Lamperkas Eco-village: Realization of Circular Community Economy as the Mainstream of Climate Change Mitigation

Abstract

This research aims to determine the realization of a circular economy in the Lamperkas community as the mainstream of climate change mitigation. Lamperkas village is a village located in the Jambi Fuel Terminal ring 1 area, precisely in Kasang Village, East Jambi District, Jambi City, Jambi Province. Kasang Village Most of the area is residential because it is located in the middle of Jambi City.  Based on the Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment in Disaster (REA) study conducted by FT Jambi, it is clear that Jambi City especially East Jambi District has a potential risk of natural and non-natural disasters in the form of floods, droughts and fires. This also has an impact on the economic activities of the community in Kasang Village and Sijenjang Village as the Ring I area of ​​PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Fuel Terminal Jambi. Therefore, it is hoped that increasing community income after a disaster can go hand in hand with preserving the environment as an effort to help prevent flood disasters. Economic improvement was created from the Jambi Fuel Terminal TJSL program, namely from the production of vegetables, chicken, freshwater fish, cocoa and maggots which were sold fresh or processed products managed by the MSME group. Apart from increasing the quantity and quality of products, the community succeeded in reducing capital by composting managed vegetable waste to become a food source for BSF maggots. BSF maggots are processed into organic pellets for chicken feed. This initiative has increased income by 32.09% of the Jambi City Minimum Wage (UMK) standard, namely IDR 3,387,064. Manure waste used as organic fertilizer for cocoa plantations has increased income by 29.03% of cocoa farmers' income per harvest and savings in purchasing fertilizer by 80%
