FOREWORD
Agriculture as one of leading economic sectors in some countries, is currently facing many problems. This situation could be overcomed by policy and institutional environment which is condusive to increase agricultural productivity while maintaining a sustainable agriculture development and food security. According to this, it is required to develop strategies, a new paradigm, and holistic approach to support the agricultural growth continuum.
In order to make a significant contribution to the better understanding of sustainable agriculture for meeting food security needs and addressing climate change challenges, an International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security was held in Bandung Indonesia on 27-28 September 2011. This conference was organized by collaboration of four faculties in Universitas Padjadjaran: Faculty of Agriculture, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Faculty of Fishery and Marine Science, and Faculty of Agricultural Industrial Technology. Ministry of Agriculture of Republic Indonesia and internationally well-known experts from USA, Finlandia, Singapore, Germany, Malaysia, Romania, Republic of Serbia, China as well as Indonesia were invited as resource speakers.
More than 250 participants from 15 countries attended the conference. The conference shared experiences and views regarding agricultural production in a changing environment towards sustainable agriculture development to maintain food security, and stimulated cooperative research among participating institutions.
About 180 papers are presented and the committee hopes that these papers will be a lsating record of the contributions to this conference and a useful reference for all practitioners in the fields of agriculture in general. Some of the topics presented include critical issues dealing with sustainable agriculture and food security, agrosocio-economy, agritechnology, plant sciences, animal production, and food technology. The committee would like to thank the many reviewers of the papers for their contribution to these proceedings.
The conference and proceeding would have not been accomplished without the support of many individuals, groups and academic units. We owe our gratitude to those who commit and dedicate their self to this conference.

Abstract
Generally, ecology on big islands and small islands is different. In case of small
islands ecology is more fragile, implementation of sustainable agriculture, forest and fishery
should be handled carefully. The research regarding management of coastal area in small
islands and its impact for sustainable development in Regency of Kepulauan Aru, Maluku
Province was done.
The results showed that the natural resources of Kepulauan Aru Regency is a very
potential regency for fishery development and fishery sector has become as leading sector
and prime mover for economical development in this region. Unfortunately, the coastal area,
low land and high land have damaged by forest degradation, deforestation and others
activities. In this case, forest quality can be improved through forest conservation action in
Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+) Project.
The Special Design of REDD+ Project in Small Islands is needed and should be done
by harmonizing Agriculture, Forests and Fishery management with involvement of all
stakeholders in this region.
Keywords: sustainable agriculture, REDD+, deforestation, forest degradation.
Introduction
In general, ecology on small island is very specific and there is difference between
small island and big island. Dahl (1998) states the ocean covers more than two thirds of our
planet, and small island developing States are generally somewhere in the middle of it. Their
environmental priorities concern the islands themselves and their immediate coastal areas,
where the balance of population and resources is critical for the future. From the perspective
of the island countries, the ocean is still an unlimited resource relative to the present scale of
136 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
their human impacts. The effects on the ocean of the great centres of population and industry
in continental countries are much more significant.
Natural resources management in small islands should be done fully attention and
properly. Widespread environmental problems should be minimized i.e. the safe disposal of
liquid domestic wastes (human wastes and urban sewage); the damage or destruction of
productive coastal resources and fisheries; the steady reduction in forest cover (timber
extraction, shifting cultivation and land clearing for agriculture); conflict of interest on land
use and land tenure. In any case, we have to manage natural resource in small island wisely.
In this region, efficient use must be made of all available land to meet the needs of the people
for water, food, building materials and reasonable quality of life, and to maintain the
functioning of natural systems on which all these depend. This requires comprehensive
planning and careful allocation of land to the most appropriate use or combination of uses.
