  • Publisher: CRC Press

This book contains papers presented at the International Workshop on Tropical Wetlands, held in Banjarmasin, Indonesia. This workshop discussed wetland mapping and characterization as well as wetland management for sustainable agriculture. This volume contains selected papers on tropical wetlands, more specifically, peatland, tidal land, and acid sulphate soils. This book presents an international overview of wetland and peatland mapping experiences from Indonesia, Congo, Brazil, Australia, and Scotland. Several innovative techniques are discussed, including integrated digital soil mapping and remote sensing techniques, as well as geodatabase processing and field surveying. This book further discussed tropical wetland management for agriculture as practiced in Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. The contents of this book are suitable and should be a good reference for those who are involved in research, development, and management of tropical wetland, including academics, soil scientists, environmentalists, researchers, agriculturists, students, agri-businessmen, policy makers, land managers and farmers.

Persoalan pangan menjadi perhatian besar dunia di tengah pandemik Covid 19. Pandemik Covid 19 diduga kuat berakibat pada penurunan produksi pangan dunia sehingga beberapa negara terancam rawan pangan, termasuk Indonesia sebagai salah satu negara importir beras dunia. Oleh karena itu, pemerintah secara mendadak menginisiasi pengembangan kawasan food estate di lahan rawa Kalimantan Tengah seluas 770.600 hektare hingga tahun 2023. Pada tahun 2020 ditargetkan 30.000 hektare terbangun kawasan food estate di Kabupaten Kapuas dan Kabupaten Pulang Pisau, Kalimantan Tengah, dengan memanfaatkan lahan-lahan rawa yang sudah establish, antara lain jaringan infrastruktur saluran tata air utamanya (DIR) cu...

A protocol for measurement, monitoring, reporting and verification of soil organic carbon in agricultural landscapes

This document provides a conceptual framework and standard methodologies for the monitoring, reporting and verification of changes in SOC stocks and GHG emissions/removals from agricultural projects that adopt sustainable soil management practices (SSM) at farm level. It is intended to be applied in different agricultural lands, including annual and perennial crops (food, fibre, forage and bioenergy crops), paddy rice, grazing lands with livestock including pastures, grasslands, rangelands, shrublands, silvopasture and agroforestry. Although developed for projects carried out at farm level, potential users include investors, research institutions, government agencies, consultants, agricultural companies, NGOs, individual farmers or farmer associations, supply chain and other users who are interested in measuring and estimating SOC stocks and changes and GHG emissions in response to management practices. The document is an outcome of the successful Global Symposium on Soil Organic Carbon (GSOC17), which was held in Rome in March 2017. The document is of technical nature in support of the Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration work. Its use is not mandatory but of voluntary nature.

Pengelolaan pertanian berkelanjutan berorientasi pada peningkatan produktivitas tanaman dengan memperhatikan kelestarian lingkungan. Masalah pencemaran dan perusakan lingkungan hidup telah menjelma menjadi sebuah isu global yang diyakini secara internasional. Hampir 69% tanah pertanian di Indonesia dikategorikan sudah rusak parah (tandus) yang disebabkan penggunaan pupuk kimia dan pestisida yang berlebihan. Kondisi seperti ini menjadi salah satu penyebab Indonesia menjadi sangat rentan terhadap dampak perubahan iklim. Kerusakan lingkungan bisa diatasi dengan pengembangan sistem produksi yang mengutamakan keanekaragaman hayati pertanian dan meniru proses alamiah dalam ekosistem alam. Caranya ...

Membumikan Sukabumi (sebuah interpretasi atas kekayaan sosio-humaniora di Kab. Sukabumi)

Buku ini sebenarnya hanya terdiri dari 6 kumpulan tulisan atas refleksi pengalaman yang berhasil kami potret selama kebersamaan kami di beberapa wilayah Kabupaten Sukabumi terhitung sejak 2018 hingga sekarang. Karena itu sebenarnya judul Membumikan Sukabumi yang kami sematkan pada buku ini sebenarnya terlalu wah. Terlalu bombastis, sehingga bukan tak mungkin bilamana kemudian setelah membaca isinya, akan lebih banyak mengecewakannya dibanding memuaskan.

Global Soil Organic Carbon Map (GSOCmap) Version 1.5

GSOCmap is the first global soil organic carbon map ever produced through a consultative and participatory process involving member countries, which makes this map totally new and unique. In fact, the map was prepared by member countries, under the guidance of the Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils and the Global Soil Partnership Secretariat. Countries agreed on the methodology to produce the map and were trained on modern tools and methodologies to develop national maps. The Global Soil Partnership then gathered all national maps to produce the final product, ensuring a thorough harmonization process. This technical report is a companion report to the GSOCmap V1.5. It presents methodologies and process of compiling the Global Soil Organic Carbon Map.

Global Soil Organic Carbon Map – GSOCmap v.1.6

This document presents the technical details of the first-ever country-driven Global Soil Organic Carbon Map (GSOCmap). This map allows the estimation of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) stocks from 0 to 30 cm. It represents a key contribution to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 15.3.1, which defines the area of degraded land. The novelty of this map is the fact that it is the first Global SOC stocks assessment which is produced through a participatory approach. Supported by the GSP-Secretariat, countries developed their capacities and stepped up efforts to compile or collect all available soil information at the national level. This technical report is a companion report to the GSOCmap V1.6.0. It presents methodologies and process of compiling the Global Soil organic Carbon Map (GSOCmap).
