Mutaqin AZ, Fatharani M, Iskandar J, Partasasmita R. 2018. Utilization of Araceae by local community in Cisoka Village, Cikijing Sub-district, Majalengka District, West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 640-651. Various species of Araceae plants are widely used by the tribes of Sunda as food. However, cultivation is increasingly rare inWest Java region, and is found in some places only. One area where many people still grow Araceae plants is Cisoka Village, Cikijing Sub-district, Majalengka District, West Java Province, Indonesia. This paper aims to explain the reason for the cultivation of Araceae by the local community in the Village of Cisoka. This study used a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, but the former was used more than the latter The primary data were collected through structured and semi-structured interviews, participant observation, exploration, and plant sample collection. The data were analyzed descriptively with emic and ethic approaches. The results of the study showed that 20 species and 13 varieties (landraces) of Araceae plants were used by the community. The parts of plant traditionally used by the commumity were tuber, petiole, and leaf. The utilization of the Araceae plants were categorized into 4 main functions, namely, as food, medicine, decoration, and fish feed. The species of Araceae were commonly cultivated in various agroecosystem types, mainly home gardens, gardens, and rice fields. Keywords: Araceae, Cisoka Village, utilization INTRODUCTION interrelated with various natural resources. Each village ecosystem has various local potential natural resources. Indonesia has been known as a country having high The rural people have been determined by availability of diversity of ethnic groups (cf. Sastrapradja 2010; Wijaya et the local natural resources (Kurniawan and Asih 2012). al. 2014; Iskandar 2016). At least 159 ethnic groups have Plants are considered as the main natural resources been recorded throughout Indonesian islands. These essentially needed to support the human life because Indonesian local communities have various cultures and humans are not able to produce self-generated natural sources of household income. Indeed, various local plants ingredients such as those produced by plants to support have been utilized by the local people which is strongly their daily lives. The plants are commonly used by people related to economic, spiritual values, culture, health, for various purposes, including food, clothes, indigenous cosmetic, and medicine (Prananingrum 2007). According textiles, medicines, poisoning materials, building materials, to Maffi (2004), Ellen (2006), and Partasasmita et al. craft materials, and dye materials (Polunin 1994; Balick (2017), cultural diversity and biodiversity have a strong and Cox 1996; Iskandar et al. 2017; Partasasmita et al. correlation in various aspects of the bio-cultural system. 2017). The Araceae or talas family has been recognized as The level of local knowledge of utilization of various one of the largest monocot families and it is widely used by plants by each local community group is determined by local communities. Various plants categorized as the family many factors, including the level of differences in culture of Araceae have played important roles in social and and local condition. This is the basis of ethnobiology economic functions such as daun sente (Alocasia studies (cf.

In addition, several species are used as the local communities have strong interrelationship with food, aesthetic, and rituals. Leaves, stems, and tubers are their environment components. To fulfill their daily needs, predominantly used as food source and medicinal materials the local communities need various biotic and abiotic (Heyne 1987). components, such as food, oxygen, and water, as primary Cisoka, is one of the villages in the Sub-district of human needs. They also have secondary needs, including Cikijing, District of Majalengka, West Java Province, communication among the community members, education having diverse species of Araceae.

Three The home garden, mixed garden and talun systems can aspects are discussed in this paper, namely the species and be categorized as traditional ecosystems. Because those landraces, utilization of plants, and cultivation of the agroecosystems are predominantly planted with mixed plants. annual and perennial plants, their vegetation structure is similar to that of the forest vegetation. As a result, they also have various ecological functions, including hydrological MATERIALS AND METHODS function, protection of soil from erosion, provision of wildlife habitats, and conservation of local plant genetic or Study area gene pool. This study was carried out in the Village of Cisoka. The rice fields of the Cisoka Village can be divided into This area is situated in the Sub-district of Cikijing, the two types, namely the irrigated rice field system and the District of Majalengka, the Province of West Java, rain-fed rice field. The irrigated rice fields are Indonesia (Figure 1). predominantly cultivated with rice two or three times in a On the basis of the agricultural land use systems, the year, while the rain-fed rice fields are commonly planted Village of Cisoka has several agroecosystem types, namely with rice only one or two times a year. In dry season, the the home garden (pekarangan), garden (kebun) and mixed rain-fed rice fields are traditionally cultivated with non-rice garden (kebun campuran), talun, and rice fields (cf. crops, such as corn, onion, and sweet potatoes. Iskandar and Iskandar 2011). Home garden is the land On the basis of tradition, the plants of the Araceae surrounding the house commonly planted with mixed family, such as talas, have been planted by the people of annual and perennial crops, having various functions, Cisokan, in different agroecosystems, including namely providing staple foods, traditional medicines, homegarden, garden, mixed garden, and rain-fed rice spices, vegetables, fruits, and ritual materials and adding fields, particularly in dry season. aesthetic views.

