It explores the role of ‘valuation’ methods and their contribution to policy-making and river fishery manage- ment. From the compilation, the best estimate of the global value of inland fisheries for those three continents is US$ 5.58 billion (gross market value), which is equivalent to 19 percent of the current value of annual fish exports from developing countries (US$ 29 billion) for 2004. The compilation shows that there is a general shortage of information on inland fisheries, especially derived from conventional economic valuation methods, though infor- mation from economic impact assessment methods and socio-economic and livelihood analysis methods is more widely available. The status of knowledge about the impact of changes in river management on the value of tropical river fisheries is weak and patchy. Although the impacts of large dams on the hydrology, ecology and livelihood support attributes of tropical rivers are well-recognized, there have been only few valuation studies of these issues. The document highlights the need for further valuation studies of tropical river and inland fisheries in developing countries. It underlines how vital it is for policy-makers and other stakeholders to understand the importance of these natural resources in order to make appropriate decisions concerning their role in development policy and illustrates why capacity building in valuation should become a major priority for agencies concerned with fisheries management and policy-making.

While this program has involved looking again at how water productivity can be improved in irrigated and rain fed agriculture, its engagement with the wider role played by water in sustaining natural resource systems has brought a new dimension crucial to the management of water in agriculture. In doing so, the Comprehensive Assessment has moved beyond traditional concepts of water productivity and more “crop per drop” to embrace the importance of water in sustaining aquatic ecosystems, the resources they support, and the people that depend on these resources for food and income. The present review is an important contribution to this reassessment of water productivity and the role that water in rivers and their associated ecosystems can play in supporting food security and livelihoods. By focusing on river fisheries, the review has concentrated not only on those inland fisheries that are most at risk from changes in water management at the basin scale, but also on a resource that has long been recognized as important but “too difficult” to be fully understood. Furthermore, by pulling together information from Africa, Asia and Latin America, the review shows that, while it may not be easy to obtain good assessments of the value of these resources, failure to grapple with this challenge will seriously constrain efforts to effectively manage water productivity at the basin level. Because of their recognized importance and relative visibility, river fisheries may be viewed as the aquatic equivalent of the “canary in the coalmine”. That is, they provide an indicator of ecosystem health and the ecological value of the water that remains in the world’s river systems. As a result, fisheries can play a critical role in a world where policymakers require rapid information and indicators to guide their decisions. If the value of river fisheries and their role in supporting people’s lives and livelihoods can be better understood and demonstrated, this can provide critical evidence for the policy and management changes required to regulate water flow in these systems and maintain the productivity of the aquatic ecosystems that sustain the fisheries. This review makes an important case for increasing investment in such valuation studies and in building up the capacity to pursue them. It is expected that this message will be heard and the investments required will be made. Patrick Dugan Deputy Director General The WorldFish Center iv Executive Summary iver fisheries, and in general inland fisheries, in the tropical regions of the world provide a range of benefits including a means of livelihood and a source of food for millions of Rpeople. However, national policies relating to crucial issues, such as economic development, poverty alleviation, food security, conservation and sustainability, often fail to recognize these important attributes. This compilation of regional reviews documents the role of valuation and its contribution to policy-making and river fishery management. The document aims to provide a review of the global status of tropical river and inland fisheries valuation. It also considers the impact of changes in river basin management and compares valuation approaches used in different places. From this compilation, the main findings are as follows. The best estimate of current tropical river and inland fisheries production is 5.46 million tonnes valued at US$ 5.58 billion (gross market value), which is equivalent to 19 percent of the current value of annual fish exports from developing countries (US$ 29 billion). There is a general paucity of information globally. This is especially the case for information derived from conventional economic valuation (CEV) methods. Information derived from economic impact assessment methods (EcIA) and socio-economic and livelihood analysis (SE-LA) methods is more widely available. However, there are still serious gaps and deficiencies in these domains. The status of knowledge on the impact of changes in river management on the value of tropical river fisheries is weak and patchy although there is widespread recognition of these issues. Impacts of large dams on the hydrology, ecology and livelihood support attributes of tropical rivers are well-recognized, but there have been only few valuation studies of these impacts. Among other reasons, the generation of information in this area is severely constrained in many countries and river systems by a lack of institutional capacity and skills to undertake valuation studies. Finally, the document highlights the need for further valuation studies of tropical river fisheries and inland fisheries in developing countries. It is vital for policy-makers and other particular groups of stakeholders to understand the importance

Ir. H. Juanda 193, Bandung, Indonesia Komunikasi Penulis, Telp: +08122103205; email: [email protected] Naskah ini diterima pada 27 Desember 2017; revisi pada 3 Februari 2018; disetujui untuk dipublikasikan pada 19 Februari 2018 ABSTRACT Water security is the community's ability to maintain sustainability in meeting water demands for various purposes and managing water-related disasters. The score of Asian countries water security indicator has been formulated and calculated by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). However water security at the river basin level, including irrigation water security, has not been assessed. Like other Asian countries, irrigation in Indonesia is the largest water user, therefore irrigation water security plays important role in water resources management. This paper formulates and calculates the water security for irrigation in all river basins in Indonesia. The computation method is adopted from ADB, and developed according to the conditions of data availability and characteristics of river basins in Indonesia, under the assumption of homogeneity within river basin. It is concluded that the irrigation water security in the river basin in Indonesia is generally in "medium" condition. The "very bad" condition occurs only in Ciliwung-Cisadane and Progo- Opak-Serang river basins. The "bad" conditions include the Bangka, Belitung, Cidanau-Ciujung-Cidurian, Ciliman- Cibungur, Bali-Penida and Lombok river basins. Measures to improve irrigation water security are developing and improving performance of irrigation networks, improve reliability of water supplies by constructing reservoirs and ponds, and reducing water stress with water savings.

