PENDAPATAN PETANI DAN KEANEKARAGAMAN TANAMAN PADA BERBAGAI POLA USAHA WANATANI DI SUB DAS MINRALENG HULU KABUPATEN MAROS
Abstract: The plant diversity
using shanon index and the farmer income level were investigated in this study.
This information is very important to contribute some improvement of
agroforestry pattern related to the farmer welfare and the ecological
productivity in upperstream Minraleng Sub Watershed. Results show that the
diversity index of mix public forest was higher than the other patterns,
eventhough it has a lower contribution compared to paddyfield. Paddyfield and
unirigated-land have a higher contribution to farmer income, but they have
lower diversity indexes. In contrast, candlenut monoculture and mix garden have
higher diversity indexes and lower contribution to farmer income. A plant
diversification under candlenut stands and an economical plant intensification
on mix garden were needed to increase the farmer income and the diversity of
economic plants.