In the last two decades, the most threats of sustainable natural resource management
in small islands is global warming. Global warming is a gradual warming of Earth’s
atmosphere reportedly caused by the burning of fossils fuels and industrial pollutant. It is
caused by gaseous that trap suns heat in Earth’s atmosphere. Primarily carbon dioxide and
CFC gaseous are to blame. In general, adverse effects of global warming on small islands is
slight increase in sea levels, increases the temperature of sea and blamed for severe climatic
change. Many efforts to handle global warming, one of them is REDD program. It is
estimated that greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation and degradation contribute up to
20% of global emissions. REDD stands for 'reducing emissions from deforestation and
degradation', and is an important part of global policies to address climate change. The term
'REDD-plus' or 'REDD+' is now also used frequently. REDD+ is similar to REDD, but
instead of just covering deforestation and degradation, it includes other activities, such as the
sustainable management of forests and the enhancement of forest carbon stocks (Graham,
2010). Therefore harmonizing agriculture, forest and fishery management in the design of
REDD+ in small island is important.
Materials and Methods
Methods of the study are environmental policy study and literature study.
Environmental policy is any [course of] action deliberately taken [or not taken] to manage
human activities with a view to prevent, reduce, or mitigate harmful effects on nature and
natural resources, and ensuring that man-made changes to the environment do not have
137 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
harmful effects on humans (McCormick, 2001). Environmental policy study focuses on
problems arising from human impact on the environment, which retroacts onto human society
by having a (negative) impact on human values such as good health or the 'clean and green'
environment. There are many environmental issues in the world. In general, environmental
issues addressed by environmental policy include natural resource i.e. air and watershed
management, water pollution, forest with its biodiversity protection, land conservation,
coastal area protection, ecosystem management, etc. Material of the study are information
regarding natural resources management which available on research report, annual report,
text books and some articles from website. The site study is presented in Figure 1.

Results and Discussion
Forestry Management in Kepulauan Aru Regency
There is two Forest Management Units (FMU) in Kepulauan Aru Regency, namely
Wokam and Kobror – Trangan. Wokan FMU area is 61,012 Ha (production forest 57,992 Ha
and protected forest 3,020 Ha) with watershed area namely Wai Gaimar 69,160 ha. This
watershed is rather and very critical 17,866 Ha (25.83 %). In general, forest resources in this
FMU is good where primary and secondary forest in large area and open area or agriculture
activities in forest area still limited. This forest can be functioned as catchment area and it is
138 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
very important for local community to use water for their life and also for development of
traditional agriculture and pastures.
Kobror-Trangan FMU area is 117,614 Ha (production forest 114,781 Ha and
protected forest 2,833 Ha) with 4 watersheds i.e. Koba 3,910 Ha with rather and very critical
area is 3,168 Ha (81.02 %), Waekoba 10,095 Ha with rather and very critical area is 1,358 Ha
(13.45 %), Trangan 2,024 Ha and all of its watershed is very critical area 2,024 Ha (100 %)
and Kobror 2,024 Ha with rather and very critical area is 15 Ha (0.74 %). Protected forest lies
in all of small islands with dominance of forest mangrove and savana. Open area or critical
land usually lies in bigger island in southern and western FMU. This critical land is caused by
illegal cutting, shifting cultivation and forest fire, etc (Maluku Provincial Forestry, 2009).
In general, land cover of rather and very critical watershed is indicated with low
density forest and dominated with shrubs, bush, grasses and open area. Based on sattelite
imagery interpretation, mainly by using color composite of Landsat ETM+ band 542 year
2008, watershed area with rather and very critical in Aru archipelago can be recoqnized
easily. Open area without vegetation is indicated with color of red to brown, shrubs, bush and
grasses with soft green and dense forest with deep green. Furthermore, by using NDVI
(normalized difference vegetation index) approach or ratio between NIR-RED with
NIR+RED wavelengths, the land cover can be recoqnized well. The higher NDVI values
indicated more abundant, greener vegetation like dense forest and lower NDVI values
indicated grasses, shrubs, bush, bare soil, water, clouds due to lower reflectance values in the
NIR wavelengths. NDVI values for dense forest, rare forest, grass-shrubs-bush, bare soil and
water is 0.7-0.9; 0.5-0.6; 0.2-0.5; 0.1-0.2 and 0.0-0.1 respectively (Mardiatmoko, 2009).
