The BANYUWANGI - Government of Banyuwangi Regency, East Java, is currently focusing on structuring upstream areas in flood management and there are two schemes that will soon be carried out, namely creating a water-retaining dead ditch or rorak as well as planting a high absorption hard plant. Banyuwangi Regent Ipuk Fiestiandani said two schemes that will soon be carried out in the context of handling the flood will be carried out in the upstream area, namely the completion on the slopes of Mount Ijen. "The environmental conservation on the slopes of Mount Ijen is very necessary because in areas that have a height of 500-900 meters above sea level (mdpl) there are three plantations that can be optimized as water catch areas (catchment area) so that rainwater does not flow directly downstream. Around that plantation, he continued, there are two water-watersheds (DAS) that all originate in the upstream city area, namely the Kalibendo and the Kalilo River. "We can make water-restrict dead ditches and plant planting of hard plants that we do as an effort to prepare catchment areas in upstream areas, especially on the slopes of Mount Ijen," said Ipuk.The acting Head of Agriculture and Food Service of Banyuwangi Regency Ilham Juanda explains that water-retaining dead ditches can accommodate water when it rains occur, so that water can be kept longer in the upstream area, and also helps to anticipate drought during the dry season. "In addition to plantations, part of hectares, we can also build 5 to 10 rorak, depending on land conditions. If our calculations are about 1,000 more tidally needed in order for water to be accommodated maximally upstream," said Ilham, Ilham, Ilham, Ilham Juanda's nickname. While the hard plants were chosen by durian plants, Mahani and suctuencies, because in addition to absorption of such plants also have economic value. For this program it is needed for about 1,000 trees. In addition to plantations, part of seedlings will also be supported from splicants. For sports,
