Abstract
The Seed Production Area (SPA) of sandalwood (Santalum album L.) in East Nusa Tenggara is Indonesia’s sole designated site for sandalwood seed production. It was established 32 years ago using trees from six provenances on Timor Island. The SPA supports regional economies and ecological protection by producing high-quality seeds for commercially valuable trees and species conservation. Despite annual seed collection, information on reproductive status,
Abstract
Angiosperm trees develop tension wood on the upper side of leaning stems to reorient the direction of stems towards their normal positions in response to a gravitational stimulus. The development of gelatinous fibers with thick inner gelatinous layers (G-layers) might elevate tensile stress required for such reorientation in many angiosperm species. This study aims to investigate negative gravitropism and tension wood formation in response to a gravitational
Abstract
Coastal areas are classified as highly vulnerable because they are always tied to changes in the global aquatic environment. The ecosystem dynamics are increasingly complicated and complex as a result of interactions with other systems on land. This phenomenon is very visible in the coastal areas of Bantul Regency and Kulon Progo Regency. We use Sentinel-2 satellite image interpretation in the period 2013-2022 as a historical record of land use change, and
Abstract
Bamboo waste from the handicraft and furniture industry is an excellent source of lignocellulose with significant potential for use as raw material in particleboard production. The bamboo particleboard, when paired with a natural adhesive such as maltodextrin-based adhesive, potentially provides an eco-friendly wastemanagement solution, aligning with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 12 and 13. The optimal manufacturing conditions for maltodextrin/ammonium
Abstract
Bamboo, one of the non-timber forest products, is promising in climate change mitigation strategy due to its ability to remove COfrom the atmosphere through photosynthesis. However, the allometric model to estimate the biomass 2and carbon of bamboo is still limited. The research aimed to develop the allometric model using the diameter as the predictor. The materials for destructive sampling were 30 culms of yellow ampel bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris var. striata).
Abstract
Coffee is commonly cultivated under agroforestry systems, including dry-field and homegarden. These systems were differentiated based on their proximity to the settlements, which might influence the species composition. This study aimed to observe plant composition, diversity, vegetation structure, and microclimate in coffee agroforestry systems and the physiological conditions of coffee. The experimental design was based on purposive sampling. A total of 100
Abstract
The development of bamboo as a raw material for construction materials has drawbacks, including low physical properties. Therefore, this work aimed to determine the physical and mechanical properties of laminated boards modified with citric acid, boric acid, and polystyrene. In addition, the study analysed the optimum immersion time and the phenomenon of the modifications provided. Two-step conditions were designed for the immersion of bamboo lamina. The first
Fakultas Kehutanan Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) kembali menyelenggarakan kegiatan Praktik Silvikultur Intensif (SILIN) di Tahun Ajaran 2024/2025. Praktik Lapangan minat Silvikultur ini diikuti oleh 73 mahasiswa yang terbagi dalam 15 kelompok, didampingi oleh 23 Dosen Pembimbing Lapangan serta petugas lapangan dari masing-masing Kesatuan Pengelolaan Hutan (KPH).
Pada Tahun Ajaran 2024/2025 ini, Praktik SILIN dilaksanakan di sembilan KPH wilayah Perum Perhutani
