"Rafflesia spp. (Rafflesiaceae) have a strategic value from both scientific and conservation viewpoints. To date only very few attempts have succeeded in growing the species ex situ and the main protection measures have been by in situ conservation. More detailed studies are required to understand the relationships between Rafflesia spp. and their host plants in order to improve their management and conservation. Studies on the anatomy, in vitro culture and seed germination in connection with conservation have been conducted in the Bogor Botanic Gardens. Effort to transfer Rafflesia patma to an ex situ conservation area has produced some flowers. However, we encountered a bigger challenge to maintain the long term presence of R. patma in ex situ conservation, since a high number of individuals is required to make the viable population."

"ABSTRACTPaddy fields in Northeast Thailand are unusual in that they contain large trees. In recent years, however, in concert with major changes in the agricultural system of Northeast Thailand, including the shift from subsistence to cash crops, mechanization, use of chemical fertilizers, and increased reliance of rural people on manufactured consumer goods, the role of trees in paddy fields has also been changing, leading to a decline in tree densities. This study was conducted in Khok Kwang village, Khon Kaen Province, in order to examine factors influencing variations in density, canopy coverage, and origin of trees in paddy fields there. In recent years, the rate of tree cutting appears to have been increasing and the density of trees declining. This decline reflects many changes in agricultural practices in the village. Farmers now rely on chemical fertilizer rather than litter from the trees to maintain soil fertility. They no longer value any increase in rice yield during dry years in the parts of their helds that are close to the trees because they are now able to pump irrigation water to maintain productivity; and trees are seen as an impediment to the use of four wheel tractors, which have difficulty working efficiently in paddy helds with many trees. In addition, several farmers have begun to plant their paddy Iields with sugarcane, which is less shade tolerant than rice. The density of trees in paddy fields planted with sugarcane (5.7 trees/ha) is much lower than in helds where rice is cultivated (9.6 trees/ha). In upper paddies that are still planted with rice, the trees are retained because they provide valuable goods and services to the farmers and rice yields there are in any case low and unstable. This study illustrates at the micro level how changes in farmer goals, choice of crops, and production technology that are part of the agrarian transformation of Northeast Thailand are reshaping the rural landscape."

"Research on usable of Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park and Botanical Garden to develop the conservation education has been carried out, but the available information due to the package of conservation education using both of conservation areas is stilt lacking.The aim of this study is to measure and compare conservation education packages, which have conducted at Gunung Gede Pangrango and Bogor Botanical Garden. The compiling information from this study will be useful as a contribution to develop the program of conservation education as well as to increase the management of conservation area.The comparative study was conducted in two conservation area, the Gunung Gede Pangrango (representative for in situ conservation), and Bogor Botanical Garden (for ex situ conservation), using a questionnaire method, document analyzing, field observation, and measure the progress of the institutional development using matrix of the Institutional Development Framework ( IDF ). Correspondence is the key-person from institutions who responsible in organizing the conservation education program.The conclusion of this study was that the Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park is more diverse in having potential interpretation material compare to that of Bogor Botanical Garden, especially the available concepts of ecology and conservation in species and ecosystem level. In comparison, the Bogor. Botanical Garden has relatively more facilities on species interpretation. The conservation education program at both areas has limit goal, only covered the awareness and knowledge, and not completed with the education evaluation, which measured the impact of education on conservation for the participants. Covering the goal of the education, usable of flagship species and education evaluation might develop the quality of the program at both areas.Both of the institutions have limit facilities and skill to develop the package of the conservation education program, therefore they need cooperation with other institution as a partner. The study also identified that the Partners have a good contribution on developing the package of the Conservation education program as well as provide human resources. Some partners have provided the technical and facilities for educating, however none of the four NGO's which cooperate with the two institutions (Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park and Bogor Botanical Garden) in sustainability stage at institutional; development continuum. It seem that their institutional development progress will influence the existing packages for educating conservation program, which prepared at Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park and Bogor Botanical Garden."

"DKI Jakarta merupakan kota dengan jumlah penduduk paling banyak di Indonesia. Pertumbuhan penduduk yang terus terjadi mengakibatkan alih fungsi ruang terbuka hijau menjadi gedung bertingkat dan jalan layang bersamaan dengan peningkatan emisi gas rumah kaca dari konsumsi bahan bakar mineral. Dampaknya, muncul fenomena pulau bahang perkotaan di berbagai wilayah di DKI Jakarta. Sistem penghijauan vertikal dipilih sebagai upaya mitigasi dan reduksi fenomena tersebut, namun penerapannya belum optimal karena berbagai tantangan yang muncul terutama dari faktor biaya. Maka dari itu, penelitian ini dilakukan untuk merekomendasikan strategi peningkatan penerapan sistem penghijauan vertikal di DKI Jakarta dari segi biaya berdasarkan biaya siklus hidup. Penelitian dilaksanakan menggunakan metode studi kasus dengan instrumen berupa wawancara. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa siklus hidup sistem penghijauan vertikal di DKI Jakarta terdiri atas fase persiapan, konstruksi, serta operasi dan pemeliharaan. Ditemukan juga bahwa biaya siklus hidup sistem penghijauan vertikal di DKI Jakarta (Indonesia) lebih rendah dibandingkan biaya siklus hidupnya di Singapura maupun Genoa (Italia). Strategi yang direkomendasikan untuk menghemat biaya siklus hidup sistem penghijauan vertikal tersebut mencakup strategi penggunaan material, alternatif pemasok, seleksi tanaman, sistem irigasi, dan sumber air.

