“…Finally, our study contributes to literature estimating the effectiveness of initiatives to reduce deforestation and emissions in Indonesia, e.g. through protected areas (Brun et al 2015, Shah andBaylis 2015), debt-for-nature swaps (Cassimon et al 2011), tenure security and REDD+ projects (Resosudarmo et al 2014), reduced-impact logging (Griscom et al 2019), FSC certification (Miteva et al 2015), community forestry (Santika et al 2017(Santika et al , 2019, community land titling (Kraus et al 2021), multifunctional landscapes (Santika et al 2015), and a moratorium on concessions for oil palm, timber, and logging (Busch et al 2015, Chen et al 2019. It also contributes to a growing effort to integrate global economic models with finescale analysis of land-use change (Hertel et al 2019).…”

Demand-side restrictions on high-deforestation commodities are expanding as a climate policy, but their impact on reducing tropical deforestation and emissions has yet to be quantified. Here we model the effects of demand-side restrictions on high-deforestation palm oil in Europe on deforestation and emissions in Indonesia. We do so by integrating a model of global trade with a spatially explicit model of land-use change in Indonesia. We estimate a European ban on high-deforestation palm oil from 2000–2015 would have led to a 8.9% global price premium on low-deforestation palm oil, resulting in 21,374 ha/yr (1.60%) less deforestation and 21.1 million tCO2/yr (1.91%) less emissions from deforestation in Indonesia relative to what occurred. A hypothetical Indonesia-wide carbon price would have achieved equivalent emission reductions at $0.81/tCO2. Impacts of a ban are small because: 52% of Europe’s imports of high-deforestation palm oil would have shifted to non-participating countries; the price elasticity of supply of high-deforestation oil palm cropland is small (0.13); and conversion to oil palm was responsible for only 32% of deforestation in Indonesia. If demand-side restrictions succeed in substantially reducing deforestation, it is likely to be through non-price pathways.

“…On the other hand, BenYishay et al (2017), using alternative satellite outcome measures, do not find significant reductions resulting from separate aspects of the same land titling process. Similarly, Kraus et al (2021) do not find aggregate reductions in deforestation within a year of the recent rollout of community titling to forest land in Indonesia, and Eisenbarth et al's (2021) recent experimental evaluation of a village-level community monitoring program in Uganda finds that this may simply displace deforestation activity to neighboring, unmonitored areas. Given the heterogeneity in responses, determining more clearly what explains the heterogeneity in the effects of more secure land titling is an important area for future research.…”

Two factors have elevated recent academic and policy interest in tropical deforestation: first, the realization that it is a major contributor to climate change; and second, a revolution in satellite-based measurement that has revealed that it is proceeding at a rapid rate. We begin by reviewing the methodological advances that have enabled measurement of forest loss at a fine spatial resolution across the globe. We then develop a simple benchmark model of deforestation based on classic models of natural resource extraction. Extending this approach to incorporate features that characterize deforestation in developing countries—pressure for land use change, significant local and global externalities, weak property rights, and political economy constraints—provides us with a framework for reviewing the fast-growing empirical literature on the economics of deforestation in the tropics. This combination of theory and empirics provides insights not only into the economic drivers and impacts of tropical deforestation but also into policies that may affect its progression. We conclude by identifying areas where more work is needed in this important body of research.

“…Pemerintah berharap semua bidang tanah di Indonesia bisa bersertipikat pada 2025 (Instruksi Presiden No.2 Tahun 2018). Namun demikian, sekelompok peneliti mengakui dan menuliskan bahwa pendaftaran di Indonesia memang sulit di laksanakan dan sangat pelik (Dower & Potamites, 2014;Duile, 2020;Kraus et al, 2021;Riyadi & Atmoredjo, 2020).

Kedaulatan ekonomi menjadi penting oleh setiap lapisan masyarakat dalam mempertahankan kelangsungan hidupnya. Namun demikian, penguatan jaminan kepastian hukum tanah dan keterbatasan akses permodalan, sebagai landasan berusaha mereka, masih menyisakan persoalan. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menguraikan solusi atas segenap persoalan pendaftaran tanah dalam memberikan jaminan kepastian hukum tanah dan mempermudah akses permodalan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam kajian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif yaitu mengadopsi pendekatan tinjauan literatur sistematis yang dipadukan melalui diskusi informal dengan informan kunci serta memanfaatkan pengalaman peneliti. Hasil penelitian menyebutkan beragam permasalahan seperti duplikasi kepemilikan atas keberagaman dasar pembuktian hak atas tanah, perbedaan kondisi sosial ekonomi setiap lapisan masyarakat, masih signifikannya subjek dan objek atas tanah yang belum berkekuatan hukum, perlu segera diupayakan solusinya. Kajian ini menawarkan beberapa rekomendasi solusi yang dapat dipertimbangkan antara lain: dengan forensik kadaster untuk menuju desa lengkap, membangun ekonomi kerakyatan, menyederhanakan alat bukti kepemilikan hak atas tanah dengan perbaikan peraturan perundangan dan pendekatan gotong royong. Pada akhirnya, program sertipikasi tanah dapat menjadi salah satu kunci dalam menentukan keberlanjutan usaha yang dilakukan di atas maupun di bawah tanah agar tercipta keamanan, keadilan dan kesejahteraan sosial.
