Income of women whose jobs were to sort eucalyptus leaves after the COVID-19 pandemic

Buru Regency is the primary hub for producing eucalyptus oil, a highly valued commodity in the region. The oil extracted from the eucalyptus epidemic plant possesses antiseptic, antibacterial, and antifungal characteristics. Amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, numerous industries require it as a fundamental component of pharmaceuticals. An essential factor in the eucalyptus oil production process is the presence of eucalyptus leaves. Therefore, leaf-sorting workers, including women, are required to ensure this availability. However, in reality, the daily lives of eucalyptus leaf massagers are characterized by challenging economic conditions and a socio-economic environment that lags behind workers in other sectors. This study aims to examine and investigate the roles and work patterns of employed women and the strategies they employ to ensure the consistent flow of household income. The research employed a qualitative methodology with a phenomenological approach. A total of 24 informants were purposefully selected based on their involvement in achieving the research objectives. The results indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the circumstances of women who collect leaves and rely heavily on eucalyptus trees as a natural resource. Physical adaptation strategies are the preferred methods used to fulfill household requirements. Implementing physical adaptations does not deter women leaf-sorters from continuing their work. Their commitment to meeting their basic needs significantly motivates them to persist in their role as leaf sorters. The income of women engaged in sorting eucalyptus leaves in their households during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PEMETAAN TEMATIK KESESUAIAN LAHAN BUDIDAYA RUMPUT LAUT PADA PERAIRAN TELUK KAYELI KABUPATEN BURU

Background: Seaweed is widely cultivated in coastal areas of Indonesia, one of which can be found in Kayeli Bay, Buru Regency. One of the problems faced by farmers in cultivating seaweed in this area is that there is no division of suitable areas for cultivation land in the form of thematic maps, especially using physical-chemical parameters of waters. Method: This activity includes several stages, namely location survey, data collection or collection and preparation of a database. Measurements of physical and chemical parameters of waters are carried out directly in the field (in situ) and in the laboratory (ex situ). The measurement parameters include temperature, brightness, wave height, current speed, pH, salinity, DO, nitrate and phosphate. To create a thematic map of land suitability, the ArcGis application was used. Results: Most of the physical and chemical parameters of the waters are still suitable for seaweed cultivation, except for temperature and phosphate. The results of land suitability evaluation/analysis based on water physical-chemical parameters produce two land suitability categories, namely suitable (S2) and very suitable (S1). The category corresponds to an area of ​​110.2 ha or 29% and very corresponds to an area of ​​269.8 ha or 71%. Conclusion: The thematic map of Kayeli Bay waters, Buru Regency shows that the suitability of seaweed cultivation land is divided into two categories, namely suitable at 29% and very suitable at 71%. However, the temperature and phosphate parameters at the time of measurement were in the category not suitable for seaweed cultivation.

Variabilitas musiman terhadap hasil tangkapan Tuna Madidihang (Thunnus albacares)

Fishermen in North Buru often depend on seasonal changes in tuna madidihang abundance to plan their fishing operations. However, a more comprehensive understanding of how this seasonal variability affects catches and its implications for fisheries management is still an important research subject. The research was conducted in Wailihang Village, Waplau District, North Buru Regency, between October and December 2022. The observational method was used for this study, where available and precise time series data owned by the Indonesian Community and Fisheries Foundation (MDPI) was collected. The collected data is the number of catch productions (kg) and the total length of fish (cm) from each haul. Yellowfin tuna production tends to fluctuate, with the highest catch (CPUE) occurring in September (63.8%) and the lowest in June (34.2%). The west season and east seasons have a total catch of 556 fish (45.42%), with 382 fish (31.21%) caught during the east season and 174 fish (14.22%) caught during the west season. The distribution of fish length varies in the east season compared to the west season.

Underwater Acoustic Propagation using Monterey-Miami Parabolic Equation in Shallow Water Kayeli Bay Buru Distric

Indonesia's geographical position is an advantage compared to other countries, both in terms of geoeconomics, geopolitics and geostrategy. For this reason, it is necessary to develop and use acoustic methods to describe underwater features, carry out underwater communications or to measure oceanographic variables at sea. This research was intended to provide an analytical and visual graphical description with the aim that it can be used for various purposes both in the research, military and other marine fields, as well as to analyze the influence of sediment and different frequencies on acoustic propagation patterns in shallow waters of Kayeli Bay. This research was conducted using CTD data from Kayeli Bay, which is a body of water in Buru Regency, Maluku Province and is located between 3° 15' 55'' – 3° 22' 50" S and 127° 01'35" – 127° 01' 35 "E, using the Monterey-Miami parabolic equation method using 4 types of sediment and 3 different frequencies as model input. From the results of this research it can be concluded that the propagation of sound waves in shallow seas is greatly influenced by the type of sediment and frequenty used. Changes in acoustic impedance at the bottom of the water and within the water column can significantly influence the behavior of acoustic waves in shallow water environments, and accurate acoustic impedance data are critical for effective ray tracing modelling.
