タイトル:Peat is Wet: Restoration for Improved Livelihood

要旨：Peat fires are disaster, as Indonesia has experienced. It was burnt massively last year, as consequence of over a decade of peat draining. We have seen enough, and it is time now to rewet the drained peatland while keeping and maintaining the intact peatswamp forest. BRG is established by President of Indonesia in 6 January 2016 to restore the degraded peatland, so fires will not be occurring again, local livelihood is improving and social conflict is resolving. Our strategy is regulating the hydrological system, re-vegetating the restored peat and integrating peatland management into village development. This certainly needs re-zonation of peatland, harmonization of policy, proven concept and business model for paludiculture as conducted of villagers. BRG will restore 2.26 million hectares of peatland in seven provinces in Sumatera, Kalimantan and Papua, of which 1.9 million are in cultivation land. Collaboration with many key stakeholders is a must; consultation and empowerment of local peoples and indigenous peoples is part of that collaboration.

Ir. H. ARSYADJULIANDI RACHMAN, MBA（リアウ州知事）
タイトル：Fire Prevention Strategy and Developing Sustainable Livelihood “Sago Palm”　in Riau Peatland

要旨：The purpose of this presentation is to share the experience with all parties concerned with the problems of forest fires and in particular in the peat land. Riau Province is a province of which area is dominated by peat areas covering 5.7 million hectares (56.1% of total peat land in Sumatra). In 2014, it was found 4.323 hotspots in the peat land. The fire occurred due to several factors, such as people’s habits and palm oil companies clearing land by burning, extreme weather, limited knowledge of local people regarding safety and secured land clearing techniques. Efforts that have been done in the context of fire prevention and maintenance of peat was in the form of dissemination to the public, increasing people awareness about proper land clearance, coordination with all stakeholders and law enforcement. Although peat fires still occurred in 2015, the number of hotspots decreased to 1,830 or ± 58% declined from 2014. Meanwhile, sago palm on peat lands remain intact with some programs, namely rehabilitation and reforestation, water management in peat lands by canal blocking.
