KARAKTERISTIK INDIVIDU TIM KERJA PERLINDUNGAN DAN PENGELOLAAN EKOSISTEM GAMBUT (TK PPEG) DAN PEMETAAN USAHA MASYARAKAT DALAM UPAYA PEMULIHAN EKOSISTEM GAMBUT

Abstract

Indonesia has peatlands of approximately 15.5 million-18.5 million ha on three major islands, namely the islands of Sumatra, Kalimantan and Papua. Kalimantan is an island with a distribution of 9.75 million ha of peatlands, where Tapin and Hulu Sungai Utara Regencies have scattered peatlands. Related to the peatlands being faced is the absence of individual TK-PPEG characteristics and spatial information that maps the distribution of peatland-based community businesses in supporting peat ecosystem restoration efforts. The aims of the research are: (1) To analyze the individual characteristics of TK-PPEG in peatland-based businesses in efforts to restore peatlands; and (2) Analyze the distribution of community efforts in efforts to restore the peat ecosystem. The research was carried out in four scattered villages, namely in Pabaungan Hulu Village, Sungai Rutas Village. Pawalutan Village and Pulau Damar Village. Location determination and informants were selected by purvosive sampling in which all informants were taken from TK-PPEG (Census) members who had peatland-based businesses and village facilitators (2 people/village). The results of the analysis of the TK-PPEG characteristic assessment were that the level of individual characteristics in Sungai Rutas Village was moderate (18.23), Pabaungan Hulu Village was high (19.4), Pawalutan Village was high (19.06), and Pulau Damar Village was moderate (17.41 ). The distribution of community businesses in efforts to restore peat ecosystems is Sungai Rutas Village (eel farming) with a low success rate, Pabaungan Hulu Village (healthy chicken farming) medium success rate, Pawalutan Village (goat farming) high success rate, and Pulau Damar Village success rate low in papuyu fish farming, celery, tomato and watermelon farming, while the success rate is moderate in chili farming

Indonesia memiliki lahan gambut kurang lebih 15,5 juta-18,5 juta ha yang ada di tiga pulau besar yaitu pulau Sumatera, Kalimantan serta Papua. Kalimantan sebagai pulau dengan sebaran lahan gambut 9,75 juta ha dimana, Kabupaten Tapin dan Hulu Sungai Utara memiliki lahan gambut tersebar. Terkait dengan lahan gambut yang dihadapi adalah belum adanya karakteritik individu TK-PPEG dan informasi spasial yang memetakan persebaran usaha masyarakat berbasis lahan gambut dalam mendukung kegiatan upaya pemulihan ekosistem gambut. Tujuan dari penelitian yaitu: (1) Menganalisis karakteristik individu TK-PPEG pada usaha berbasis lahan gambut dalam upaya pemulihan lahan gambut; dan (2) Menganalisis sebaran usaha masyarakat dalam upaya pemulihan ekosistem gambut. Pelaksanaan penelitian di empat desa yang tersebar yaitu di Desa Pabaungan Hulu, Desa Sungai Rutas. Desa Pawalutan dan Desa Pulau Damar. Penentuan lokasi dan informan dipilih secara purvosive sampling dimana informan diambil seluruh anggota TK-PPEG (Sensus) yang mempunyai usaha berbasis lahan gambut dan fasilitator desa (2 orang/desa). Hasil analisis penilaian karakteristik TK-PPEG yaitu tingkat karakteristik individu di Desa Sungai Rutas sedang (18,23), Desa Pabaungan Hulu tinggi (19,4), Desa Pawalutan tinggi (19,06), dan Desa Pulau Damar sedang (17,41). Sebaran usaha masyarakat dalam upaya pemulihan ekosistem gambut yaitu Desa Sungai Rutas (budidaya ikan belut) dengan tingkat keberhasilan rendah, Desa Pabaungan Hulu (peternakan ayam sehat) tingkat keberhasilan sedang, Desa Pawalutan (peternakan kambing) tingkat keberhasilan tinggi, dan Desa Pulau Damar tingkat keberhasilan rendah pada usaha peternakan ikan papuyu, kebun selidri, tomat dan semangka, sedangkan tingkat keberhasilan sedang pada usaha kebun cabe
