REMPAH-REMPAH

( Cengkeh & Pala)

 

 

 

Latar Belakang
Project

 

Indonesia adalah salah satu exporter
rempah-rempah terbesar di dunia pada urutan ke tiga setelah China dan India. Dalam sejarahnya dan hingga
kini Maluku merupkan pusat penting perdagangan rempah Indonesia. Sementara itu komoditi
rempah (cengkeh dan pala) adalah sumber pendapatan dan berpotensial besar untuk
memperbaiki kondisi sosial ekonomi masyarakat Maluku. Namun kenyataannya terlihat
adanya kendala pada beberapa sistem pasar yang menyebabkan kendala di setiap
levelnya.

Pada November
2010, Mercy Corps melakukan assessment yang menujukkan bahwa pengetahuan petani
dalam teknik budidaya cengkeh dan pala masih rendah. Tidak adanya informasi atau transfer pengetahuan
di daerah setempat menyebabkan para petani 
tidak mampu merehabilitasi tanaman, melakukan pengendalian serangan hama
dan merawat tanaman. Sehingga mereka sangat tertarik dalam kerja sama untuk
mempelajari teknik budidaya yang baik dan mengidentifikasi peluang untuk melakukan
peremajaan tanaman baru serta informasi keuntungan yang dihasilkan setelah
menerapkan hal tersebut.

Melalui Program SUD (Spice UP the Deal), Mercy
Corps akan bekerjasama dengan seorang tenaga ahli budidaya rempah-rempah dan memberikan
ToT (Training of trainers) kepada petani untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan cara
tanam dan memperbaiki praktek pertanian sehingga kita dapat berharap akan
terjadi perubahan di tingkatan petani secara bertahap dan berkelanjutan.

tentang praktek budidaya rempah yang baik dan dapat mengimplementasikannya di
tingkat petani. Dan

menyebarkan dan mentransferkan pengetahuan praktek budidaya rempah-rempah
yang baikMelakukan Sekolah Lapang untuk memperagakan bagaimana

Waktu dan Daerah Kerja

 

Seorang konsultan pertanian yang telah terikat
kontrak kerja dengan Mercycorps akan bekerja selama 10 hari dengan wilayah
kerja di Pulau Ambon dan Seram, Provinsi Maluku.

The USAID Indonesia Forestry and Climate Support Project (USAID IFACS) is an integrated climate change, sustainable forest management, and low carbon emissions development program implemented collaboratively by the Government of Indonesia and USAID/Indonesia, building on 20 years of joint forest management effort between the Indonesian and US governments. The project was initiated in November 2010 and will be implemented over a four year period. USAID IFACS seeks to reduce the threats of deforestation and climate change, and help the Government of Indonesia (GOI) conserve the country's tropical forests, wildlife, and ecosystem processes (including carbon sequestration). The purpose of the grants program is to support USAID IFACS implementation by providing conservation incentives, increasing local participation, and improving collaboration in the achievement of project results.

Tetra Tech ARD, pursuant to the authority contained in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and USAID Contract #AID-497-TO11-00002, is implementing the USAID IFACS Grants Program. Awards will be administered in accordance with provisions contained in ADS, Section 302.5.6, "Grants Under Contracts," ADS Chapter 303, "Grants and Cooperative Agreements to Non-Governmental Organizations," and/or within the terms of the USAID Standard Provisions applicable to Non-U.S. Non-Governmental Recipients. USAID IFACS will award standard, simplified, and fixed-obligation grants to successful applicants.

The USAID IFACS Grants Program targets non-governmental organizations (NGOs), universities, small and medium scale enterprises, and other civil society organizations operating in the following districts:

• Aceh Selatan
• Aceh Tenggara (with Gayu Lues)
• Katingan (with Pulang Pisau)
• Ketapang (with Melawai and Kayong Utara)
• Sarmi
• Mamberamo

• Asmat

USAID IFACS highly encourages applications from indigenous and Indonesian organizations. Grants up to IDR 850,000,000 may be awarded for projects ending by 1 August 2014. USAID IFACS anticipates issuing grants between one to three years. Projects should address one or more of the following areas:

• Land and forest resource governance including spatial planning: Improving governance of land and forest resources through strengthened natural resource governance capacity, spatial planning implementation, increased multi-stakeholder coordination, and improved implementation of forest management, climate change, and environmental law enforcement mandates.
• Improved management and conservation of forest resources in a changing climate: Reducing and/or mitigating threats that directly and indirectly degrade Indonesian forests, including climate change, and assisting communities to adapt and respond to such change in their management and use of vulnerable forest resources.
• Private sector, local enterprise, and market linkages: Helping local communities increase incomes at the community level through sustainable economic alternatives such as value-added processing.

Illustrative activities include local reforestation initiatives, value-added processing for agricultural and non-timber forest products, agricultural inputs to increase seed quality/tolerance to climate extremes/diversity, small scale sustainable SME products and services, implementation of small scale renewable energy, and other activities that directly support achievement of desired project results. USAID IFACS encourages applicants to reach out to a broad range of community and regional actors and propose creative and innovative approaches and methodology.
Large established organizations will be required to provide between 10 to 25 percent cost share contribution. USAID IFACS will make considerations for the cost share amount for small, less established, and indigenous organizations. Cost sharing includes beneficiary contribution, in cash and in kind, which would be required to implement the program.