  • A Review of Alocasia (Araceae: Colocasieae) for Thailand Including a Novel Species and New Species Records from South-West Thailand
    THAI FOR. BULL. (BOT.) 36: 1–17. 2008. A review of Alocasia (Araceae: Colocasieae) for Thailand including a novel species and new species records from South-West Thailand PETER C. BOYCE* ABSTRACT. A review of Alocasia in Thailand is presented. One new species (A. hypoleuca) and three new records (A. acuminata, A. hypnosa & A. perakensis) are reported. A key to Alocasia in Thailand is presented and the new species is illustrated. INTRODUCTION Alocasia is a genus of in excess of 100 species of herbaceous, laticiferous, diminutive to gigantic, usually robust herbs. The genus has recently been revised for New Guinea (Hay, 1990), Australasia (Hay & Wise, 1991), West Malesia and Sulawesi (Hay, 1998), the Philippines (Hay, 1999) while post main-treatment novelties have been described for New Guinea (Hay, 1994) Borneo (Hay, Boyce & Wong, 1997; Hay, 2000; Boyce, 2007) & Sulawesi (Yuzammi & Hay, 1998). Currently the genus is least well understood in the trans-Himalaya (NE India to SW China) including the northern parts of Burma, Thailand, Lao PDR and Vietnam with only the flora of Bhutan (Noltie, 1994) partly covering this range. In the absence of extensive fieldwork the account presented here for Thailand can at best be regarded as provisional. STRUCTURE & TERMINOLOGY Alocasia plants are often complex in vegetative and floral structure and some notes on their morphology (based here substantially on Hay, 1998) are useful to aid identification. The stem of Alocasia, typically of most Araceae, is a physiognomically unbranched sympodium. The number of foliage leaves per module is variable between and within species and individuals, but during flowering episodes in some species it may be reduced to one.

G. DON (TALYAN) CHARITO V. MOLLEJON, JAYSON E. TIBE CHAPTER 1 PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Nutritional content of every food is important for us to ensure a proper diet. Talyan is not common here in Northern samar and also it is not popular, it is used as binagol in Tacloban city, it served as food in many Nortehanon. With the country ever population many people cannot eat properly like rice and some other food. Many farmers need to eat root crops for them to survive. Talyan (Alocasia macrorrhizos) is a nutritious food. Many people need to maintain good health. GSJ© 2019 www.globalscientificjournal.com GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2019 ISSN 2320-9186 585 Nutritional awareness of every food has important role to our health. It gives us knowledge about the food we eat and can sustain the balance diet needed for our body. Nutrition is essential for our health, in other country and in the Philippines since it is over populated, hence people cannot eat proper food and some farmers need to eat root crops for them to survive. This plant is grown under “upland” (none flooded) and “wetland” (flooded) as seen everywhere that is why the researcher was interested to study. Studying this plant was a big contribution to our country for the people that didn’t have money to buy some food like rice.

  • Wild Food Plants of Remote Oceania
    Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae Journal homepage: pbsociety.org.pl/journals/index.php/asbp INVITED REVIEW Received: 2012.09.01 Accepted: 2012.10.12 Published electronically: 2012.11.22 Acta Soc Bot Pol 81(4):371–380 DOI: 10.5586/asbp.2012.034 Wild food plants of Remote Oceania Will C. McClatchey* Botanical Research Institute of Texas, 1700 University Drive, Fort Worth, Texas 76107, USA Department of Botany, University of Hawai’i at Manoa, Honolulu, Hawai’i 96822, USA Environmental Studies Program, Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, Texas 76107, USA Abstract Agricultural societies partly depend upon wild foods. Relationships between an agricultural society and its wild foods can be explored by examining how the society responds through colonization of new lands that have not been previously inhabited. The oldest clear example of this phenomenon took place about 5000 years ago in the tropical Western Pacific at the “boundary” interface between Near and Remote Oceania. An inventory of wild and domesticated food plants used by people living along “the remote side of” that interface has been prepared from the literature. This was then assessed for the roles of plants at the time of original colonization of Remote Oceania. The majority of species are wild foods, and most of these are used as leafy vegetables and fruits. The wild food plants mostly serve as supplements to domesticated species, although there are a few that can be used as substitutes for traditional staples. Keywords: Oceania, wild food plants, colonization, agriculture Introduction implication is that humans brought wild plant materials to their homes or processing sites, much as squirrels or fruit bats Human-plant co-evolutionary relationships have been might do, and then consumed less than all of the material col- documented for processes of wild plant food domestication lected, discarding material (seeds or other living parts) that into socially critical crops [1,2].