    Society and Natural Resources, Volume 7, pp. 429-443 0894-1920/94 $10.00+ .00 Printed in the UK. All rights reserved. Copyright © 1994 Taylor & Francis Soil Conservation and Poverty: Lessons from Upland Indonesia JILL M. BELSKY Department of Sociology University of Montana Missoula, Montana, USA Soil conservation efforts in Indonesia since the Dutch colonial era have focused on in- troducing bench terraces—a costly soil conservation method for poor, upland farm- ers. Data from two villages in the Kerinci uplands of Sumatra illustrate that even with state underwriting of bench terrace construction, farmers across all economic strata still resist using this method. Why the state has not pursued alternative soil conserva- tion approaches—especially ones that entail the "conservation farming " approach and that can better build upon the diversity of upland farming systems—is discussed in the context of the state's emphasis on productivist and commodity-led agricultural development and on broader geopolitical institutions and forces that perpetuate this approach. Given these constraints, state underwriting of soil conservation for poor farmers (i.e., providing "landesque capital" in Blaikie and Brookfield's 1987 termi- nology) suggests undue hope through economic remedies and the ability of the state to implement environmental and social reform, especially to benefit the poor. Keywords Indonesia, political ecology, political economy, poverty, soil conserva- tion, terraces Since the Dutch colonial era, soil conservation efforts in upland Indonesia have empha- sized the introduction of bench terraces. However, the long-term use of agricultural ter- racing by dryland farmers on sloping lands in Indonesia (as well as throughout Southeast Asia) has been varied and often hotly contested (Pelzer, 1945; Chapman, 1975).

Diversity and longitudinal distribution of freshwater fish in Klawing River, Central Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 85-92. The aims of this study were to evaluate the diversity and longitudinal distribution of fish in Klawing River, Purbalingga (Central Java). The survey was performed using a clustered random- sampling technique. The river was divided into upstream, midstream and downstream regions. Species diversity was measured as the number of species, and the longitudinal distribution was assessed by determining the fish species present in each of the three regions. Eighteen fish species of eleven families were identified in the Klawing River: Cyprinidae, Bagridae, Mastacembelidae, Anabantidae, Cichlidae, Channidae, Eleotrididae, Beleontinidae, Osphronemidae, Poecilidae, and Siluridae. Cyprinidae exhibited the highest number of species (six), followed by Bagridae and Cichlidae (two species each). The other families were represented by one species each. A single cluster analysis showed that the upstream population had a similarity of 78% and 50% with the midstream and downstream populations, respectively. Species and family diversities were higher in the midstream populations than in the upstream and downstream populations.

  • Indonesia (Republic Of)
    Indonesia (Republic of) Last updated: 31-01-2004 Location and area Indonesia is an island republic and largest nation of South East Asia, stretching across some 5,000 km and with a north-south spread of about 2,000 km. The republic shares the island of Borneo with Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam; Indonesian Borneo, equivalent to about 75 per cent of the island, is called Kalimantan. The western half of New Guinea is the Indonesian province of Irian Jaya (formerly West Irian); the eastern half is part of Papua New Guinea. The marine frontiers of Indonesia include the South China Sea, the Celebes Sea, and the Pacific Ocean to the north, and the Indian Ocean to the south and west. Indonesia has a land area of 1,904,443 km2. (Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 2002). According to Geoanalytics (www.geoanalytics.com/bims/bims.htm) the land area of Indonesia comprises 1,919,663 km2. Topography Indonesia comprises 13,677 islands on both sides of the equator, 6,000 of which are inhabited. Kalimantan and Irian Jaya, together with Sumatra (also called Sumatera), Java (Jawa), and Celebes (Sulawesi) are the largest islands and, together with the insular provinces of Kalimantan and Irian Jaya, account for about 95 per cent of its land area. The smaller islands, including Madura, Timor, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, and Bali predominantly form part of island groups. The Moluccas (Maluku) and the Lesser Sunda Islands (Nusatenggara) are the largest island groups. The Java, Flores, and Banda seas divide the major islands of Indonesia into two unequal strings. The comparatively long, narrow islands of Sumatra, Java, Timor (in the Nusatenggara group), and others lie to the south; Borneo, Celebes, the Moluccas, and New Guinea lie to the north.

Biodiversitas 20: 2368-2374. This study provided understanding of morphometric variation and diet composition of three species of mudskippers, i.e. Boleophthalmus boddarti, Periophthalmodon schlosseri, and Periophthalmus chrysospilos. The data obtained can be used for fish cultivation in the future. The relation of weight and length of species B. boddarti, P. schlosseri and P. chrysospilos had a correlation of 72.2%, 98.2%, and 94.5% , respectively with the value of b = 1.474, 3.189, and 2.271, respectively. This suggests that the growth patterns of B. boddarti and P. chrysospilos are allometrically negative, while P. schlosseri is allometrically positive. B. boddarti is classified as a herbivore, the main food of phytoplankton from Bacillariophyceae class with percentage 100%; 80% of Chlorophyceae; 95.6% of Cyanophyceae; 13.33% of Desmidiaceae; 13.33% of Euglenophyceae and 37.78% of Xanthophyceae.

ABSTRACT For the past 200 years most, if not all Australian Tree Frogs have been treated as being in a single genus. For many years this was Hyla Laurenti, 1768, before the genus name Litoria Tschudi, 1838 was adopted by Cogger et al. (1983) and has been in general use by most herpetologists since, including Cogger (2014). Tyler and Davies (1978) divided the putative genus Litoria into 37 “species groups” and this type of classification has been used by numerous authors since, including most recently Menzies (2006) for the New Guinea species and Anstis (2014) for the Australian ones.