NDVI are indicators of intensity of biomass (JARS, 1993) and it is important for REL
(reference of emission level) establishment mainly to support REDD+ project.
The main habitat at coastal area in Pulau-pulau Aru and Aru Utara Sub district is
ecosystem of forest mangrove, coral reef, seagrass and algae. Composition of forest
mangrove is Rhizophoraceae, Sonneratiaceae, Maliaceae, Myrsinaceae, Sterculiaceae,
Acanthaceae and Arecaceae. Sea weeds distribution is separated randomly in surrounding of
Aru archipelago. Agriculture management in Kepulauan Aru Regency
Potential areas for agriculture in Kepulauan Aru Regency is 1,200 ha in Kapron
island. Based on ecological small island, sector development of agriculture in Kepulauan Aru
Regency is not focused on wetland paddy. There is paddy production but from dryland which
average area harvested dryland paddy is very limited 20 ha/year. Area harvested of food crop
139 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
in year 2008 as follows maize 75 ha, cassava 243 ha, sweet potatoes 91 ha, peanuts 45 ha,
mung beans 43 ha, soybeans 0 ha, taro 88 ha. Beside this crops, area harvested, production
and yield rate of low land vegetables can be described as follows: chili area harvested 7 ha,
production 6 ton, yield rate 8.57 kw/ha; cucumber 2 ha, 7 ton, 35 kw/ha; egg pant 5 ha, 19
ton, 38 kw/ha; pulses 2 ha, 6 ton, 30 kw/ha; tomatoes 1ha, 3 ton, 30 kw/ha. The crops, area
harvested, production and yield rate of low land fruits as follows: avocados area harvested
0.35 ha, production 15 ton, yield rate 15 kw/ha; mangoes 25.57 ha, 2,661 ton, 26.61 kw/ha;
pepayas 1.05 ha, 364 ton, 36.40 kw/ha; bananas 5.28 ha, 649 ton, 64.9 kw/ha, pineapple 0.07
ha, 34 ton, 34 kw/ha and others (BPS-Statistics Indonesia, 2009).
Total area of agriculture activities in Kepulauan Aru Regency is not large and there is
no problem regarding land use and land tenure. The most important thing is agriculture area
expansion for the future should be planned well and wisely. Fisheries management in Kepulauan Aru Regency
Potential areas for fisheries and marine tourism in Kepulauan Aru Regency is high.
Based on ecological small island, sector development of fisheries in Kepulauan Aru Regency
is not focused on land area and production of inland aqua culture and open water fisheries but
in coastal area and its surroundings area. According to Kakisina et al (2010) Kepulauan Aru
Regency lies in Aru Sea and Arafura Sea and has high fisheries resources potency with its
biodiversity. Therefore fishery sector has become as leading sector and prime mover for
economical development in this region. Total marine water area which can be used as
cultivation area is 3,311.73 Km2 (seagrass 1,996 Km
2, fish 667 Km
2, sea cucumber 371
Km2, cockle shells and bivalve 278 Km
2 ). In year 2009, only 506,6947 Km
2 (15.30%) of
these area is used as cultivation activities i.e. Kobror, Koba, Maikor islands.
Number of fishery households is 969 households and non-powered fishing boats 231
units. Fish production and its value in year 2008 as follows: prawn 1,291.7 ton, IDR
17,682,380,000,-; skipjack 203.9 ton, IDR 1,223,572,000,-; indian mackarela 591.1 ton, IDR
1,182,180,000,- and others 8,179.5 ton, IDR 33,108,297,000,- (BPS-Statistics Indonesia,
2009). Kepulauan Aru Regency has many coastal area with beautifull beach and very
potensial to develop marine tourism or ecotourism, diving clubs, hand line, trolling and sport
fishing development.
