisir memiliki peran ekologis yang penting sebagai penyimpan karbon, penyimpan air, konservasi biodiversitas dan aktivitas ekonomi masyarakat. Pengelolaan wilayah gambut dilakukan dengan memperhatikan keseimbangan faktor sosial, ekonomi dan juga lingkungan fisik. Makalah ini memaparkan usaha pengelolaan wilayah gambut di kawasan hidrologis gambut Sungai Katingan -Sungai Mentaya seluas 254.522 hektar yang ada di Provinsi Kalimantan Tengah. Metode kuantitatif-kualitatif melalui teknik GIS dan survey lapangan dilakukan untuk mendapat parameter terkait pengelolaan lahan gambut di lokasi studi. Upaya restorasi yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah ada tiga jenis yaitu melakukan rewetting di areal gambut yang berkanal dan pernah terjadi kebakaran, revegetasi bagi wilayah gambut yang tutupan vegetasinya sudah < 25% dan pembentukan desa-desa peduli gambut yang dilakukan melalui suatu pendekatan sosial pada masyarakat sekitar yang beraktivitas sehari-hari di kawasan gambut tersebut.Kata kunci: Pengelolaan wilayah gambut, restorasi gambut pesisir, pemberdayaan masyarakat, Kalimantan Tengah.
