Bogor Botanical Garden (KRB) is an ex-situ conservation area where the world-class plants with important assets that need to be preserved are properly collected. Tree damage in BBG should be recognized appropriately by knowing the type and location as well as the severity of the damage. The type of damage that commonly found is Heart rot, weathered wood, Gall Rust of 36% of the total cases found. Damage’s to the tree found on a total of nine areas where most of them located on between crown base and stump (45%). About 50 % of total tree is in very healthy condition with Plot Level Index of 2.93, and therefore, a study site can be categorized as normal or healthy condition. Damaged trees should be monitored consistently using appropriate techniques, such as Forest Health Monitoring (FHM) technique that may allow the management to share the information of the damaged trees to the visitor, so they can travel safely.
