Abstract

Camphor trees (Dryobalanops aromatica) are one of the typical trees with a high prospect in Nusantara, especially in North Sumatra. Camphor was in high demand in the 2nd century so the price was almost equal to gold, Europe and the Middle East showed a high interest in this commodity. The camphor tree produces camphor which attracts the interest of most people. This tree grows in the forests of northern Sumatra. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) states that camphor has entered a very critical period and is even threatened with extinction. Therefore, it Is important to maintain and protect the existence of camphor trees by involving wider communities to grow this tree. This paper discusses the conservation and development of camphor trees in the Sibagindar camphor forest as a form of conservation of camphor biodiversity and sustainable regional economic development. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method. The first process was identifying the problems and potentials of the camphor tree and the local area. Data were analyzed to design a conservation and development model of camphor.
