Abstract

Telajakan and mixed gardens are land management systems in Bali. The existing plants are a combination of tree plants, shrubs, palms, bamboo and others by combining agricultural crops and or livestock. This practice is found in one land management unit to the landscape of rural agroecosystems. In the agroforestry system, this system is more of a family-based activity (household-based agroforestry). This study discusses and examines the value of plant species, as well as the benefits for the household level in Tabanan Bali. The study was conducted from January to June 2019 in Pinge Village, Tabanan Regency, Bali, which is a village that provides green space and the beauty of environmental aesthetics. Observation of various species of plants was carried out using Quick Biodiversity Survey (QBS) method, the complementary of the Rapid Agro Biodiversity Appraisal (RABA) method. The observations were carried out on 40 plots representing agroforestry land-use systems. The results showed that the biodiversity and species richness level belonged to the medium category. There are 55 plant species from a combination of agricultural and forest plants. The vegetation structure of Telajakan and mixed gardens guarantees a natural regeneration process. Telajakan and mixed gardens cause the development of commercial species with high economic value and fast-growing species. The plants used by the community for aesthetics, religious ceremonies, food, medicines, building materials, and household utensils. Most of the purposes of use are for green open spaces and environmental aesthetics, subsistence consumption. The results of other plants that are useful for commercial purposes are special crops that are cultivated intensively. The community believes that by observing the environment and the aesthetics of nature is the realization of worship in the relationship between humans, nature and God (Tri Hita Karana).
