Coral
reefs are one of a very important resource for the country Indonesia. Total
area of the coral reefs in the country ranged from 50,000 to 100,000 km2 in area, making it one
of the widest in the world (Bentley, 1998). Coral reefs of Indonesia are very
diversified and holds a very important role in maintaining the balance of the
environment and contribute to physical stability on the neighboring coastline
surrounding it, therefore it must be protected and developed continuously for
the benefit of both the current generation and future generations. In this
country, the reef is also utilized for various human interests such as
construction of buildings, traditional medicine and as a decoration of the
Aquarium (Bentley, 1998).
The
seribu islands ecosystem is built by coral reefs and coastal ecosystems became
the principal of the seribu islands. According to some experts, the complexity
of the seribu islands Coral Reef belongs to the young, the newly formed around
9000 years ago along the coral reefs of Belitung and Karimun Java (Park et al,
1992 in Tomascik et al 1997). Seribu islands coral reef condition is of
concern, especially in the islands adjacent to the hard coral cover (5%). The
largest portion of damage to coral reefs was caused by human behavior such as
stockpiling of mining waste and sand and coral (Estradivari et al 2007) which
can reduce the number of species and populations of organisms coral reef
ecosystems (Timothy et al. 2009), However, increased a little percentage of
closing hard corals and decreasing mortality index proved that coral reefs in
the seribu islands are able to recover again when the pressure is reduced and
even eliminated (Estradivari et al 2007). There are alternatives to reduce the
dependence of the fishermen on the reef resources such as developing artificial
reef (artificial reef), developed the technique of closure area, translocation
of corals and transplant coral (coral transplantation) (Westmacott, 2000).
Coral
transplantation has been investigated as one alternative way to maintain the
sustainability of coral reefs. These methods include planting and growth of
coral colonies with a fragmentation method in which the colony was taken from a
certain colonies (Harriot's parent & amp; Fisk 1988). Results of the transplant
coral fragments has its own advantages when compared with larvae naturally due
to the larger size, have survival rates as well as high growth (Sousa 1983
Bowden-Kerby in 2003).
Coral transplantation
activity in the seribu islands by Sadarun in 1997 that is grown on the net
(Soedharma & amp; Subhan 2007 in Aditiyana 2011). Transplant the more
encouraged when the seribu islands National Park (TNKpS) established by the
Ministry of forestry SK Menhut No. 6310/Kpts-II/2002 dated July 13, 2002 (Yusri
et al 2009 in Estradivari et al 2009). And since 2002, the Directorate General
of forest protection and nature conservation (PHKA) require companies that
conduct trade decorative corals from nature to transplant coral
aquaculture/propagation/ornamental and the policies stated in the decision of
the business license its trade (Timothy et al. 2009)
In 2003 the company
bring together TNKpS Hall ornamental corals (private) with the fishermen that
ever taking coral from the reef Rehabilitation programs in the natural and Protective
function of seribu islands National Park Region independently by the community.
Both sides dihimbau to cooperate with an agreement already agreed by fishermen
and businessmen to manage the coral aquaculture (Rani 2007).
Formulation of the Problem
Damage to coral reef ecosystems
that have already reached alarming levels causes tercetusnya one of the
rehabilitation activities at the same time can bring economic benefits to the
local communities of coral aquaculture. Coral aquaculture activities in the
waters of subdivisions of Panggang that has been running since 2003 still
requires further observation regarding the operations. Ecological and
social-economic factors contributed greatly to the sustainability of these
activities, because both of these components are related to each other. And
that the role of the community should be noted with respect to the continuity
of the activities of the coral aquaculture is very significant because it has
roles that can have a direct impact to the environment.
Sustainable management and smooth
running an environmentally friendly supply chain in theory will positively
impact ecosystem sustainability of coral reef itself and can improve the
welfare of the local community. The management pattern of cultivating coral in
Kepulauan Seribu, especially in
Villages, involving Baked right into fishing-fishing around. The community was
given the freedom to set up and manage existing resources around them with
provisions that have been made by the local government. These provisions came
into force with the goal of keeping environmental sustainability can be
maintained and can provide benefits that are as big as possible as long as
possible for the community around it.
However, the implementation of the
management in the field today are still far from a plan on paper. Many factors
that affect this, ranging from natural factors that are difficult to predict
until the behavior of the man himself. It is extremely difficult to arouse the
public to consistently keep the resources that they have for the sake of the
common good. There are still some persons who prefer personal interests.
Meanwhile, the Government was still just going on a convoluted bureaucracy as
well as charges that complicate the society distributes the resources they have
acquired, as a result of the supply chain can not run with optimal and can be
detrimental to some parties, in particular the community. Weak law enforcement
and a lack of awareness of the related parties is one of the roots of the
problem are very basic which can lead to poor management, What if there was a
plan of sustainable management. As has been outlined above, the pattern of
cultivating coral in the management of the village Bake anything remains to be
researched further, such as the ability of the Government and the local
community to cooperate in managing the activities of cultivation of ornamental
rocks in the waters of subdivisions of panggang. Therefore I need to know what
are the respective roles of the stakeholders so that it will know how to form
the management of ornamental bivalve aquaculture has been running all along.
In this study also examined the
reefs supply chain ranging from farmers to fishermen in the scope of national
distributors. It is important to know how to researched the market demand with
supply. The research will be continued to the analysis of the environmental impact
of the supply chain that has been around, in hopes of teridentifikasinya the
burden to be borne by the environment on aquaculture activities reef. Of course
it is absolutely essential to the continuation of sustainable management.
