DUSUNG SYSTEM AS FOREST GARDEN SYSTEM IN SAPARUA ISLAND | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIO

Before the 16th century, indigenous people on Saparua Island used the Dusung System as a forest garden system. This is one of the reasons why Europeans attempted to colonise The Spice Island, resulting in 350 years of colonialism. The Dusung System was implemented on Saparua Island with the help of customary institutional (Raja, Soa, Saniri, Kewang) and customary laws, including Sasi, that are still widely practised and followed today. Land ownership status, dominant plant species, plant age, and location name can all be used to classify Dusung System forms.
