SUCCESS STORY OF
CRITICAL LAND REHABILITATION
WANAGAMA EDUCATION FOREST
(Wanagama 1)
WANAGAMAWana : Forest Gama : Universitas Gadjah Mada
: Wana & Gama
A forest managed by Faculty of Forestry, Universitas Gadjah Mada
The Objectives1. To provide a place for Faculty of Forestry
lecturers and students to carry out three-part of functions: teaching, extension and research
2. To conduct outreach programs for college students, primary and high school students as well as individuals interested in learning about forest and environment
Forest area in Wanagama was critical - bareland (no tree vegetation) - soil was severely eroded (scarce soils between rocks)
Background
Challenge for Prof. Oemi Haniin to conduct rehabilitation
Rehabilitatation constrain:• Physical Constrain:
• Social Constrain:
1. soil condition2. climate3. topography
1. poor people2. less education3. depend on forest
(long dry season)
Wood for houses
Villagers use forest resources to meet
their needs
Fodder for cattle
Firewood for cooking
Establishment of Morus sp plantation and cultivation of Bombix mori (silk-worm) to
financing rehabilitation program in Wanagama 1 House of Bombix mori
cultivation in Wanagama 1
Cocoon production
Financial Constrain
2. Technical Approach• Terracing• Dung

1. Social Approach
REHABILITATION STRATEGY
Soil development3. Biological Approach
Vegetation succession
• Pioneer Legumes
• Extension• Allowing benefits Fodder, firewood,
crops, wages
Extension & Extension & ZakatZakat
1. Social Approach
• Traditional ceremony Leather puppet “Merti desa”
- Extension
• Religious event Eid Mubarok Zakat
“Merti desa” is a ceremony to warship God for successful farming
Social approaches ……. (continued)
- Firewood: dead twigs and branches
- Labor
- Fodder Dung and manures returned to forest
- Terrace construction- Seed collection- Nursery activities- Etc.
Social approaches ……. (continued)
Agroforestry system- Grow crops
Alley cropping Trees along border
2. Technical approaches
Dung application Terracing
• Terracing• Dung
application
Acacia villosa Gliricidia sepium
Planting pioneer vegetation (Acacia villosa, Gliricidia sepium and Leucaena leucocephala)
3. Biological approach
- Soil development - Micro environment improvementVegetation succession
Pioneer vegetation played important roles in the early establishment of Wanagama 1
Leucaena leucocepkala
Multi purpose tree
- Started in 1964/1966- In 10 ha area at compartment 5- From a bare-land
Rehabilitation in Wanagama 1
Five spirits / commitments to
develop Wanagama: Spirits of Hard Work, Smart Work, Sincere Work, Collaboration Work and Total Work
