The study of utilizing the diversity of non-timber forest product species by testing the value of cultural importance or Index of Cultural Significance (ICS) analysis aims to identify the species of non-timber forest products with highest importance value for local communities. The results of this study documented (1) list of species of non-timber forest products that have an important role in the Malay community in Tanjung Jabung, Jambi, including foodstuffs (51-77 plants), vegetable ingredients (21 plants), medicinal materials (> 77 plants), equipment materials (62 plants), pulp and paper materials (27 plants), and other non-timber forest products; (2) list of species of the potential non-timber forest products to be further developed as fruit-producing plants (12 species), vegetables (10 species), medicinal plants (6 species), pulp and paper-based plants (6 species), plywood (18 species), basic materials for manufacturing equipment, arts and other local technology (8 species); and (3) basic data on economic valuation studies of non-timber forest products. The potential species that have high importance value to be cultivated plants were rambai (Baccaurea spp.), cempunik (Artocarpus hispidum), durian (Durio zibethinus, Durio oxleyanus, and Durio spp.), and rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum and Nephelium spp.) for fruits, rotan jernang (Calamus draco and Calamus spp.) as a medicinal material, and other uses. Specifically the diversity of potential species of non-timber forest products will be discussed in this paper.

The community’s reliance on logging forest resources has reached the limit of its carrying capacity. Non-timber forest products are one type of natural resource that can help limit the direct use of timber forest products. Interviewing techniques and field observation were used to acquire data. The findings show that Arenga pinnata and other non-timber forest products (NTFPs) have economic potential as halal foods are Arenga pinnata, Hevea brasiliensis, Durio zibethinus, Areca catechu, Theobroma cacao, Parkia speciosa, Lansium parasiticum, and Archidendron pauciflorum.

Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) are the forest products except timber used for various purposes from which economic status of the country can be increased through green growth based economy. The study was conducted in Baghmara Buffer Zone Community Forest for the inventory, to document various uses and find out the preferred NTFPs potential for economic development of Community Forest User Groups. Stratified random sampling was applied in which 50 quadrats of size 25m×20m for trees, 100 subplots of 10m×10m for shrubs and 200 small subplots of 1m×1msize for herbs and climbers were taken. Parameters like density, frequency, abundance, importance value index, diversity index, evenness index and dominance index were calculated to find out the ecological status of NTFPs. Questionnaire survey of 100 households was done for studying different uses and interview with 10 key informants were carried out to identify 10 most preferred NTFPs. Altogether, 109 NTFPs were enumerated. Trewia nudiflora, Clerodendrum viscosum, Imperatacylindrica and Mikania micrantha were dominant tree, shrub, and herb and climber species accordingto Importance value Index (IVI). There is significant difference in density of trees, shrubs, herbs and climbers between different sample quadrats i.e. p value < 0.05. NTFPs found were used for medicine, fodder, food, veterinary, dying, handicrafts, crop management, ornamental, insecticides, construction, beverage, piscicidal, religious and miscellaneous purposes. Calamus tenuis, Curcumalonga, Piper longum, Phyllanthus emblica, Asparagus racemosus, Terminalia bellirica, Terminaliachebula, Bauhinia variegata, Tinospora sinensis and Dryopteris cochleata were ten most preferred Non Timber Forest Products from matrix preference ranking.

ABSTRAK Hutan Desa Sukaraja merupakan hutan lindung yang dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat melalui pengelolaan dengan sistem agroforestri dan pemungutan hasil hutan bukan kayu untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh data mengenai jenis dan jumlah HHBK dari tanaman MPTs serta menduga potensi HHBK dari tanaman MPTs pada masa yang akan datang berdasarkan ketersediaannya di masa kini. Data dikumpulkan melalui analisis vegetasi pada 29 plot contoh yang diambil berdasarkan metode SRS (Simple Random Sampling). Untuk memprediksi penambahan jumlah MPTs 1 sampai 4 tahun yang akan datang dilakukan pengamatan pohon pada fase tiang dan pancang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat 11 jenis tanaman MPTs yang dimanfaatkan hasil hutan bukan kayunya oleh masyarakat Desa Sukaraja yaitu durian, cengkeh, pala, petai, alpukat, kemiri, mangga, nangka, jengkol, melinjo dan duku. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hingga beberapa tahun yang akan datang pohon cengkeh dan durian masih menjadi MPTs yang paling banyak dimanfaatkan dan ditanam oleh masyarakat. Sedangkan mangga dan kemiri merupakan HHBK yang produksinya akan stagnan atau bahkan mengalami penurunan dalam kurun waktu 1-4 tahun yang akan datang. Kata Kunci : HHBK, MPTs, Hutan Desa, KHP Rajabasa  ABSTRACT Sukaraja Village Forest is a protected forest that is utilized by the community through agroforestry system and collection of non-timber forest products to improved community welfare. This study aimed to obtain data on the types and numbers of NTFPs from MPTs and to estimate the potential of NTFPs from MPTs in the future based on their availability in the present. Data was collected through vegetation analysis with 29 sample plots taken based on the SRS (Simple Random Sampling) method. To predict the increase of amount of MPTs in 1-4 years, observed of trees in the pole and sapling phases. The results showed that there were 11 types of MPTs that were utilized by non-timber forest products by the people of Sukaraja Village, that were Durio Zibethinus, Eugenis aromaticum, Phitecellobium lobatum, Parkia spesiosa, myristica fragnans, Artocarpus heterophyllus, Lansium domesticum, Persea americana, Alueuritas moluccanus, Gnetum gnemon and Mangifera indica. The results showed that for the next few years Eugenia aromaticum and Durio zibethinus trees were still the most widely used and planted by the community. While production of Mangifera indica and Alleurites moluccanus were the NTFPs that will be stagnate or even decline in the next 1-4 years. Keywords : NTFPs, MPTs, Village Forest, KPH Rajabasa

