This study analyzes the regulatory gaps in digital forensics regarding the handling of natural resource crimes and the state’s constitutional responsibilities following the enactment of Law No. 1 of 2024. Modern natural resource crimes, such as illegal logging and illegal mining, have evolved to leverage digital technology, leaving complex electronic traces in the form of GPS data and digital documents. However, Indonesia still faces procedural gaps in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), unclear technical standards (SNI 27037:2014 is voluntary in nature), and conflicts between the Information and Electronic Transactions Law (UU ITE) and sectoral NRE laws. This normative legal study employs legislative, conceptual, and case-based approaches. The research findings indicate that the absence of digital forensic authentication standards has fatal implications, as evidenced by the Sidoarjo District Court Decision No. 488/Pid.B/2024/PN Sda, which rejected electronic evidence. This situation constitutes state negligence (staatsverzuim) that violates Article 1(3) and Article 33(3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The study recommends the development of standard digital forensic procedures, the acceleration of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory accreditation, and the harmonization of sectoral regulations

The governance of natural resources (NR) in Indonesia remains marked by structural inequalities that favor large corporations, while indigenous and local communities are marginalized from access, management rights, and equitable benefit-sharing. Although the Constitution and several laws mandate social justice and ecological sustainability, NR governance practices tend to focus on exploitation and investment acceleration, sacrificing environmental protection and meaningful public participation. This study employs a normative juridical approach to analyze weaknesses in sectoral regulations, overlapping authorities, and their implications for the rights of local communities. Drawing on Satjipto Rahardjo’s progressive justice theory, it offers a reformulation of the concept of “controlled by the state” in Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution as a trustee mandate, rather than a monopoly, placing humans, the environment, and justice as the primary orientation. The proposed legal transformation strategies include revising NR regulations, implementing the Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) principle, strengthening community-based management models, recognizing the rights of nature, and establishing participatory oversight mechanisms. This approach is expected to dismantle unequal power relations and direct NR governance toward ecological sustainability, community empowerment, and intergenerational benefit equity.

The economic valuation of natural resources (NR) is an important instrument in supporting evidence-based decision-making, particularly in sustainable environmental management. Cost–Benefit Analysis (CBA) serves as a primary approach to assess the economic feasibility of programs or policies by integrating all benefits and costs, including non-market values. This article presents a systematic literature review of studies employing CBA for NR valuation during the period 2010–2024, based on searches in Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, Taylor & Francis, and Google Scholar, using stringent selection criteria. The review findings indicate that CBA has been widely applied in forest management, biodiversity conservation, land rehabilitation, water and air pollution control, and ecotourism development, providing a quantitative depiction of economic feasibility through indicators such as Net Present Value (NPV), Benefit–Cost Ratio (BCR), and Internal Rate of Return (IRR). Key challenges were identified in non-market valuation, long-term uncertainty, data limitations, and sensitivity to discount rate assumptions. These findings underscore the importance of integrating environmental valuation methods, conducting comprehensive sensitivity analyses, and adopting multidisciplinary approaches to strengthen the application of CBA in sustainable NR management, while also offering strategic recommendations and directions for future research for policymakers and environmental economics scholars.

This study aims to identify the causes of the conflict, analyze its impacts on natural resource management, and examine it through Karl Marx’s conflict theory. This research employed a qualitative method with a case study approach. Primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews with landowners, the village government,and community leaders. Secondary data were collected from official documents and related literature. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and qualitatively, referring to Karl Marx’s key concepts such as class conflict, control over the means of production, and alienation. The findings reveal that the conflict is caused by unclear land ownership status, the village government’s economic interests, lack of communication and transparency, and overlapping regulations. The impacts include hampered natural resource management and conservation, uncontrolled exploitation of resources, decreased community participation in sustainable tourism development, and potential environmental damage due to uncoordinated land use. Based on Karl Marx’s analysis, the conflict reflects class struggle between landowners as the dominant class and the village government as the managing class seeking to take over the resources. This study suggests the need for clear regulations, transparent decision-making processes, and active participation from all parties to achieve fair and sustainable natural resource management.

This article concludes that the integration of Islamic studies and environmental science offers a comprehensive and relevant ecological paradigm to address environmental challenges in the modern era.

The utilization of clam shells as adsorbents has attracted considerable attention due to their ability to adsorb contaminants such as heavy metals, hazardous substances, and oil. Clam shells, which are composed mainly of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), possess a porous structure that favors adsorption. Calcium carbonate imparts alkaline properties that neutralize acidic effluents and promote the formation of precipitates. Physical and chemical modifications can enhance the surface area and porosity of the shell, thereby enlarging the active sites for contaminant sorption. Clam shells heavy metals such as Pb, Cd, Hg, organic substances and can be used for oil spill remediation due to their hydrophobic and oleophilic properties. The calcination process converts the shells into a material that contaminants such as TSS, COD, and BOD. This utilization not only mitigates pollution but also creates opportunities for adsorbent products with economic value, especially in coastal areas where shell waste is abundant. However, this application must take into account ecological and health impacts, as overharvesting and non-environmentally friendly processing can damage the ecosystem. A sustainable approach with environmentally friendly regulations and technologies is essential to maximize the benefits of clam shells as adsorbents.

This journal looks at the legal concerns of managing natural resources by producing compost using a market-based method based on garbage. This study's primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy and compliance of the legal requirements controlling the use of market trash as a raw material for compost fertilizer. The study's findings indicate that there are several pertinent laws that offer a legal framework for market waste management, including the Environmental Law and government waste management rules. However, there are obstacles to the law's implementation and enforcement, such as a lack of knowledge among business actors and oversight flaws. To ensure sustainability and efficiency in managing market waste as a resource for making compost, this study also found that, despite the existence of existing regulations, regulatory updates and harmonization are still required. To maximize the environmental and economic benefits of market waste management, this research recommends improvements in regulations and law enforcement, as well as increased education and training for business actors.The results of the study indicate that the utilization of market waste for making compost has great potential in supporting organic farming and reducing the volume of waste that ends up in landfills. However, the implementation of this program requires a deep understanding of applicable regulations, as well as support from the government and the community. This article concludes that comprehensive legal-based waste management can improve the efficiency and sustainability of natural resource management, as well as have a positive impact on community welfare.

The term "agraria" is used in the Indonesian government administration to describe "land", both agricultural and non-agricultural land. For example, by Decree No. 26 of 1988, the National Farming Authority was established as the Director General of Agriculture of the Department of Home Affairs. Agrarian law (Agrarisch Recht) in the administrative district of the Dutch Indian government is confined to a set of legislative regulations that provide a legal basis for the rulers to implement agricultural policy. In this study, the method of normative analysis is used. Normative law research or library research is a type of research that studies documents using various secondary data such as laws. Within Indonesia there are a variety of natural resources, including fishing, mangrove forests, while the regulations that govern the Indonesian seas vary in various aspects, among others: the Persian Sea, Wiayah Sea, Continental Land, Exclusive Economic Zone, Additional Zone, Overseas Sea. In conclusion, maritime agrarian law is very important in understanding and utilizing natural resources related to land and waters. Marine natural resources play a vital role inining the balance of global ecosystems as well as providing economic benefits to communities. Within the framework of sustainable development, we are faced with the great challenge of understanding and using marine agricultural resources wisely.
