Traditional Javanese Pekarangan – Building, Restoration and Preservation

Dairy Goat Breeding Acceleration Program to Improve Genetic Quality and Milk Production in Indonesia
Traditional Javanese Pekarangan are an important part of both rural and urban landscapes in Indonesia.
But unfortunately through both neglect and also the increasing pressure for residential areas and development, we are losing these areas which serve both a key socio-economic and ecological roles in our community. Traditional Javanese Pekarangan are more than just plants, they also are a way of social interaction and community. A pekarangan also defines the architectural spaces around it as well as it evolves to match the needs of the family who take care of it.
For me, I will be coming up to the 12 month mark of building, restoration and preservation of a small Traditional Javanese Pekarangan owned by our family located in Wedomartani (desa di kecamatan Ngemplak, Sleman, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta). There still is a lot of work to be done and many species of plants still remain to be added to the collection.

8 年good article Clive, I agree with you. Maybe its happened by consideration for high price for buying more land or also people now need more 'privacy' than in old time, or maybe people don't need direct conversation anymore nor just to watch: "who is my neighbor", I don't care anymore. Well Clive, there is so many reasons, and I don't care anymore. But your article has successfully kick me off, and I have to give you my BIG LIKE! Terima kasih.
