Abstract

The upstream of the Bedadung watershed is a catchment area. Now Bedadung watershed does not function optimally because of illegal logging and the change in function of protected forest to production forest. There was an increase in erosion, landslide, and flood. This research aims to identify conservation activities and Identify the roles of stakeholders in governance upstream Bedadung watershed. The result of the first purpose is conservation activities in the fourth Sub-watershed with exploratory, descriptive analysis: (1) Jompo Sub-watershed (coffee plants, teak plants, and terraces), cover crops, DAM controller, (2) Antrokan Sub-watershed such as durian terracing, use of organic mulch, sengon plants with elephant grass, (3) Rempangan Sub-watershed, such as planting cover crops, coffee, and lamtoro terracing, (sengon, coffee, and terrace), reforestation with matoah, sengon, durian, avocado, petai, guava, (4) Rembangan Sub-watershed, such as grass strips, cover crops, (lamtoro, coffee, and terrace). The results of the second purpose are to identify roles, relationships, influence, and strength of stakeholders in the implementation of conservation governance using The Four Rs analysis and stakeholder strength analysis. The position and function of each stakeholder managing the upstream Bedadung Watershed, namely (1) LMDH and KTH as (Subject), (2) Branch of the Jember Regional Forestry Service, Perum Perhutani, and BPDAS Brantas Sampean as (Key Player), (3) Dinas Environment of Jember Regency, Bappeda Jember, Department of Public Works Bina Marga of Jember Regency, and Department of Agriculture of Jember as (Context Setters), (4) Brantas Sampean Watershed Forum as (Crowd).

Highlights

  • Pramono (2021) stated that Indonesia has 458 watersheds consisting of 60 watersheds in severely critical condition, 222 watersheds in a moderate critical state, and 176 watersheds with potentially urgent needs

  • The purpose of this research was to identify conservation activities in the upstream area using an exploratory, descriptive analysis and to identify the role of stakeholders in the governance of upstream Bedadung Watershed using The Four Rs analysis, while the power and influence of stakeholders use an analysis of stakeholder strengths

  • This research is located on the upstream Bedadung Watershed, precisely in four sub-watersheds, namely Rempangan, Rembangan, Jompo, and Antrokan sub-watersheds

Summary

Introduction

Pramono (2021) stated that Indonesia has 458 watersheds consisting of 60 watersheds in severely critical condition, 222 watersheds in a moderate critical state, and 176 watersheds with potentially urgent needs. Forest that usually can be a water catchment area, currently is not functioning optimally (Arsyad and Ernan, 2008). Regulation Number 26/2009 concerning Spatial Planning, explains that the status of vegetated land use is at least 30% of the Jurnal Pengelolaan Sumber Daya Alam dan Lingkungan 11(4): 662-676 watershed area. Watersheds that do not function optimally will cause problems, such as increased erosion, landslides, sedimentation, and flooding (Kartika et al, 2016). The impact of reduced forest land cover is erosion, flooding, and landslides (Rosyidie, 2013). Rohman (2018) shows that the erosion value in the upstream Bedadung is 92.57 tons/ha/year. Ministry of Forestry (2013) explained that the erosion value of 92.57 tons/ha/year is included in the moderate erosion category
