As one of the supporters of sustainable development is an effort to fulfill food needs realized through the agricultural sector. However, the current agricultural system mostly uses chemical pesticides, especially in urban agriculture. This is done as an effort to maintain agricultural production and fulfill food needs in urban areas. Even though food needs are met, food security is not yet fulfilled. In solving this problem, the Indonesian Government has created a program that aims at agricultural development, namely Eco-friendly agriculture. Regarding Law Number 22 the Year 2019 Article 48 Concerning Integrated Pest Management, which provides directions such as counseling on Eco-friendly agriculture. In this case, the bioactivity of organic pesticides or biopesticides is the main factor of agriculture. The study is carried out by the Technical Implementing Unit to conduct trials to obtain suitable organic pesticides. The in-silico approach can be used as one of the primary methods to support Government programs. This approach can be used to simulate drug discovery and to determine its bioactivity by performing molecular docking. This study concludes that the in-silico approach has the potential to support Government programs to realize Eco-friendly agriculture as an initial technical effort of the program.
Purpose The Baduy tribe has its own uniqueness and values regarding the forest; it manages the forest using customary law to keep it sustainable. This research aims to describe the position of customary law used by the Baduy tribe to conserve forest areas.Design/methodology/approach This research is a qualitative research conducted in September 2019 and 2020 at Baduy. The data were collected through a literature study and in-depth interviews with informants related to the Baduy tribe. The collected data included documentation and interview transcripts that were translated into English. Data analysis was conducted in a descriptive manner, equipped with related evidence.Findings The Baduy community holds firm to its customs and culture called pikukuh. The Baduy community applies the concept of sustainable forest management in that local communities are directly involved in forest management activities to improve welfare and implement sustainable forests.Practical implications The implication of this research is that it is beneficial for forest conservation based on customary law, using the conservation approach of the Baduy tribe as a local community in protecting the sustainability of forest resources and their sustainability for the next generation. This study contributes as a guide for the government to formulate policies that will include local communities into conservation programs and government policies. It may apply to a study of coordination with related institutions such as the Ministry of Environment and Forestry in implementing forest conservation.Originality/value This study uses primary data from the Baduy tribe, which has unique local traditional values regarding the territory and the important role of the forest. The originality of the findings from the excavation of each activity was based on the procedures and beliefs regulated in customary law regarding forest management. Preservation of traditional knowledge in customary law has contributed to the urgency of sustainable forest conservation and biodiversity conservation, which is part of the traditional knowledge of the Baduy tribe.
Environmental impacts caused by agricultural activities can be reduced by changing the use of chemical pesticides into biopesticides. Efforts made in this way are starting to become global considerations as a strategy to maintain environmental stability and maintain plant quality. This strategy has begun to be applied in Indonesia, especially in agriculture in DKI Jakarta. The research approach used in this research is a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews with government actors. This research aims to find a reasonable effort for taking a social approach through environmental education. The results obtained in this study are agricultural extension, which needs to be carried out as a form of ecological education of farming actors in DKI Jakarta. The strategy to support environmental education, apart from utilizing counseling, was also carried out by field schools to provide additional technical knowledge in agricultural land management. Based on the research conducted, it can be concluded that in addition to the government’s active role in environmental education, it also needs synergy from agricultural actors to create environmental stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
