Abstract
Birds have an important role in the ecosystem, including as environmental indicators, natural pest controls, and tourist attractions. The existence of birds in a habitat type certainly plays an important role both ecologically and economically. Research that shows the ecological and economic potential of bird species in oil palm plantations is still not widely done. Therefore, research is needed to be able to show the potential and variation of bird species diversity in oil palm plantations. This research was conducted at PT Bina Sawit Makmur (PT BSM) on Desember 2019. The method used was a line transect that was carried out on five different land covers simultaneously. The results showed that a total of 28 species were found. High Conservation Value (HCV) land cover has the highest diversity, richness, and species similarity index values. The potential possessed by bird species in various types of land cover includes natural pest control, economic value animals, and environmental indicators.
