Keberadaan industri semen di Kecamatan Bayah seperti dua sisi mata uang logam, memiliki dampak positif dan negatif tertentu bagi masyarakat sekitar, khususnya terhadap mata pencaharian nelayan Bayah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kondisi mata pencaharian nelayan sebelum dan sesudah adanya industri semen, dan mengidentifikasi strategi adaptasi untuk menjamin keberlanjutan mata pencaharian di kalangan nelayan. Metode yang digunakan yaitu deskriptif kualitatif dengan nelayan sebagai key informan. Data didapatkan melalui kuesioner, wawancara mendalam, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), dan observasi lapangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa masuknya industri semen (PT. Cemindo Gemilang) di Kecamatan Bayah membawa perubahan berantai, baik dari perubahan ekologis maupun kehidupan sosial ekonomi nelayan. Perubahan ekologis menyebabkan bergesernya daerah tangkapan ikan, perubahan ketersediaan produk perikanan sebagai modal utama, peningkatan biaya dalam mengakses sumber daya, dan berimplikasi pada pendapatan rumah tangga nelayan. Ketidakpastian penghasilan seringkali ditanggulangi dengan diversifikasi mata pencaharian, yang merupakan salah satu bentuk strategi nafkah ganda yang sudah dilakukan oleh nelayan Bayah sebelum adanya industri semen. Namun setelah adanya industri semen membuka peluang untuk bekerja di sektor non perikanan yaitu sebagai buruh pabrik dan kuli panggul di dermaga. Strategi adaptasi untuk menjamin keberlanjutan mata pencaharian dilakukan melalui adaptasi berupa penganekaragaman sumber pendapatan, penganekaragaman alat tangkap, perubahan daerah tangkapan, dan memanfaatkan hubungan sosial. Title: The Impact of the Cement Industry to the Livelihood System of Bayah Fishers The existence of cement industry in Bayah Sub-district is like two sides of the same coin, it has a positive and negative impacts for the surrounding community, especially on the livelihood of Bayah fishers. This study aims to describe the livelihood conditions of fishers before and after the cement industry exists in their village as well as to identify adaptation strategies to ensure the sustainability of fishers livelihoods. The study used descriptive qualitative method involving fishers as the key informant. Data were collected through questionnaires, in-depth interviews, FGD, and field observations. Results showed that the existence of cement industry (PT. Cemindo Gemilang) in Bayah Sub-district brought about a series of change toward ecological and socio-economic life of the fishers. Ecological change led to shifting of catchment areas, changes in the availability of fisheries product as their major capital, increased costs of access to resources, and implications toward household incomes. Uncertainty of income was frequently solved by varying livelihoods, and it was one of strategies that has been implemented by Bayah fishers even before the cement industry exists. However, the existence of cement industry has created job opportunity in non-fishery sector such as factory workers and dock porters. Adaptation strategies to ensure the sustainability of their livelihood are: diversification of sources of income, diversification of fishing gear, relocation of fishing area and empowerment of social relationship.

AbstractAutomation of machine learning model development is increasingly becoming an established research area. While automated model selection and automated data pre-processing have been studied in depth, there is, however, a gap concerning automated model adaptation strategies when multiple strategies are available. Manually developing an adaptation strategy can be time consuming and costly. In this paper we address this issue by proposing the use of flexible adaptive mechanism deployment for automated development of adaptation strategies. Experimental results after using the proposed strategies with five adaptive algorithms on 36 datasets confirm their viability. These strategies achieve better or comparable performance to the custom adaptation strategies and the repeated deployment of any single adaptive mechanism.

Climate change is considered as one of the environmental problems because it can reduce farmers' productivity and income, so farmers must implement adaptation strategies to minimize the negative impacts of climate change. This study aims to determine the implementation of farmers 'adaptation strategies, the factors that influence it, and assessing the benefits of implementing adaptation strategies on farmer productivity and incomes. This research was conducted in Sekarputih and Pendem hamlets, Pendem Village, Batu City with a sample size of 80 rice farmers. The analytical tools used are logistic regression to assess the factors that influence farmers' decisions, and t-test to assess the benefits of implementing adaptation strategies. The results showed that the climate change adaptation strategy applied by farmers in Sekarputih and Pendem hamlets during the dry season was to use dry season adaptive varieties. Farmers' decisions to implement adaptation strategies are influenced by factors of education, activeness in farmer groups, seed sources, harvest orientation, and weather information. The t-test shows that farmers who apply adaptation strategies get higher productivity and income than farmers who do not apply adaptation strategies

Climate change impact is global and Nepal is no exception, posing vulnerability for different communities and regions. Transhumance herding is the culture and identity of indigenous settlement in Himalayan region where herders follow vertical transhumance herding as a part of subsistence mixed agriculture system for their livelihood. It differs from nomadism in terms of its periodicity, regularity, and mobility. This study confers the impacts of climate change and adaptation on transhumance herders in Gatlang of Rasuwa District. Focus Group Discussion, Key Informant Interview, and Questionnaire survey were carried out covering herder’s perception toward climatic variability, changes in the biophysical indicator, its impact and adaptation strategies. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, weighted mean, and Index of Usefulness of Practice for Adaptation (IUPA) tools. This study showed increase in mean average temperature (0.0202°C), increase in monsoon precipitation (2.1 mm) and decrease in winter precipitation (0.5 mm). Seasonal movement of livestock was mainly guided for adjusting temperature. The observed changes in biophysical indicator were diverse with shrinking grazing lands as most agreed statements followed by low crop productivity and faster melting of snow in rangeland. Herders perceived different adaptation strategies where reserving some grazing areas scored highest IUPA ranking followed by seasonal movement, storage of grass/hay, and so on. Though transhumance itself is one of the adaptation strategy against climate change people were not aware about changing monsoon precipitation and following same seasonal calendar as before which have affected livestock. These observations suggested that herders were unaware of the underlying cause and its impacts on the system which needed to be monitored scientifically.

