Abstract

The study was conducted to identify the types of plants or vegetation and planting patterns in agroforestry land owned by the community of Golewa Barat District, Ngada Regency, NTT Province. The research method was carried out descriptively qualitatively with direct observation in the field, interviews, documentation and providing descriptions of the results of observations in the field.

The results of the study showed that the Agroforestry System in Golewa Barat District was carried out with the Agrosilvopastura Pattern, namely planting that combines agricultural crops, forestry plants and green fodder. Agricultural and plantation crops such as cloves (Syzygium aromaticum), candlenuts (Aleurites mollucanus), coconut (Cocos nucifera), rice (Oryza sativa), ginger (Zingiber officinale), corn (Zea mays), coffee (Coffea), taro (Colosasia esculante), and vegetables. Tree plants include ampupu (Ecalyptus urophylla), albasia (Paraseriaanthes falctaria) mahogany (Swietenia mahagoni), white teak (Gmelina arborea) and surem (Toona ciliata). The animal feed plants found are king grass (Pennisetum purpuphoides). The agroforestry pattern applied by the community is a square and rectangular pattern. Forestry plants are planted at a certain distance that provides space for planting agricultural crops and animal feed in the gaps.
