It has long, orange Garut has become popular and Garut trademark. Therefore, in accordance with Local Government. 9 In 1981, tangerine has been used as components of regional symbols Garut. Apart from being the hallmark of Garut fruit, citrus is a commodity sub-sectors of food crops that have a bright prospect with a high economic value.

As a typical regional commodities, Citrus Garut have a high chance to be developed because of the comparative and competitive as well as the opportunity is still wide open. With the various efforts made to improve the quality and quantity of production, Citrus Garut will be able to compete with similar products both at the national level as well as the Orange l Medan, Pontianak Oranges and orange imports such as Mandarin Oranges and orange New Zealand.

Investment in commodities is prospective and could provide the economic added value is high enough for both farmers and investors. Of the feasibility study conducted in 1997 showed, for the citrus area of ​​1 ha (about 500 trees) will give a real advantage in the 4th year of Rp 39,966,000.00

As a regional center for citrus production, Garut Government, supported by relevant parties continue to strive to improve the quantity and quality of production. Currently there is no source that reported the specific capacity of mandarin. According to the citrus growers who contacted the garut.go.id, in its heyday, citrus-producing areas is the best Garut Cigadog, Wanaradja which now goes into the District Sucinaraja. Acknowledge the source of the Orange glory Garut destroyed when the area covered with the ashes of the eruption of Mount Galunggung a thickness up to 1 meter more.

It should be recognized that the first triumph of Orange Main Page can not be felt fully present. As an illustration of its power, at the end of 1987 the population was still recorded 1.3 million citrus trees spread over an area of ​​approximately 2600 hectares, with production quantities produced approximately 26,000 tons / year. However, over the next 5 years later, the population declined drastically. At the end of 1992 approximately 52 000 live trees. So it is not surprising that today, we do not see a row of orange seller Bandung along Main Page - Main Page, or we will not find on a bus hawkers who peddle oranges original Index.php ..

Declining population in extreme Garut oranges are preferred because the disease attacks citrus vein phloem degeneration (CVPD) derived from a bacteria (not viruses) called lybers bacterial aniaticum. Based on the results of research by Japanese investigators, French, and LIPI known that bacteria that eat citrus crop is not transmitted through seed or soil taken from diseased citrus plants, but is transmitted through a kind of insect citrus psyllid (diaphorina citry). Orange fleas transmit the disease by sucking fluid of diseased leaves, lime leaves and sucking sound. Now it was just how effectively eradicate insect-borne disease is not spread so widely.

Disclosure of the source of the disease, making Garut regency definite step in the rehabilitation efforts that salahsatunya Garut citrus production development efforts at the site nonendemis .. Garut regency and the efforts of the farmers were slowly but surely is beginning to show results. Now, it has been re-planted over 400,000 trees of orange, or approximately 40% of the target over an area of ​​1,000 ha scattered in the District Samarang, Pasirwangi, Bayongbong, Cisurupan, Cilawu, Karangpawitan, Pameungpeuk, Cikelet, Cisompet, and Cibalong. Hopefully this effort will restore back to productivity as one of Orange Garut Garut identity.

A Brief History Garut

Background- Garut history begins with the dissolution of the district in 1811 by Limbangan Daendels by reason of the Limbangan coffee production declined to the lowest point zero and the regent refused to grow indigo (indigo). On 16 February 1813, the Lieutenant Governor in Indonesia, which at that time occupied by Raffles, has issued a decree on the re-establishment of thousands Limbangan District in the Holy city. For a City District, the presence of the Holy judged not to meet the requirements of the region because the area is quite narrow.

In this context, the Regent Duke Limbangan Adiwijaya (1813-1831) formed a committee to find a suitable place for the Capital District. At first, the committee found Cimurah, about 3 km east of the Holy (Currently the village is known as Kampung Pidayeuheun). But in places difficult to obtain clean water so it does not exactly become the capital city. Furthermore the committee to locate the Holy westward, about 5 km and a suitable place to serve as the capital city. In addition to fertile land, the place has a spring that flows into the river and the scenery beautiful Cimanuk surrounded by mountains, like Mount Cikuray, Papandayan Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Mount Galunggung, Mountain and Mount Karacak Talaga Bodas.

When the springs are found in the form of a small lake that covered thorny shrubs (Marantha), a committee "kakarut" or scratched hands until they bled. In the group of the committee, also participated in a Europe that come to fix or "ngabaladah" place. When he saw the hand of one of the organizers bleed, immediately asked: "Why is bleed?" The person who scratched replied, his hands kakarut. Europeans or the Netherlands is mimicked kakarut are not well versed with the tongue so that's called a "gagarut".

Since then, workers in the party committee named the thorny plants as "Ki Main Page" and telaganya named "Ci Main Page". (Location of this lake is now occupied by buildings SLTPI, SLTPII, and junior Garut IV). With the discovery of Ci Garut, the area around it known as the Main Page .. Garut spark name was approved by the Regent Duke Limbangan Adiwijaya to be Limbangan Capital District.

