TINGKAT KERUSAKAN HUTAN MANGROVE PANTAI DI DESA MALAKOSA KECAMATAN BALINGGI KABUPATEN PARIGI MOUTONG

Abstract: The main cause of mangrove destruction was due to land convertion to housing, aquaculture, illegal loging.  Those  uncontroled  activities  was  neglect  to  consider  the  environmental  preservation. Malakosa is one of the village which has mangrove forest, however most of the forest was declining in number, it is therefore important research on the extent of damage to be done in order to manage the mangrove forest.
