Abstract

Agriculture plays a vital role of biodiversity management strategies aimed at developing sustainable agricultural and food systems. Riparian vegetation management strategies are essential for the sustainability of agricultural systems, particularly through the selecting suitable plant species. The objective of this study is to analyze the riparian vegetation of the Kampar River basin and clustering species. The study was conducted in the riparian area of the Kampar River, Indonesia, across eight stations. The methods included phytosociological relevés, cluster analysis, and ecophysiological indicator analysis. The study identified 38 dominant plant species in the riparian area of the Kampar River Basin on podsolic soils, grouped into five main clusters. On peatlands, 26 plant species were identified, organized into three clusters based on similarities in chemical and physical properties of soil and mesoclimatic factors. The identification and use of local plants that are well-adapted can be used to develop riparian vegetation management strategies and support sustainable agriculture in the riparian zone of the Kampar River Basin.
