Abstract

The paper is to examine the importance of the nectariniidae family as a group of pollinating birds in agroforestry commodities among local communities. The method used is direct observation in the field for period 1998-2018 and through literature studies from various literatures, such as books, journals and from cyberspace. The results show that pollinator birds found in and of around agroforestry areas include: Anthreptes malacensis, Anthreptes simplex, Anthreptes rhodolaema, Leptocoma sperata, Cinnyris jugularis, Aethopyga eximia, Aethopyga siparaja, Aethopyga mystacalis, Aethopyga temminckii, Chalcoparia singalensis, Hypogramma hypogrammicum, Leptocoma brasiliana, Arachnothera longirostra, Arachnothera robusta, Arachnothera flavigaster and Arachnothera affinis. Pollinator birds for local communities in helping the process of pollinating flowers from agricultural or plantation crops commodities in real terms are not yet known economically. Policies to protect it need to be implemented because the treat from pesticides, burning of land for plantations and recent economic use for pets tends to increase. For this reason, further research needs to be carried out, in particular the diversities of each pollinator bird species with the flowers of the agricultural or plantation crops it pollinates.
