Abstract

Abstrak: Luas hutan Indonesia semakin berkurang setiap tahunnya dan tingginya tekanan dari masyarakat menyebabkan akses masyarakat terhadap hutan semakin masif, sehingga perlu adanya solusi untuk mengatasi permasalahan tenurial dan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Salah satu kebijakan yang ditawarkan sebagai solusi adalah perhutanan sosial dengan sistem multiusaha kehutanan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merumuskan strategi pengembangan pemanfaatan HHBK dengan multiusaha. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan kombinasi metode SWOT dan AHP untuk merumuskan strategi pengembangan yang terbaik. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan, strategi terbaik untuk mengembangkan multiusaha pemanfaatan HHBK adalah strategi yang berorientasi pada pertumbuhan yang berfokus pada strategi SO, yaitu: meningkatkan jumlah kombinasi jenis, diversifikasi usaha, memanfaatkan peran KPH dan pemerintah daerah untuk mendukung diversifikasi pemanfaatan HHBK, terlibat aktif dalam berbagi informasi yang dilakukan baik kepada sesama anggota maupun kepada pihak luar, melakukan promosi produk atau komoditi untuk memperluas pasar dan menarik minat investor, serta pemberdayaan melalui kelembagaan masyarakat dengan pendampingan dan pelatihan. Strategi tersebut diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kualitas hutan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat sehingga fungsi utama hutan tetap terjaga namun tetap memberikan manfaat bagi masyarakat.

Abstract

The approval of mining permits in the area of the Central Sulawesi Forest Park to a private company caused the emerging of illegal mining by the local community. This study aims to identify the characteristics and social capital of local community miners and their role in the conflict and community resistance. This is explorative research using a qualitative approach. Data was collected through a structured interview to 30 miners as respondents and in-depth interviews with various related stakeholders such as tribal leaders and local government. The results showed that although the social capital of the local community miners was relatively moderate, it could encourage community resistance to the government's efforts to close the illegal mining. The results were affected by a common knowledge that mining is the only source of income for the community. Also, the support of tribal leaders and village officers became a symbolic power that could propel the collective actions of the local community miners. Keywords: forest park, illegal gold mining, social capital, conflict, collective action

Abstract

This study addresses a gap in understanding the specific economic impacts of community engagement in Ruteng Nature Tourism Park (TWA Ruteng) on local livelihoods. While prior research highlights general benefits of tourism, limited attention has been given to the direct economic activities and their outcomes within TWA Ruteng. The objectives of this research are to analyze the economic activities of the Ngkiong Ndora Village community and evaluate their effects on household income. Data collection was conducted through interviews, observations, documentation, and literature review. Participants were categorized into three strata based on land ownership: 34 respondents in stratum I, 60 in stratum II, and 12 in stratum III. The data were analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods to provide a comprehensive understanding of economic dynamics. The results reveal that the community engages in land cultivation, wood utilization, and the exploitation of non-timber resources. These activities have a significant positive economic impact, contributing 76.44% to household income and increasing income levels by 76.94%. This study offers novel insights into the interaction between local communities and nature tourism parks, particularly in Indonesia. It highlights the importance of integrating community involvement into tourism development strategies and illustrates how such engagement can yield substantial economic benefits. Additionally, it provides empirical evidence to inform policies that balance conservation efforts with local economic development, ensuring sustainability and improved livelihoods.

Abstract

Social Forestry data 2015-2019 shows that out of 712,560 households, 94% of family heads are male and only 6% are female. LMDH Wono Lestari has successfully optimized this program by involving the community and Social Forestry Business Group (KUPS). However, no data is showing the low access, involvement, and gender equality in forest management in Social Forestry areas. This study aims to analyze the roles of men and women in productive activities in gender-based Social Forestry management. The research was conducted in Burno Village, LMDH Wono Lestari involving 71 respondents consisting of married couples determined using purposive sampling. The results showed that gender has a significant role in social forestry management. Men and women contribute significantly to productive activities, with each having different expertise and local knowledge. This research makes an important contribution in filling the gap in the literature regarding the role of women in Social Forestry schemes, especially in relation to household economic welfare. Unlike previous studies that generally only highlight women's involvement quantitatively or administratively, this research explores in-depth the forms of women's contribution in productive activities, decision-making, and gender division of labor both inside and outside the domestic sphere.

Abstract

Community forests play a crucial role in improving rural livelihoods, yet their management often faces challenges related to low income contribution, ecological sustainability, and limited social empowerment. This study aims to analyze the economic, ecological, and social benefits of community forest management and to assess their contribution to the welfare of members of the Sedyo Makmur Farmer Group in Gunung Kidul, Special Region of Yogyakarta. The research employs a descriptive case study approach by combining qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews, direct observations, and analysis of household income. Data were examined using income contribution analysis and SWOT analysis to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in forest management. The results show that community forest management provides benefits in three dimensions. Economically, community forests contribute 29.32% to household income, complemented by secondary crops and livestock. Ecologically, applying variable planting spacing improves tree growth and ecosystem conservation. Socially, forest management fosters collective action and diversifies livelihood strategies. The study concludes that optimal management strategies should focus on product diversification, member capacity building, and ecotourism development. These strategies are expected to enhance welfare, ensure sustainability, and strengthen the role of community forests within social forestry programs.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between livelihood strategies and the level of household welfare among farmers in The Alam Lestari Community Forestry. A total of 93 respondents were purposively selected and collected through questionnaires, interviews, and observations. Descriptive analysis was employed to depict the variation in livelihood assets and strategies, while the relationship between variables was examined using Spearman's Rank Correlation. The results reveal that livelihood strategies are primarily dominated by intensification and diversification, with migration not being a common strategy. Physical capital and social capital are the most significant assets supporting the diversity of strategy, while human capital and financial capital are relatively limited. Household welfare is moderate, with social indicators being the lowest component. Correlation tests show a positive and significant relationship between livelihood strategies and welfare (r = 0.407; p < 0.01), as well as a substantial relationship between livelihood assets and the variation in livelihood strategies. These findings emphasize that strengthening livelihood assets, particularly the physical and social aspects, plays a crucial role in fostering more adaptive livelihood strategies, which, in turn, contribute to improved household welfare among Community Forestry Farmers, and to the sustainability of community-based forest resource management
