| description |
The objective of this study was to determine the types of conflicts between dairy
farming and social forestry programs in two selected villages in Lembang, West
Java, Indonesia, and make recommendation on how to resolve it. Three
stakeholders were involved in this conflict, namely, dairy farmers, social forestry
participants, and State Forest Corporation (SFC). In order to understand the
conflicts, the study surveyed the socio-economic conditions of the dairy farmers
and social forestry participants, examined the dairy farming and social forestry
practices by selected dairy farmers and social forestry participants. A
questionnaire survey was carried in 2001 out on a random sample of 158 dairy
farmers and on a purposive sample of 60 social forestry participants. In addition,
data were also gathered from five purposively selected SFC officials. Conflicts were found to exist and persist between actors as well among the
members of the actors. Competition for land and forages were the sources of
conflicts between the dairy farmers and social forestry participants. Among the
social forestry participants themselves, conflicts arose in the course of obtaining
tumpangsari sites as well as tumpangsari plots.
Conflicts between SFC officials and dairy farmers revolve around the issues of the
use of state forestland by the agriculture farmers and the scope of social forestry
program which pays a lot attention on agriculture plantation. The paternalistic
attitude of the SFC officials as well as their underestimation of the capacity of the
social forestry participants has often created conflicts between the two groups of
actors. Conflicts between the two actors have also taken place due to divergence
in their interests as well as the limited management rights given to the social
forestry participants.
Based on the experience of other social forestry program in Java, conflicts among
the social forestry participants for tumpangsari sites and plots could be resolved
by means of a lottery system and lengthening the tumpangsari period. In order to
resolve the conflicts between the dairy farmers and the social forestry participants,
it is recommended that both parties meet and discuss in a negotiation process.
One important aspect of the negotiation is the SFC officials must recognize the
rights of access of the dairy farmers to the state forestland. |
