Abstract:
This paper provides an overview of the evolving management approach of the State Forest Company (SFC or Perusahaan Umum Perhutani (Perum Perhutani)), which manages Java’s vast forest estate. Over the past twenty years, the SFC has launched various programs aimed at simultaneously raising national revenues from timber harvest and achieving improved economic and social welfare for the communities living within and around the state forests. On Java, approximately six thousand villages with a total population of 30 million people are located in the vicinity of forest land and about 20-30% of them are classified as poor. The objective of examining the progress and shortcomings of the ongoing management approaches in Java’s state forestry sector is to stage a discussion on the future direction of Java’s forest management.
