ABSTRAK

Penanaman semula hutan paya bakau dipertimbangkan sebagai satu usaha terbaik bagi melindungi dan memelihara kawasan pesisir pantai. Dalam kajian ini sejumlah 180 anak benih Bruguiera cylindrica telah ditanam di kawasan pesisir pantai Pulau Carey. Dua set eksperimen daripada segi corak dan medium dilakukan dengan 3 plot replika bagi setiap rawatan dengan kaedah Blok Rawak Lengkap. Kadar keterushidupan anak bakau B. cylindrica dicatat setiap 2 minggu selama 20 minggu. Keputusan menunjukkan corak penanaman secara kelompok adalah lebih sesuai (20%).  Anak bakau yang ditanam secara langsung di atas tanah menunjukkan kadar hidup yang lebih tinggi (30%). Namun ujian analisis ANOVA menunjukkan tiada perbezaan yang signifikan antara ketiga-tiga corak taburan penanaman dan penggunaan medium yang berbeza ini terhadap keterushidupan anak bakau B. cylindrica.

ABSTRACT

Replanting of mangrove forest is considered as one of the best practices to protect coastal areas. In this study a total of 180 seedlings of Bruguiera cylindrica have been planted  in the coastal area on Carey Island. Two sets of experiments with replanting patterns and replanting medium with 3 replicates under each treatment, using Completely Randomized Block Design were conducted. The survival rate of B. cylindrica was recorded every 2 weeks for 20 weeks. Result showed that the clumped distribution pattern was more suitable (20%) and that replanting directly on the ground method was the most successful in seedling survival (30%). However, ANOVA analysis showed that there was no significant difference between all the three replanting patterns as well as different media.
