Thecuy.com, Tana Tidung – Kepiting cultivation at the Mangrove Rehabilitation Pond of Pulau Mangkasak, Tana Lia District, Tana Tidung Regency, North Kalimantan, is developed using a silvofishery model that integrates fish farming and mangrove planting. This method is used to preserve the coastal ecosystem’s functions while also supporting the local community’s economic activities.
In activities observed on Tuesday (31/1/2026), the fish farmers of Pulau Mangkasak cultivated not only crabs but also other products such as shrimp and milkfish. This method is part of the Mangroves for Coastal Resilience (M4CR) program, which engages community groups in the area.
Silvofishery as an environmentally friendly farming method
Silvofishery is a fish farming system that merges mangrove with pond aquaculture. Practically, this method allows the community to continue their fishing businesses while preserving the surrounding mangrove areas.
The presence of mangrove in pond areas is considered to provide ecological benefits, including protecting the coast and maintaining pond environmental stability. Therefore, mangrove rehabilitation is not only seen as an environmental recovery effort, but also as part of strengthening more sustainable fishing businesses.
Support for community groups
The community groups in Pulau Mangkasak receive various forms of support to run mangrove rehabilitation areas productively. This support includes mangrove seedlings, farming equipment, operational assistance, and the construction of supporting infrastructure.
In addition to physical assistance, the community also receives training and guidance to ensure that area management can achieve a balance between mangrove conservation and farming activities. Thus, residents can maintain their primary livelihoods without neglecting coastal environmental functions.
Economic and environmental benefits
The mangrove rehabilitation program in Pulau Mangkasak demonstrates that ecosystem recovery can proceed alongside residents’ economic activities. Through crab farming and other fisheries, the community obtains business opportunities that still prioritize environmental sustainability.
Applying silvofishery is also a way to create a balance between economic needs and coastal area protection. In the context of Pulau Mangkasak, this approach illustrates that mangrove rehabilitation can create space for productive activities without compromising the area’s ecological functions.
