  • (Pygathrix Cinerea) at Kon Ka Kinh National Park, Vietnam
    Vietnamese Journal of Primatology (2012) vol. 2 (1), 25-35 The feeding behaviour and phytochemical food content of grey-shanked douc langurs ( Pygathrix cinerea ) at Kon Ka Kinh National Park, Vietnam Nguyen Thi Tinh, Ha Thang Long, Bui Van Tuan, Tran Huu Vy and Nguyen Ai Tam Frankfurt Zoological Society, Vietnam Primate Conservation Programme, K83/10D Trung Nu Vuong Street, Hai Chau, Danang, Vietnam Corresponding author: Ha Thang Long <[email protected]> Key words: Pygathrix cinerea , grey-shanked douc langur, feeding behaviour, diet, nutrition, Kon Ka Kinh National Park Summary The grey-shanked douc langur 1 is a critically endangered and endemic leaf-eating primate to Vietnam. The population of the species is decreasing and highly fragmented due to hunting pressure and loss of habitat. The species is restricted to several provinces in the Central Highlands. Kon Ka Kinh National Park is home of less than 250 individuals. Currently, there is insufficient understanding about the feeding behaviour and phytochemical content in food selection among the species. This study was conducted in Kon Ka Kinh National Park from February 2009 to June 2010. We collected 212 hours of feeding behaviour data. Grey schanked douc langurs ate 135 plant species of 44 plant families during the study period. The plant species Pometia pinnata is the most preferred item. We collected 33 plant samples from eaten species for phytochemical analysis which revealed that protein comprised of 11.4% of dry matter, lipids 2.6%, minerals 5.0%, sugar 4.9%, starch 12.8%, and Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF) 40.8%. Protein in leaves is higher than in whole fruits: 12.8% and 8.3% respectively.

  • Extension Guideline
    EXTENSION GUIDELINE Introduction of experience of extension models in participatory sustainable agricultural development in ethnic minority areas (Mang Yang district, Gia Lai Province) The Project on Capacity Development of Participatory Agricultural and Rural Development for Poverty Reduction in the Central Highlands, supported by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) August, 2013 Introduction Communication between farmers and local officials has been an issue in agricultural extension activities, especially in regions of ethnic minority people in Vietnam. In principle, extension activities should be implemented based on agreements through discussion between both sides. However, it has been considered to be more time and budget consuming. In this project, the issue “how to enhance villagers’ participation into agricultural extension activity provided by local officials” has been focused, and examined through actual extension activities introducing alternative techniques for sustainable production in this area. The following section explores each steps of facilitation enhancing farmers’ participation, making recommendation for planning and implementation.

    Making the Link The Connection and Sustainable Management of Kon Ka Kinh National Park and Kon Chu Rang Nature Reserve Terminal Evaluation November 2010 Prepared for Prepared by Jo Breese Tourism Resource Consultants, assisted by Dr Pham Duc Chien EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kon Ka Kinh-Kon Chu Rang Landscape (KKK-KCR Landscape) contains Kon Ka Kinh National Park (KKK NP) and Kon Chu Rang Nature Reserve (KCR NR) in north-eastern Gia Lai Province, central Vietnam. KKK NP and KCR NR are global priorities for biodiversity conservation because they support most of the unique biological attributes of the Central Annamites Priority Landscape. This area was identified as a Priority 1 area in the Truong Son conservation landscape by the Truong Son initiative (Tordoff et al. 2003). The KKK-KCR Landscape supports over 100,000 ha of natural forest at 500-1,748 m altitude, including a large proportion of the forested catchments of the Ba and Con rivers. Kon Ka Kinh (KKK) and Kon Chu Rang (KCR) were decreed as nature reserves by the Government of Vietnam in 19861, and rated as priority B in the Biodiversity Action Plan for Vietnam in 1994 (Government of Vietnam 1994). In 2002, KKK was upgraded to national park status2. Currently, the intervening forest area between KKK and KCR remains under the management of Dakrong and Tram Lap State Forest Companies (SFCs), despite ongoing aspirations for them to be included in the protected areas. However, individually these two protected areas are too small to maintain viable populations of all species, particularly wide-ranging species that occur at naturally low densities, such as Tiger Panthera tigris and Gaur Bos frontalis (Tordoff et al.