Non-timber forest products were potential assets to generate foreign exchange. Some types of which had good prospects and were in demand in the world of trade were rattan, gondorukem, eucalyptus and cassava. The purpose of this study was to determine the rattan types diversity in Rompo Village, Lore Lindu National Park. The study was conducted in December 2018 to March 2019. This research used the "survey" method by making a plot measuring 20 m x 20 m along to 1000 m. The distance between one track to another was to 200 m. The results showed that the type of Lambang Rattan (Calamus ornatus var celebicus Becc) had the highest density of 563.75 individuals/ha, then Pai Rattan (Calamus koordersianus Becc) 229 individuals/ha, Batang Rattan (Calamus zollingeri Becc) 183 individuals/ha, Ibo Rattan (Calamus ahlidurii) 52 individuals/ha, Rattan Tohiti Botol (Calamus sp) 46.25 individuals/ha, Pute Rattan (Calamus leiocaulis Becc ex. Heyne) 11.75 individuals/ha, Karuku Rattan (Calamus macrosphaerica Becc) 10 individuals/ha and the smallest was the type of Tohiti Wulo Rattan (Calamus sp) 9.75 individuals/ha. Rattan which had the highest Importance Value Index was the Lambang Rattan (Calamus ornatus var celebicus Becc) with an Importance Value Index value of 72.14% while the rattan that had the lowest Importance Value Index was Tohiti Wulo Rattan (Calamus sp) with an INP value of 5.02%. The level of species diversity (H ') of the rattan types found in the research location was classified as moderate with an H value of 1.75. The higher the area where the rattan is grown, the fewer types of rattan that can grow and only small rattan can grow on high ground, especially Tohiti rattan and large rattan cannot be found any more like Lambang rattan.

Tropical forests can provide forest dwellers with a sizable proportion of their dietary needs. Yet, many development and conservation organizations tend to disregard these opportunities, promoting market-oriented reforms that aim at introducing cash crops and markets for non- timber forest products (NTFPs) in the name of poverty alleviation and/or biodiversity conservation. In so doing, they help relegate wild food plants to the position of food for the poor (De Beer & McDermott 1996; Neumann & Hirsch 2000), reserve food in case of famine (Takasaki et al. 2004), or food supplementing that produced on farm plots (Ousseynou & Tieguhong 2004). This comment discusses the economic rationale for the consumption of wild edible plants by forest-dwelling communities, comparing the results obtained from two methods of evaluation. The paper is based on one month of fieldwork during December 2004 carried out by the author together with Theresa Wong and two specially-trained research assistants in Thung Yai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary (Western Thailand).

Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) such as the root of Akar Wangi (Vetiveria zizainoides), Durian’s bark (Durio zibethinus Murr), Jaringau (Acorus Calamus L.), Liligundi (Vitex trifolia), Gemor bark (Alseodaphne spp.),  and Neem seeds (Azadirachta indica A. Juss.) have good potential as a natural insecticide. They can be used  for anti-mosquito materials that can be prevent the development of vector-borne Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Disruptive effects of the plants to the insects come from the odor which produces from the plant. Judging from the compounds that contained in non-timber forest products (NTFPs), beside used as anti-mosquito repellent, it can also used  as other pests repellant such as bugs,   termites, ants, etc. The end product also can be diversed  as insect repellent burns, topical / lotion, spray, and others.Keywords :  akar wangi,  durian bark, jariangau, liligundi, gemor bark, mimba, natural insecticide
