Optimization agroforestry to address green economy and climate change in Manokwari Regency, West Papua

Farm (kebun) and yard (Pekarangan), as traditional agroforestry systems that have been developed over a long period of time by trial and error based on the social, cultural, and economics of the local community. In general, the green economy value of the results of local agroforestry systems, both gardens, and yards, provides low benefits based on the real costs incurred. Increasing the optimization of local agroforestry systems by taking into account the economy and carbon stock are needed in an effort to increase the green economy based on local agroforestry and mitigation efforts from the forestry sector. Data was collected from households of Bremi Village, District of Manokwari Regency using a purposive sampling method through the bio-physic inventory, and economic analysis. Through the results of the optimization of gardens and yards, there was an increase in the important value index, species diversity index, carbon stock, and economy by 91% and 53% respectively. Through the optimization of agroforestry practices (OAPs), the production scale is expected to improve the local community income as well as to preserve typical species, environmental conservation, long-term strategies for extreme climate conditions, and support the Low Carbon Development Indonesia program (LCDI) in West Papua.
