Yard Biodiversity to Support Local Economic Development in Skouw Mabo Village, Muara Tami Sub District, Jayapura City, Papua Province, Indonesia

The biodiversity of plants in the tropical forests of Papua is the time to be conserved using the yard approach. These
plants have ecological benefits for environmental sustainability but also as wildlife habitat. The plants that are planted around
community homes now also have an economic impact on the family to improve the family's economy. This study aims to obtain
the value of yard biodiversity based on vertical diversity (strata) and functional diversity (horizontal) and to determine its benefits.
Data collection using vegetation analysis methods and calculation of biodiversity values using the Shanon and Wiener indices. The
results of the study are that there are 2 very dominant types of plants in the yard, namely areca nut (Areca catechu L.) with a
summed dominance ratio (SDR) of 58.4-66.2. For other types there are Moringa (Moringa oleifera) with (SDR) 10.8. The conclusion
of the dominant areca nut and moringa is closely related to culture and the two plants currently support economically for
increasing the income of families in the village.