Activities carried out in coastal areas such as recreation, fishing activities, and transportation makes coastal regions have an essential role in life. However, activities carried out in the region often leave negative impacts, such as dumping trash directly into the sea. Coastal communities still carry out their activities to dispose of their waste now to the sea. The process of cleaning up marine litter in the coastal areas using heavy equipment is quite tricky. This is because the condition of buildings in the coastal area has the building with the concept of houses on stilts. The research has succeeded in making a marine garbage dredging using a conveyor system that is contained using a wireless joystick and can be well controlled within a radius of about 7 meters. The dredging is also equipped with a weight sensor (load cell) used to determine the load of garbage displayed on the 16 x 2 LCD. Garbage weight is stored in the SD card. The data stored on the SD card will show the time and load of garbage that has been transported by conveyor in an area.

Negative Impacts

The negative impacts of climate change caused many losses for farmers. One solution to minimize losses is to implement a climate change adaptation strategy. The Indonesian government established a program called the Program Kampung Iklim/Proklim in 2012 which aims to increase awareness of climate change and the capacity to implement community adaptation strategies. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Proklim on the implementation of climate change adaptation strategy by farmers. The study was conducted  in Proklim and non-Proklim locations. By implementing the simple random sampling method, it was obtained 112 samples divided into 56 farmers from each Proklim and non-Proklim location. The results showed that farming experience, land area, membership in farmers group, access to weather information, awareness towards climate change and perceptions towards climate change risks are associated with more practice of adaptation strategy. The results also showed that the implementation of adaptation strategy was influenced by the Proklim location, so that the farmers involved in the program locations applied more climate change adaptation strategy than the farmers in non-program locations.  The authors recommend that Proklim needs to be applied in many locations, especially areas that are vulnerable to climate change, so farmers can improve the implementation of climate change adaptation strategies.

<p>ABSTRACT<br />The impact of oil palm plantation expansion is felt by the farmers’ households in Central Kalimantan, such as income change, new sources of livelihood related to oil palm, and social economy-ecology ecosystem change. For that, there needs to be an ecological socio-economic strategy. The purpose of this research is to know how socio economic-ecological strategy of farmer’s household in facing the impact of oil palm plantation expansion. Focuses on aspects of socio economic-ecological adaptation mechanisms in relation to local income and their implications for poverty alleviation. The method used is in depth interview, survey, observation and Focus Group Discussion. The analysis used in this research is descriptive qualitative-quantitative. The results showed that there are two factors causing conversion of land into palm land that is economic and policy factors. Conversion of land into oil palm in Beringin Agung Village and Pendahara Village was then addressed differently by farmer households through various adaptation strategies. Adaptation strategies carried out by farmers’ households in two research sites include social economic and ecological strategy. All layers of households in Beringin Agung Village tend to have little choice of adaptation strategy because of the large number of land conversion into oil palm plantations. Meanwhile, all layers of farm households in Pendahara Village have relatively varied adaptation strategies because there are still many natural resources around there.<br />Keywords: adaptation, farmers, households, land conversion, livelihood strategies, oil palm</p><p><br />ABSTRAK<br />Dampak ekspansi perkebunan Sawit dirasakan oleh rumahtangga petani di Kalimantan Tengah, berupa perubahan pendapatan, munculnya sumber mata pencaharian baru yang berhubungan dengan Sawit, berubahnya sosial ekonomi dan ekologi ekosistem. Untuk itu, perlu ada strategi sosial ekonomi ekologi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana strategi adaptasi sosial ekonomi ekologi rumahtangga petani dalam menghadapi dampak ekspansi perkebunan Sawit, dan berfokus pada aspek mekanisme adaptasi sosial-ekonomi-ekologi dalam kaitannya dengan ekonomi lokal dan implikasinya terhadap penanggulangan kemiskinan. Metode penelitian menggunakan in depth interview, survey, observasi dan Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Analisis yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif-kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa terdapat dua faktor penyebab konversi lahan menjadi Sawit yaitu faktor ekonomi dan faktor kebijakan. Konversi lahan hutan menjadi Sawit disikapi secara berbeda oleh rumahtangga petani melalui berbagai strategi adaptasi bertahan hidupnya. Strategi adaptasi yang dilakukan oleh rumahtangga petani meliputi strategi ekonomi, sosial dan strategi ekologi. Semua lapisan rumahtangga di Desa Beringin Agung cenderung tidak banyak mempunyai pilihan strategi adaptasi karena telah banyaknya konversi lahan menjadi perkebunan Sawit, sehingga cenderung homogen. Sementara itu, semua lapisan rumahtangga petani di Desa Pendahara relatif heterogen strategi adaptasinya karena masih ketersediaan sumberdaya alam yang melimpah disana.<br />Kata kunci: adaptasi, Kelapa Sawit, konversi lahan, petani, rumahtangga, strategi nafkah</p>
