Unlocking the Quality Potential of Liberoid Coffee: Advances in Composition, Processing, and Microbial Fermentation. [PDF]

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT Liberoid coffee (Coffea liberica group), comprising varieties of Liberica and Excelsa coffee types, is gaining attention for its unique chemical composition and sensory potential. However, its quality remains under‐optimized due to limited understanding of genotype‐specific traits and processing responses.

Trophic Change and Community Decline in Acrobat Ants After Rainforest Conversion to Cash Crops. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Acrobat Ants (Crematogaster spp.) are numerically and ecologically dominant ants in tropical canopies. Rainforest transformation to rubber and monoculture plantations affects their trophic ecology, which coincides with reduced abundance and richness, and altered community composition.

Chemical Composition and Sensory Profiles of Fermented Cocoa Beans Obtained from Various Regions of Indonesia. [PDF]

Int J Food Sci, 2023
The chemical composition and sensory profile of cocoa beans are essential factors determining the quality of cocoa‐based products. In this study, cocoa bean samples were collected from various regions of Indonesia, including Aceh, Banten, Bali, East Java, West Sumatra, West Sulawesi, East Kalimantan, and Yogyakarta.

Maintaining understory vegetation in oil palm plantations supports higher assassin bug numbers

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 4, Issue 4, October–December 2023., 2023
Reduced understory vegetation complexity in oil palm plantations leads to a significant drop off in numbers of assassin bugs, which are major pest control agents within the system. This suggests that maintaining understory vegetation in oil palm has the potential to boost both biodiversity and pest control.

Rainforest conversion to plantations fundamentally alters energy fluxes and functions in canopy arthropod food webs

Ecology Letters, Volume 26, Issue 10, Page 1663-1675, October 2023., 2023
Tropical tree canopies harbour tremendous biodiversity, but are severely threatened by conversion to cash crop agricultural systems. Using canopy fogging and subsequent stable isotope and energy flux analysis, we show that conversion of rainforest into rubber and oil palm plantations not only leads to a drastic decrease in energy fluxes by up to 75 ...

Rainforest conversion to smallholder cash crops leads to varying declines of beetles (Coleoptera) on Sumatra

Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 119-131, January 2023., 2023
This study compared canopy beetle density and diversity between lowland rainforest and the three main cash crop agriculture systems in Sumatra, Indonesia: jungle rubber agroforest, and monoculture plantations of rubber and oil palm. Focusing on the four beetle families Chrysomelidae, Curculionidae, Elateridae and Staphylinidae, we demonstrate severe ...

Agrarian movements and rural populism in Indonesia

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 23, Issue 1, Page 68-84, January 2023., 2023
Abstract In this article, we reflect on the changing trajectories of agrarian movements in Indonesia. In the two decades after independence, a left‐populist alliance of peasants, plantation workers, and other affiliate organizations achieved a mass following and were embraced by President Sukarno.

Effect of Ripe Level on Palm Fruit Threshing Efficiency [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
The processing of palm fruit bunches (FFB) into crude palm oil (Crude Palm Oil) has been around for decades, requiring innovations in technology and methods that are based on time efficiency, costs, and environmental friendliness.

Rainforest conversion to cash crops reduces abundance, biomass and species richness of parasitoid wasps in Sumatra, Indonesia

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 506-515, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Parasitoid wasps affect herbivory in natural and agricultural ecosystems, including cash crops. The impacts of rainforest transformation to rubber and oil palm on parasitoid wasp communities are poorly understood. We collected canopy arthropods, once each in dry season and rainy season, via canopy fogging in four land‐use systems in Jambi ...

No evidence for trade‐offs between bird diversity, yield and water table depth on oil palm smallholdings: Implications for tropical peatland landscape restoration

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1231-1247, May 2022., 2022
Tropical peatlands in Indonesia have been drained to allow farmer access and improve farm yields, but we found no trade‐offs between drainage depth, yields and bird diversity on smallholder oil palm farms in our study landscape within the studied range of drainage depths.
