“…The human population size had no correlation with the number of FTS, in contrast to the number of non-FTS, which increased from small to large/metropolitan cities (Table 2). The correlation between city population and FTS number was described by Santosa et al [117]. If the cities are divided into small to large cities vs. metropolitan/megapolitan, the former contains higher numbers of fruit species than the latter (37-46 vs. 26-34 species).…”

“…In other cases, trees along roadsides were destroyed following road improvements for handling a higher traffic load [137]. According to Santosa et al [117], about 40-60% of fruit species in Indonesian cities are located along the roadside. Thus, the socio-cultural perspective is an interesting direction for the study of FTS.…”

“…Currently, many city landscapers believe that planting date palms (Phoenix dactylifolia or Phoenix canariensis) in cities and parks close to religious facilities will increase good luck. Santosa et al [117] noted five tree species emerging in Indonesian cities, i.e., dates palm, sea mango, tabebuya (Tabebuia cassinoides), velvet apple (Diospyros blancoi), and weeping willow (Salix babylonica). Some citizens in Yogyakarta warned that the introduction of FTS to public facilities might lead to injuries in some children because they would compete for fruits and fall because of broken twigs.…”

Planting multifunctional trees (e.g., fruit species) in cities can promote genetic conservation, economic activity, ecosystem services, and social cohesion. However, in Indonesia, the relationship between the abundance of fruit tree species and different city characteristics, including their involvement in the national smart city project, is still unknown. In this study, published reports and field surveys were used to evaluate the fruit tree distribution and its relationship with the characteristics of 224 of 514 Indonesian cities in order to identify tree species for multifunctional city greenery. This is the first study on the distribution of fruit tree species at the national level. The study identified 151 fruit species of 90 genera and 40 families, including large-sized fruits, such as avocados, breadfruit, coconuts, durians, jackfruit, and mangos. On average, cities contained 54 tree species, of which 21 (38.9%) were fruit trees. These findings indicate that cities are important contributors to the genetic conservation of local fruit trees, which can be further evaluated as new city greenery. However, a city’s involvement in the smart city project bore no relationship (p > 0.05) with the number of identified fruit species. Conversely, non-fruit species tended to be more diverse in smart cities. Since the presence of fruit species is associated with the city population, geographic position, climate, altitude, and attitude towards the fragility of sustainable conservation, introducing and maintaining these species as city greenery requires advocacy to city stakeholders.

“…Di sisi lain, masyarakat mengharapkan agar jenis tanaman penghijauan kota berperan multifungsi selain memiliki fungsi estetika dan ekologis, juga bermanfaat dalam menyediakan pangan dan kesehatan mental (Vujcic et al, 2017;Atmojo et al, 2018). Introduksi tanaman buah sebagai penghijauan kota juga merupakan salah satu alternatif untuk perlindungan tanaman langka di Indonesia (Santosa et al, 2020;Mukson et al, 2021). Penelitian ini memiliki arti strategis dalam meningkatkan partisipasi masyarakat untuk kenyamanan kota dan mempersiapkan model kota cerdas masa depan yang memberikan jasa landskap (landscape service) yang lebih beragam (Fineschi dan Loreto, 2020).…”

Penghijauan kota menggunakan tanaman multipurpose merupakan trend global untuk meningkatkan ketahanan pangan, disamping tetap mempertahankan fungsi penghijauan. Untuk itu, persepsi dan preferensi masyarakat menjadi sangat penting. Namun keterlibatan masyarakat dalam menentukan tanaman penghijauan di perkotaan masih jarang diteliti di Indonesia. Penelitian bertujuan mengetahui persepsi dan preferensi masyarakat pada tanaman buah sebagai penghijauan kota, dan mengetahui alasan yang mendasari persepsi dan preferensi masyarakat. Penelitian dilakukan di Kecamatan Tangerang dan Batuceper, Kota Tangerang. Data dikumpulkan melalui survey dan wawancara dengan 50 responden pada September 2020 sampai Mei 2021. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 92% responden setuju penghijauan kota menggunakan tanaman buah. Selain diambil buahnya, tanaman diharapkan memiliki fungsi ekologis, perlindungan pengguna jalan dari kecelakaan lalu lintas, dan keindahan. Responden merekomendasikan 48 jenis tanaman buah, dan jenis yang diminati lebih dari 50% responden adalah mangga (Mangifera indica), jambu biji (Psidium guajava), jeruk manis (Citrus sinensis), rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum), dan belimbing (Averrhoa carambola). Kata kunci: ketahanan pangan, kota cerdas, pinggir jalan, taman kota, tanaman multiguna

Perceived biodiversity of fruit species for urban greenery in Indonesia: Case studies in Bogor, Jakarta, and Yogyakarta

Abstract. Ruwaida IP, Santosa E, Susila AD, Widodo WD, Wachjar A, Nasrullah N. 2022. Perceived biodiversity of fruit species for urban greenery in Indonesia: Case studies in Bogor, Jakarta, and Yogyakarta. Biodiversitas 23: 3166-3177. Urban greenery planning considering biodiversity scenarios is still rarely studied in Indonesia. This study aims to demonstrate edible fruit species (FS) as the scenario for urban greenery based on interviews with citizens in Indonesian cities. The study was carried out in the cities that have implemented smart city models i.e., Bogor, Jakarta, and Yogyakarta-Indonesia. Interviews were conducted in July-December 2019, involving 420 respondents. The results showed that 77.7% of all respondents agreed with the planting of FS as city greenery. In total for all cities, there were 79 species belonging to 32 families mentioned by the respondents consisting of 41 commercial and 38 underutilized FS. Each respondent was able to mention between 20.4 and 22.8 fruit species, irrespective of city. The ability to mention fruit species was affected by the respondent’s background, especially exposure during childhood to FS, frequency as a domestic tourist, mobility mode, and frequency of visiting city parks. The rationale for selecting FS was the benefit of fruit as a food source, followed by the benefit of ecology, economy, aesthetics, and health. Based on the significant cultural index, mango ranked first as the most preferred commercial fruit species, followed by rambutan, rose apple, orange, papaya, starfruit, guava, avocado, sapodilla, and longan; and for underutilized FS were shoe-button, pinang, nam nam, mulberry, cactus, canistel, cherry, and pear. Value of species richness, Shannon-Wienner, and Simpson diversity indices of FS within a city ranged 0.97 to 1.06, 3.62 to 3.83, and 0.97, respectively. Biodiversity scenarios could be useful information in the greenery planning of smart cities to coop with evolving broader environmental services.
