Abstract: |
Different with the agroforestry system in other country, where agriculture is not the basic source of
income, agroforestry in Indonesia is a tree based landuse system with farmer as the main actor in its
management. Thus, type and sustainability of the agroforestry system will greatly depend on
farmers decision in managing the land. Hence, it would be interesting to know how exactly farmers
perspective on agroforestry? What are farmers preferences in utilizing agroforestry system in their
livelihood? And to answer those questions, qualitative analysis strengthened by secondary data was
conducted to the experiences interacting directly with farmers in some action research that had and
have been done by ICRAF in Bungo-Jambi, Batang Toru-North Sumatra, Bantaeng-South Sulawesi
and Konawe-South East Sulawesi. From the analysis, farmers are more interesting with 3 major
research topics, i.e. i) combination of multi-strata trees, ii) pest and disease management, and iii)
market which is related to the price of agroforestry products. Lack of knowledge in those 3 topics
will made farmers changing their agroforestry system into more monocultural system. The results
of this study is useful as reference to develop agroforestri action research that can be useful for
farmers in selecting best agroforestry management system that can contribute positively to the
livelihood enhancement and good environmental condition. |
