This research was conducted in the Bolapapu watershed which is located in the middle of the Miu sub-watershed and is located in Kulawi District, Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi Province. The results of the research show that in various forms of land use using plant management methods (C) and conservation techniques, namely soil management (P), there are several things that can be concluded: (1) changes in plant management factors on each land unit can prevent the level of danger of erosion and can increase land productivity; (2) conservation measures, namely soil management (P), can change the physical shape of the length and slope of the slope and inhibit the rate of runoff; (3) in land rehabilitation efforts using plant and soil management methods in relation to erosivity which can change the physical form of erodibility; (4) land rehabilitation planning in the Bolapapu watershed can not only reduce the level of erosion hazard or increase land productivity, but can improve the economic conditions of the community through plant management. economically valuable actions through conservation techniques.</p> Muhammad Natsir Uswah Hasanah Anthon Monde ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-03-31 2023-03-31 11 1 1 12 10.22487/ms26866579.2023.v11.i1.pp1-12 Occupancy of Anoa (Bubalus spp) in Dako Mountain Nature Reserve Tolitoli Regency http://mrtg.untad.ac.id/index.php/MitraSains/article/view/387 <p>Kerusakan habitat dan perburuan anoa menyebabkan penurunan populasi yang akan berdampak pada penurunan populasi anoa yang berujung pada kepunahan satwa ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat okupansi habitat anoa dan faktor-faktor lingkungan yang mempengaruhinya di Cagar Alam Gunung Dako Kabupaten Tolitoli. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei pemodelan okupansi spesies yang kemudian dianalisis untuk mengetahui okupansi anoa dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhinya dengan menggunakan aplikasi PRESENCE (MacKenzie et al. 2002; MacKenzie et al. 2006). Teknik pembuatan unit sampel/grid dilakukan dengan membagi peta peruntukan Cagar Alam Gunung Dako menjadi 62 grid dengan ukuran 2.000 m x 2.000 m (400 ha). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anoa menempati sekitar 67,59% hingga 85% habitat di Cagar Alam Gunung Dako, Kabupaten Tolitoli. Tiga model kovariat lingkungan yang terbaik dan berkorelasi positif menunjukkan bahwa anoa lebih menyukai daerah yang jauh dari kawasan budidaya dan juga jauh dari jalan dan tutupan hutan primer yang luas.</p> Yusuf Sulo Sri Ningsih Malombassang ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-03-31 2023-03-31 11 1 13 27 10.22487/ms26866579.2023.v11.i1.pp13-27 Edu-Eco-Tourism Development at The Natural Tourism Object Lore Lindu National Park Tambing http://mrtg.untad.ac.id/index.php/MitraSains/article/view/398 <p>The purpose of this study were to develop a strategy for developing the Tambing Lake Nature Tourism Object with an environmental education perspective (edu-ecotourism) for students and university students. The research was conducted through field observations, documentation and interviews which were equipped with a list of questions (questionnaires). Determination of respondents was done intentionally (purposive sampling). Furthermore, data analysis, to determine the feasibility of the Telaga Tambing Nature Tourism Object that is able to support the concept of edu-ecotourism, used the Analysis of the Operational Area for Natural Tourism Objects and Attractions (ADO-ODTWA) while to determine the strategy for developing the Tambing Lake Nature Tourism Object with environmental education perspective&nbsp; (edu-ecotourism) for Students and University Students using the analysis of Strenghts, Opportunities, Weaknesses, and Threats (SWOT). The results of the analysis of determining the priority strategy for the development of Telaga Tambing Nature Tourism Objects with Environmental Education/Edu-Ecotourism For Students and Students are the SO strategy, namely (1) maintenance and improvement of Edu-ecotourism-based facilities and infrastructure, (2) make conservation education tour packages for students and Students, (3) establish Conservation Cadre.</p> Halil Subastian Adam Malik Arief Sudhartono ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-03-31 2023-03-31 11 1 28 38 10.22487/ms26866579.2023.v11.i1.pp28-38 Dynamics of Bali Cattle Population in The Northern of Parigi Moutong Regency http://mrtg.untad.ac.id/index.php/MitraSains/article/view/399 <p>This study aims to analyze the dynamics of the Bali cattle population in the northern part of Parigi Moutong Regency, this study has been carried out in three districts, namely Bolano, Bolano Lambunu and Moutong for two months, from March to May 2022. The method used in this study is a purposive method. sampling. The parameters observed in this study are the income rate consisting of the annual birth rate, the annual purchase rate, the annual cattle subsidy/assistance and the expenditure rate including the mortality rate (mortality), slaughter and sales as well as natural growth/Natural Increase (NI). The results showed that, the income rate for the birth rate to the mother was 54.03% and the birth rate to the population was 22.41% from 362 calves born, while the purchase rate was 6.32% from 102 heads and assistance was 6.13%. of 100 heads. The expenditure rate for the sales level is 7.18% of the 116 birds sold, while the slaughter rate is 2.48% from 40 birds, the mortality rate to the broodstock is 1.94% from 670 birds and the mortality rate to the population is 0.8% from 1615. cattle, so the number in the NI value is 21.61%.</p> Indah Mayu Nita Yohan Rusiyantono Amiruddin Dg Malewa ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-03-31 2023-03-31 11 1 39 45 10.22487/ms26866579.2023.v11.i1.pp39-45 The Catch of Pelagic Fish in Purse Seine Fisheries is Related to Oceanographic Parameters in the Water of the Makassar Strait Tolitoli Regency http://mrtg.untad.ac.id/index.php/MitraSains/article/view/400 <p>This research aims to analyze oceanographic parameters and the number of pelagic fish caught in purse seine fisheries in the Makassar Strait, Toli-Toli Regency. The research was carried out using purposive sampling with purse seine catch data collected at 30 FADs (as research sites). Oceanographic data includes sea surface temperature, currents, pH, dissolved oxygen, and waves collected in situ. Meanwhile, nitrate and phosphate samples were analyzed at the Agricultural Science Study Program Laboratory, Tadulako University. Results of analysis of the composition of pelagic fish species caught in purse seine catches in February 2021 (4 types of fish are classified as economically important fish and the other three types are by-catch). In order of highest catches, they were kites (18,632 kg; 24 FADs), skipjack (15,203 kg; 27 FADs), tuna (4,290 kg; 12 FADs), mackerel tuna (3,060 kg; 4 FADs), tuna (4,500 kg; 1 FAD). ), katombo (253 kg; 2 FADs), and rattan (734 kg; 1 FAD). Close relationship and influence Parameters that have the strongest relationship and influence on fluctuations in pelagic fish catches in purse seine fisheries in the Makassar Strait are salinity, dissolved oxygen and nitrate.</p> Novita Dewi Iriani A.
