Abstract
Biodiversity is an abundance of various types of landscape resources on the face of the earth. The sustainability of biodiversity in a landscape is inseparable from the role of humans living. Various cultures have knowledge, practices, wisdom, and other cultural representations in utilizing and preserving the landscape resources. Urug Village is one of the traditional Sundanese villages that still maintain its local wisdom. Preservation of biodiversity and environmental management in traditional villages are based on local wisdom. It can be used as a reference for landscape management to preserve biodiversity in their environment. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the level of biodiversity in indigenous villages and non-indigenous villages and to find out the correlation between biodiversity and local wisdom, and to formulate local wisdom-based biodiversity management plans. The results of the biodiversity index calculation indicate that the level of biodiversity in Urug Indigenous Village is higher with index value 1.96. Cipatat village has a lower index of 1.34. Both of these biodiversity indexes are in the medium category. But the results of the T-test show that these two indexes are significantly different. It can be validly concluded that the biodiversity index in Urug Indigenous Village is higher than in Cipatat Village. Logistic regression was carried out to determine the correlation of biodiversity index with local wisdom. The results of the logistic regression analysis showed that there was a positive relationship between the biodiversity index and local wisdom. The recommendations for biodiversity management were formulated through SWOT analysis. This analysis resulted in three main recommendations for biodiversity management strategies based on local wisdom.
