Abstract

While results of many mangrove rehabilitation efforts have not been optimal due to various factors, the rate of mangrove forest deforestation remains high in Indonesia. This research was designed to test the principle “planting certain mangrove seedlings on suitable habitat would be survived”. The test was based on assessment of six locations in Bolaang Mongondow Selatan Regency where mangrove rehabilitation programs were implemented. This assessment was conducted by using a spot check method to analysis any variables associated with plantation area feasibility, and the use of participative approach to collect additional informations. Results from this study confirmed that mangrove seedlings has to be planted on the right habitat, and that the implemented rehabilitation programs have followed a try and error or speculative approach, and have not been supported by sufficient technical and theoretical competencies. Keywords: artifisial plantation, natural regeneration, mangrove, rehabilitation
