Upscaling Sustainable Horticulture Value Chain of Women Urban Farmer Groups in Bogor City, West Java, Indonesia
The data is based on a case study to explore the sustainability impacts of urban agriculture practices (focus on environmental and economic aspects) and a possible approach for the development of local horticultural value chain in Bogor City. The research was conducted during June-August 2019. Literature review and secondary data collection were carried out in June and fieldworks were carried out on 6th July – 11th August 2019. The primary data was compiled by conducting several methods, that consist of participatory research, field survey on biodiversity, and stakeholder interview.
Participatory Research
The participatory parts of this research were carried out to find out the environmental, economic, and social impacts. By combining several tools in this research, participatory research was conducted through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and group interviews. The FDG was carried out to find out the economic impacts of women farmer groups and cost-benefit analysis of urban agriculture practices. The group interview was conducted by visiting the groups on the site. List interview questions were prepared to gain information from the members regarding social and environmental aspects as well to cross-check the economic impact of urban agriculture practices.
Field Survey on Biodiversity
The field survey was conducted by visiting the gardens of women urban farmer groups. It was conducted by following the main paths of the garden and observing at radius 5-10 metres on the border of the garden (depended on the type of border). Census method was applied to identify the biodiversity of flora. The number per crop species was not calculated in detail, but only tree-species (perennial crop) was calculated.
The survey on fauna biodiversity was conducted twice. Besides, due to time limitation for conducting observation repetition, fauna species information from the local community (women farmer group members) during group interviews were cited. Species list method was applied to identify the biodiversity of avifauna and insects.
Stakeholders Interview
The interviews were undertaken with several stakeholders, including five (5) local government institutions, three (3) educational institution, five (5) TSOs (third sector organisations)/voluntary based-community, and retailers/prospective customers that consisted of three (3) supermarkets and five (5) shops.
There ware two kinds of data, quantitative and qualitiative. The quantitative data was analyzed through statistical analysis (Multiple linear regression) and Annual Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA). The qualitative was conducted to the responses of open-ended questions during group interview and FGD to women farmer groups, individual interviews with several stakeholders and additional findings during observation on the field. Grounded theory was used as qualitative analysis

Life-history traits and group dynamic in black and gold howler monkeys in flooded forests of northern Argentina
Black and gold howlers (Alouatta caraya) reach the southernmost distribution of all howler species in Northern Argentina, where they are found living on islands with flooded forest along the Parana River and in gallery forests and forest fragments in the mainland. The goal of this chapter is to provide the first compilation of life-history traits coming from a long term study on black and gold howlers living in a continuous flooded forest in Northern Argentina, and compare these results to data coming from a long term study site in the mainland.Fil: Kowalewski, Miguel Martin.
