Abstract Peat forests are wetlands ecosystems that are prone to fire hazards.

Peatlands ecosystems is very important in hydrological region downstream of a watershed because it can absorb water up to 13 times more than its weight. In addition, the region is also a store of peat carbon stocks are very large, both above and below the ground surface. In preparation for the implementation of the burning of rice fields resonant system, we have not seen any effort or ability to control by the community itself. Fire as a result of tillage / combustion for resonant only seems to be going out that has been hampered by a bulkhead which is still watery marsh or interrupted by natural barriers and other artificial. Limitations of productive land caused extensification of agriculture leads to marginal lands.

Peatland ecosystems is very important in the downstream watershed hydrology because it can absorb water up to 13 times more than its weight. In addition, this region also store very large reserves of peat carbon, both above and below the ground surface. In preparation for the implementation of the combustion system of resonant fields, did not see any effort or ability to control by the communities themselves.

Peat forest wetland ecosystems that are prone to catch fire. Peatland ecosystems is very important in the hydrological downstream area of the watershed, because it can absorb water up to 13 times more than its weight. In addition, the region also store carbon very large stocks of peat, and above and below the Earth's surface. In preparation for the implementation of the burning of rice-field MRI System, have not seen nor force, nor the ability to monitor the community itself. Fire as a result of processing of soil/combustion for resonant only appears to be that it was difficult to partition, which is still watery swamp or interrupted by natural barriers and other artificial. Restrictions on productive lands as a result of extensive agriculture leads to marginal lands. Peat bogs are one of the selected type of marginal lands, in particular, large estates because the relatively sparsely populated, so the possibility of conflicts in land use relative kecil.Forest/peatland degradation Kebakaran significantly affect the environment, human health and socio-economic aspects of the community.

Peat bogs are ecosystems of wetlands that are prone to the risk of fire. Bog ecosystems is very important in the hydrologic region downstream of a watershed, because it can absorb water up to 13 times more than its weight. In addition, the region is also a warehouse of stocks of carbon from peat are very large, both above and below the soil surface. In preparation for the implementation of the burning of the system of resonance rice fields, I have not seen any effort or ability to control by the community itself. Fire as a result of ploughing / combustion for resonant only seems to be that it has been hampered by a bulkhead that still watery swamp or interrupted by natural and artificial barriers others. Limitations of productive lands caused by extensification of agriculture leads to marginal lands. The bogs are one of the selected types of marginal lands, especially by the large estates, due to the relatively low population density, which is why the possibility of conflicts of land use in relationship ketjil.Kebakaran forest / degradation of the peat bogs of significantly affecting the environment, human health and socio-economic aspects of the community.
