Strategi Pengembangan Masyarakat Petani Lahan Gambut melalui Program Tanggung Jawab Sosial Perusahaan: Analisis Pendekatan Penghidupan Berkelanjutan

Indonesia memiliki kontribusi pada perubahan iklim global melalui lahan gambut yang tersebar dari Sumatra, Kalimantan, hingga Papua. Sayangnya, pengelolaan lahan gambut di Indonesia belum mengindahkan aspek keberlanjutan. Hal ini berkaitan erat dengan kemiskinan dan keterbelakangan masyarakat petani. Penelitian ini berfokus untuk melihat bagaimana strategi pengembangan masyarakat petani lahan gambut dengan menggunakan pendekatan penghidupan berkelanjutan melalui program Desa Wisata Gambut Sejahtera (DEWIGATRA). Hasilnya, DEWIGATRA berhasil menyejahterakan kelompok petani lahan gambut melalui dua cara. Pertama, mitigasi kebencanaan melalui peningkatan kualitas modal social, human dan physical. Hal ini diwujudkan dengan melakukan reintegrasi kelompok Masyarakat Peduli Api, pelaksanaan pelatihan mitigasi bencana karhutla, serta pengadaan sarana dan prasarana berupa alat pemadam dan embung. Kedua, pengembangan modal natural dan financial melalui program pemberdayaan. Upaya ini dilakukan dengan mengubah sistem pertanian dengan menghadirkan inovasi drip irrigation system. Kata kunci: Pengembangan Masyarakat, Petani Lahan Gambut, Penghidupan Berkelanjutan Indonesia has an important role in global climate change because of its peatlands that spread from Sumatra, Kalimantan to Papua. Unfortunately, peatland management in Indonesia has not heeded the sustainability aspect. This is closely related to the poverty and backwardness of the farming community. This study aims to determine the development strategy of peatland farming communities with using a sustainable livelihood approach through Desa Wisata Gambut Sejahtera (DEWIGATRA) program. As a result, DEWIGATRA prospered peatland farmer groups in two ways. First, disaster mitigation through improving the quality of social, human and physical capital. This is realized by reintegrating the Fire Care Community group, implementing forest fire disaster mitigation training, as well as providing facilities and infrastructure in the form of fire extinguishers and reservoirs. Second, increasing natural and financial capital through empowerment programs. This effort is carried out by changing the agricultural system by introducing the drip irrigation system innovation.

A field experiment was carried out in the field of the College of Agriculture / University of Wasit, located on longitude 45o 50o 33.5o East and latitude 32o 29o 49.8o North, in Spring season of the agricultural season 2019, in order to estimate the water consumption of potato crop using SWRT technology and under the drip irrigation system. The experiment was designed according to Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications and four treatments that include of the SWRT treatment (the use of plastic films under the plant root area in an engineering style), and the treatment of vegetal fertilizer (using Petmos), organic fertilizer (sheep manure), and the control treatment . Potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.) var. Burin was planted for spring season on 10/2/2019 at the soil depth of 5-10 cm. The highest reference water consumption for the potato crop during the season was calculated by Najeeb Kharufa, which was 663.03 mm. The highest actual water consumption for the potato crop during the season for the control treatment was 410.1 mm. The results showed increase in the values of the crop coefficient (Kc) in the stages of tubers formation and tubers filling stage as compared to the vegetative and ripening stages, ranged from 1.37-1.92 for the two stages of tubers formation and tubers filling. The SWRT treatment gave the highest water use efficiency during the season, was 3.46 kg m-3 .