DKI Jakarta is the most populated city in Indonesia. Population growth that continues to occur has resulted in the conversion of green open spaces into multi-story buildings and flyovers along with an increase in greenhouse gas emissions from the consumption of mineral fuels. As a result, urban heat island phenomenon appeared in various areas in DKI Jakarta. Vertical greening system was chosen as an effort to mitigate and reduce the phenomenon, but its implementation has not been optimal due to various challenges, especially costs. Therefore, this research was conducted to recommend strategies to increase the implementation of vertical greening system in DKI Jakarta from a cost perspective using life cycle cost. The research was carried out by case study method using interviews as instruments. The results of this study indicated that the life cycle of the vertical greening system in DKI Jakarta consisted of the preparation, construction, as well as operation and maintenance phases. It was also found that the life cycle costs of vertical greening system in DKI Jakarta (Indonesia) are lower than those in Singapore and Genoa (Italy). The recommended strategies to economize life cycle costs of the vertical greening system include strategies for using materials, alternative suppliers, plant selection, irrigation systems, and water sources."

"Most members of family Rafflesiaceae are rare plants which found only in a restricted area in Southeast Asia. As a holoparasitic plant Rafflesia totally depends on the specific host plant in specific habitat. The rarity of Rafflesia caused the limited number of research of many biological aspects of this species. In this study, observations on the fruit and seed of R. patma and R. arnoldii were carried out in its habitat and laboratory. Figures and dimension of the seeds was recorded by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)."

"Cestrum aurantiacum Lindl. is an exotic species found in native remnant forest of GPNP which is located inside the Cibodas Botanic Garden (CBG). Risk assessment is an important tool to choose best decision for invasive plant management. Risk assessment analysis on C. aurantiacum in Cibodas Botanic Garden was conducted using Multi Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) method. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) used in the valuation process. Three sub-criteria used: minimizing the ecological impact, minimizing the management cost, and maximizing the public acceptance. Five management alternatives were used: do nothing (DN), eradication (E), containment (C), bio-control (BC) and harvesting (H). Harvesting (H) recommended as the best management decision for C. aurantiacumin at CBG remnant forest. This harvesting decision is not only creating environment/ ecosystem remediation but also as sources of fund in the management activity of the area."

"Konsep konservasi dalam penelitian sebelumnya tentang antropologi ekologi cenderung fokus pada upaya manusia untuk menjaga kelestarian lingkungan, dengan tujuan untuk alam kelestarian. Konservasi adalah solusi untuk degradasi lingkungan menurut perspektif antroposentris. Namun, program konservasi itu meminggirkan lokal masyarakat bukanlah solusi yang tepat. Konservasi semacam itu hanya bertahan dalam jangka pendek karena mereka dapat memicu konflik terjadi di komunitas lokal. Untukmengatasi masalah tersebut, dalam skripsi ini saya akan merekomendasikan penerapan perspektif multispesies untuk meninjau konsep konservasi yang mengisi kesenjangan dalam program konservasi sementara tidak membunuh masyarakat setempat. Multispecies etnografi adalah suatu pendekatan yang melihat alam tidak hanya sebagai alat hidup, tetapi juga sebagai a Pasangan yang harus diakui dan dipahami untuk membangun kehidupan yang harmonis antara manusia dan lingkungan alam. Penelitian ini mengamati masyarakat Kampung Laut, Segara Anakan, Cilcap, yang juga anggota Krida Wana Lestari, kelompok tani bakau lokal. Data dikumpulkan melalui peserta observasi dan wawancara mendalam. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anggota PT Krida Wana Lestari berinteraksi dengan lingkungan setiap saat untuk berkolaborasi alam dan pohon bakau. Berbagai jenis mangove yang ditanam di Segara Anakan adalah tumbuh dengan baik karena hubungan emosional antara petani dan petani bakau. Hubungan emosional tidak akan tumbuh tanpa interaksi. Ini sebabnya program konservasi yang melibatkan pemangku kepentingan lokal seperti Krida Wana Lestari terus melanjutkan dalam jangka panjang. Berdasarkan temuan, saya berpendapat bahwa konsep konservasi seharusnya tidak hanya dipahami melalui perspektif antroposentris. Faktanya, ada pemahaman emosional dan timbal balik antara lingkungan dan lokal pemangku kepentingan. Ini membuat program konservasi terus berkembang.

The concept of conservation in previous research on ecological anthropology tends to focus on human efforts to preserve the environment, with a view to nature conservation. Conservation is a solution for environmental degradation according to anthropocentric perspective. However, the conservation program that marginalizes local communities is not the right solution. Such conservation only lasts in the short term because they can trigger conflicts in the local community. For Overcoming this problem, in this thesis I will recommend the application of a multi-species perspective to review conservation concepts that fill gaps in conservation programs while not killing local people. Ethnographic multispecies is an approach that sees nature not only as a tool of life, but also as a partner that must be recognized and understood to build a harmonious life between humans and the natural environment. This research observes the people of Kampung Laut, Segara Anakan, Cilcap, who are also members of Krida Wana Lestari, a local mangrove farming group. Data was collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews. The research findings show that members of PT Krida Wana Lestari interact with the environment at any time to collaborate with nature and mangrove trees. The various types of mangove planted in Segara Anakan are growing well due to the emotional connection between farmers and mangrove farmers. Emotional relationships will not grow without interaction. This is why conservation programs involving local stakeholders such as Krida Wana Lestari continue in the long term. Based on the findings, I think that the concept of conservation should not only be understood through an anthropocentric perspective. In fact, there is an emotional and reciprocal understanding between the environment and local stakeholders. This makes the conservation program continue to grow."
