Abstract

ABSTRACT Home gardens are traditional agroforestry systems that promote plant diversity and ecosystem services while also having direct and positive impacts on human livelihoods. Even though home gardens are considered biodiversity hotspots and have recently been recognised as essential for their role in tropical biodiversity conservation, the benefits of ecosystem services provided by home gardens are understudied. This study investigated plant diversity and ecosystem services in tropical home gardens in the Aceh Timur region of Indonesia. Data was collected from 180 home gardens in 12 villages and recorded 173 plant species associated with 16 ecosystem services. The majority of the cultivated plants were fruit and vegetable plants, which played an important role in supporting food security and household income. Home gardens, with their plant species diversity and ecosystem services, played an important role in biodiversity conservation. Home gardens were important not only for improving household livelihoods, but also for the conservation of plant genetic resources and nearby protected forests.

家庭花园植物的多样性及其对促进印度尼西亚亚齐帖木儿地区Serbajadi保护区附近当地社区可持续生计的贡献

家庭花园是传统的农林复合系统，促进植物多样性和生态系统服务，同时也对人类生计产生直接和积极的影响。尽管家庭花园被认为是生物多样性的热点，并且最近被认为在热带生物多样性保护中起着至关重要的作用，但家庭花园提供的生态系统服务的好处还没有得到充分的研究。本研究调查了印度尼西亚亚齐帖木儿地区热带家庭花园的植物多样性和生态系统服务。从12个村庄的180个家庭花园收集数据，记录了173种与16种生态系统服务相关的植物物种。种植的植物以水果和蔬菜植物为主，在支持粮食安全和家庭收入方面发挥了重要作用。家庭花园具有丰富的植物物种多样性和生态系统服务功能，在生物多样性保护中发挥着重要作用。家庭花园不仅对改善家庭生计很重要，而且对保护植物遗传资源和附近的保护森林也很重要。

期刊介绍： Biological Agriculture & Horticulture aims to act as the central focus for a wide range of studies into alternative systems of husbandry, and particularly the biological or organic approach to food production. The Journal publishes work of a sound scientific or economic nature related to any aspect of biological husbandry in agriculture, horticulture and forestry in both temperate and tropical conditions, including energy and water utilization, and environmental impact.