Some problems regarding coastal area management is the damage or destruction of
productive coastal resources and fisheries. Coastal area are destroyed by mining of c type
excavation. Coral reefs are destroyed by construction or dredging, pollution, siltation and
dynamiting or poisoning for fish. Mangroves are killed off by dredging or filling, or by
140 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
changing essential patterns of water circulation and salinity. Location of coastal area and
coral reefs damage can be found mainly in western and eastern Wokam island and eastern
and southern Kobror island. Community perception on natural resources management
In general, perception of local community on resources management ussually can be
analyzed by using some questioner and interview. After that the survey result should be
continued by Focus Group Discussion (FGD). This analysis is used to measure the objectivity
of survey results which using questionare and interview. Arrangement of strategy for natural
resources management by local government and other stakeholders can be done by SWOT
analysis. SWOT analysis is a tool for auditing an organization and its environment. It is the
first stage of planning and helps marketers to focus on key issues. SWOT stands for strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Strengths and weaknesses are internal factors.
Opportunities and threats are external factors. Establishment of management concept priority
for natural resource potency can be used by using AHP (analytical hierarchy process). AHP is
an advanced technique that supports decision makers in structuring complex decisions,
quantifying intangible factors, and evaluating choices in multi-objective decision situations. It
is a comprehensive and rational decision making framework that provides a powerful
methodology for determining relative worth among a set of elements (Jayaswal et al., 2007).
It has particular application in group decision making and is used around the world in a wide
variety of decision situations, in fields such as government, business, industry, healthcare,
and education (Saaty & Kirti, 2008). Kakisina et al (2010) reported that policy priority for
management of Kepulauan Aru Regency potency was community and government based
management. In this case, the stakeholders agreed that management of natural resources
potency in Aru coastal area should be done together by goverment and local community as
first priority. Besides this report, strategy of management of coastal area potency on
Kepulauan Aru was collaborative strategy which involved all of stakeholders. This
collaboration must be implemented based on the role and competency from every
stakeholder. The management integration of forestry, agriculture and fisheries in small islands
Almost of all small islands in Kepulauan Aru Regency has damaged not only in high
land but also low land and coral reefs. It must be handled through intensive conservation but
financial support from goverment is very limited. In this case, the management integration of
forestry, agriculture and fisheries should be done through REDD+ program because
developed countries has commitment to support conservation fund. Actually, there is close
141 | I C S A F S - U N P A D
relationship between agriculture and REDD+. According to Scherr et al (2011) the trajectory
of agricultural development is a key determinant of the success of REDD+. The original
model of REDD was to pay landowners the opportunity costs of forgoing forest development.
Yet most agricultural production systems offer much higher financial benefits than natural
forests. Given low relative carbon prices and the likelihood that they will remain low relative
to agricultural options in the future, this payment model has limited scope. It is only relevant
in the small set of circumstances where deforestation is principally due to conversion to very-
low-value land uses like extensive grazing or small-scale subsistence food production and
where governance systems are sufficiently developed to manage payments over the long-
term. In most other cases, reducing deforestation requires more than shifting financial
incentives at the margin—it requires transformation of the land rights and land use system to
harmonize farm and forest policy. Thus successful REDD+ depends less on forestry strategies
than on agricultural development strategies that retain and sustain forests. Therefore
harmonizing agriculture, forest and fishery management in the design of REDD+ in
Kepulauan Aru Regency should be tried. It is possible to be done because the stakeholders
agreed that management of natural resources potency must be done together by goverment
and local community as first priority.
Conclusions
1. Small islands ecology in Kepulauan Aru Regency is more fragile, implementation of
sustainable agriculture, forest and fishery should be handled carefully and wisely. The
stakeholders agreed that management of natural resources potency in Aru coastal area
should be done together by goverment and local community as first priority. 2. The natural resources of Kepulauan Aru Regency is a very potential regency for fishery
development and fishery sector has become as leading sector and prime mover for
economical development in this region. Unfortunately, the low land and high land have
damaged by forest degradation, deforestation and others activities. 3. The damage area must be handled through intensive conservation but financial support
from goverment is very limited. In this case, the management integration of forestry,
agriculture and fisheries should be done through REDD+ program.