On 15 September 1813 conducted a groundbreaking ceremony and construction of capital infrastructure, such as shelter, pavilion, office assistant resident, mosques, and the square. In front of the hall, between the square with a pavilion there is a "Babancong" where the Regent with other government officials deliver a speech in public. After the spots had been completed, the Capital District Limbangan moved to the Main Page of the Bible around the year 1821. Based on the Governor-General Decree No: 60 dated May 7, 1913, the name was changed to District Limbangan Garut and thousands of Garut city on July 1, 1913. At that time, the Regent of the incumbent is Wiratanudatar RAA (1871-1915). Garut city at that time included three villages, namely Kulon Town Village, the Village Wetan Town, and Village Margawati. Garut district includes the districts Garut, Bayongbong, Cibatu, Tarogong, Leles, Balubur Limbangan, Cikajang, Bungbulang and Pameungpeuk.

In 1915, RAA Wiratanudatar succeeded by his nephew the Duke of Karta Legawa Suria (1915-1929). During his reign the exact date is August 14, 1925, by decision of the Governor-General, Garut regional government passed a stand-alone (autonomous). Autonomous authority entitled to run Garut in some cases, the maintenance problems associated with roads, bridges, sanitation, and polyclinics. During the period 1930-1942, the Regents who served in the Duke of Garut Moh. Suria Kartalegawa Moses. He was appointed Regent Garut in 1929 succeeded his father the Duke of Karta Legawa Suria (1915-1929).

Physical development of the City

Until the 1960s, the physical development of the City Main Page is divided into three periods, namely the first (1813-1920) developed in a linear fashion. At that time the City of Garut many buildings founded by the Dutch colonial government for the benefit of government, to invest in the plantation business, extracting mineral resources and tourist attraction. Residential development, especially around the square and extends eastward along the way Societeit Straat.

The second period (1920-1940), the City developed a concentric Garut. Changes occur because the project is given in the first period of service for the residents. Tatakota face began to change with the establishment of several city facilities, such as railway stations, post offices, pharmacies, schools, hotels, shops (owned by China, Japan, India and Europe) and the market.

The third period (1940-1960's), tend to follow the development of the City Garut multiple nuclei theory. This development can be seen at trade zones, education, housing and population growth.

General state of the City

At the beginning of the 20th century, the City refers to the Main Page of the heterogeneous pattern of society as a result of urbanization. Community diversity and growth of the City of Garut closely related to efforts estate and attractions in the area Garut.

Dutch people who contributed to the development of plantations and farms in the area of ​​Garut is KF Holle. To commemorate his services, the Dutch colonial government to perpetuate the name Holle Garut a street in the City, the road Holle (Jl.Mandalagiri) and make a statue of a half chest Holle in Garut Square.

The opening of plantations is followed by the construction of hotels on the Year 1917. Hotels are a place to stay and entertainment for plantation employees or tourists who come from abroad.

Determination Day Main Page

As agreed from the beginning, all societies have to accept that Garut anniversary Garut not fall on May 17, 1913 is when renaming a Garut Limbangan District, but at the town of Garut was opened and built infrastructure in preparation for the capital of Limbangan . Therefore, beginning in 1963 Garut Day is celebrated every September 15, based on the findings of the Fact Finding Team History of the reference date of 15 September 1813 on the text contained in the bridge Leuwidaun before the renovation. But the public confidence on the basis of making the day so Garut changed. In PERDA Kab. Garut No. DT II. 11 of 1981 on the Determination Day Garut which was enacted in the Regional Gazette on January 30, 1982, declared that the Day is considered more appropriate to the Main Page On March 17, 1813.

Tracking the anniversary of Garut rests on the question of when it first appeared the term "Main Page". As described in the Background above, the phrase that appears when "ngabaladah" in finding a place for the capital of which was ordered RAA Limbangan Adiwijaya as Regent, which was inaugurated on February 16, 1813. Facts about the laying of the stone bridge Leuwidaun first is dated 15 September 1918 are also counted. Thus, the origin of the blaze of "Main Page" is believed to be on a day between February 16, 1813 sd 15 September 1918.

From a variety of search is known that the Regent Adiwijaya in making policy always ask for a fatwa from the Islamic elders who allegedly because the Saints were cultured in Godog, tomb figures that Muslim. Rooted in the tradition of the timing system, it is estimated that the committee is "ngabaladah" capital Mulud as ordered in the month which is considered good at the time. "Ngabaladah" not possible at date 1 because of the belief Sundanese Mulud at the time was that a good day during the full moon falls between 12-14 Mulud. Because, 12 Mulud regarded as the peak day Maulud anniversary of Prophet Muhammad, the most diiyakini allows for "ngabaladah" is dated 14 Mulud. According to the calculation of the Roofer's work, the conversion of 14 Mulud 1228 Hijri that is dated March 17, 1913. (from:garut)
