Abstract

Mangrove Rhizophora sp has propagules that are elongated in shape, which after reaching into the sediment will grow into saplings. Propagules Rhizophora sp. tends to release after hitting the sediment when exposed to waves, so that by being anchored, propagules can survive until they grow into saplings. Anchors for tubular propagules with a length of 20 cm with diameters of 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 inch were tested, the analysis using one way Anova showed the difference was p<0.001 followed by the tukey post hoc test which showed that the anchor with a length of 20 cm with a diameter of 4 inches had the ability to withstand high the highest with a weight of 9,618.33+96 g. The results of the application in the field showed that an anchor model D with a length of 20 cm with a diameter of 4 inches was able to hold 4 saplings compared to propagules without an anchor.
