Abstract

Mangrove ecosystem is the largest habitat in the Sembilang National Park, Banyuasin district, South Sumatra, Indonesia where the pond activity has been the main cause of mangrove degradation. Mangrove restoration program is planned to be held in the Sembilang National Park to restore the mangrove areas that are currently managed as fish pond, and some of these activities will be funded through funding assistance from JICA Jakarta. In order to implement the restoration program, we have conducted studies on the location of the prospective restoration. The review includes assessment of meteorological conditions, tides, vegetation, mangrove composition, soil, water, and socio-economic community around it. This study was carried out from October 2010 to February 2011. Sample of mangrove vegetation was collected by using method of plot line transect. Mangrove vegetation density, relative density, frequency, relative frequency, basal area, dominance, relative dominance and importance value index were analysed. Mangrove in greenbelt area of Banyuasin Peninsula consisted of 9 species of true mangrove (Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh., Avicennia alba Blume, Avicennia officinalis L., Rhizophora apiculata Blume, Rhizophora mucronata Lam., Bruguiera gymnorrhiza (L.) Lam., Bruguiera sexangula (Lour.) Poir., Sonneratia alba J. Sm., and Excoecaria agallocha L. A. marina was the dominant species that had importance value index was 72.88-300.00 for tree level and 0.00- 300.00 for sapling level. R. apiculata and R. mucronata that was planted on ex-ponds grew well. Mangrove restoration plan of about 200 hectares has been arranged based on the current mangrove condition and other related data.
