“…It was discovered that the more the females in the households, the more the dependence on NTFPs. Hutauruk et al (2018) conducted a study in Kenya, Malinau District regarding the effect of socio-demographic factors on the dependence on NTFPs. It was found that females depend on NTFPs more than males.…”

“…Dependence on NTFPs was used to refer to the extent to which communities rely on natural forests to achieve their livelihood needs (Talukdar et al, 2021). Dependence on NTFPs is characterized by socio-demographic factors like gender and education level (Hutauruk et al, 2018;Turreira-García et al, 2018;Velho et al, 2019;Silva et al, 2020). Furthermore, physical factors include restriction of cultivation and hunting in nongazetted forests (Mutenje et al, 2011;Singh and Masuku, 2014;Frey et al, 2018), social factors include strong cultural attachment to forests (Newton et al, 2016;Soe and Yeo-Chang, 2019;Uduji and Okolo-Obasi, 2020), and economic factors include forests being a major source of ready income and tourist attractions (Opaluwa et al, 2011;Hutauruk et al, 2018;Turreira-García et al, 2018;Silva et al, 2020).…”

Other factors characterizing the dependence on NTFPs include labor availability, affordability to travel the distance up to the forest, engagement in other activities other than agriculture, and the market for the products (Dorcas and Emmanuel, 2009;Robinson et al, 2014;Sharif et al, 2016;Schunko et al, 2019).…”

The role of forests across the world has been recognized as key natural assets that offer several goods and services, especially to communities adjacent to them. Given this role, there have been minimal efforts to determine the factors characterizing this dependence of communities on non-timber forest products (NTFPs), especially in developing nations. This study surveyed and assessed different factors influencing household dependence on NTFPs in the Marrupa-Mecula Corridor, Niassa Special Reserve, Niassa Province of Mozambique. In total, 377 household members from eight villages attended the interview while employing proportional random sampling. Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression. The study revealed that 90.9% of the households participate in collecting, producing, and selling NTFPs. Three factors, namely, social, economic, and physical, with twenty sub-factors or characteristics were found to have a significant association with dependence on forest resources. They include the availability of NTFPs, taking a collection of NTFPs as a family job, strong cultural attachment to forests, seasonal engagement in collection, nearby forests being home for community leaders, distance to the nearby forest, the housing needs of forests, forests being a major source of medicine, forests being a resource for educational institutions, forests being a major source of household food security, forests being a ready income for households, forests being a tourist attraction in the area, and affordability of distance to markets. The binary logistic regression revealed that gender, age, education, family size, and time spent in the area are significantly associated with dependence on NTFPs. Additionally, strong cultural attachment to forests, seasonal engagement in collection, nearby forests being homes for community leaders, distance to the nearby forest, housing needs, a major source of medicine, education, household food security, ready income, tourist attraction, and affordability of distance to markets were found to have a significant influence. On the contrary, scary dangerous wild animals, restriction of cultivation in non-gazetted forests, restriction of hunting in non-gazetted forests, and forest fires negatively affected the dependence on NTFPs/resources. As a way of achieving sustainable utilization of NTFPs, management plans and strategies need to incorporate these factors characterizing the dependence on NTFPs.

“…Therefore, even though intensive agriculture system with the use of modern technology has been introduced, the local communities in Setulang still do the traditional practices that have been done for a long time inherited from their ancestors from generation to generation. This reflects that for Dayak people, who is the majority in Setulang village, forest is not only a place for living but also a place that brings benefits in terms of social, cultural, and spiritual aspects which is managed using local wisdom and knowledge for their future generation (Ouédraogo et al 2014;Camacho et al 2015;Hutauruk et al 2018a: Hutauruk et al 2018b.…”

Abstract. Merang OP, Lahjie AM, Yusuf S, Ruslim Y. 2020. Productivity of three varieties of local upland rice on swidden agriculture field in Setulang village, North Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 49-56. Swidden agriculture field is a dry land used by traditional farmers to cultivate some varieties of local upland rice intercropped with vegetables, tubers, and fruits. This rotational cultivation system utilizes the land for planting such food crops in one year period before it is left for fallow periods for years. This study aimed to assess the productivity of local upland rice varieties (i.e. Langsat rice, Telang Usan rice, and Pimping rice) cultivated on swidden agriculture field in regard to the fallow periods. This study was conducted in Setulang village, Malinau District, North Kalimantan Province and employed purposive sampling method using interviews of selected respondents and field observation. Among three varieties of rice in this study, Langsat rice had the longest fallow period with 17 years while Pimping rice had the shortest fallow period with 13 years, with the maximum production were 2,635 kg ha-1 and 1,670 kg ha-1, respectively. Meanwhile, Telang Usan rice reached the maximum production on fallow period of 15 years with the total production of 2,208 kg ha-1. Overall, of the three types of rice planted, the results show that the longer the fallow period, the higher the rice production and the shorter the fallow period, the lower the production. Each type of rice has a different amount of production, although it is planted during the same fallow period.

“…The identification of potential advantages of local commodities and the consideration that NTFPs can provide rural livelihoods have led to the belief that more intensive forest management of these products can contribute to development and conservation goals, and lead to initiatives to expand the commercial use of NTFPs [9,10]. NTFPs are the largest determinant of livelihoods for some forest fringe communities and the poor in the tropics [11].…”

The Industrial Revolution era 4.0 directed the development of Non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs) based on development strategies related to aspects of production efficiency and business profitability through rural agro-industry. This research aimed at analysing the profitability and efficiency of the business and determining a sustainable business development strategy. The location of the research was chosen purposive, namely in KPH Kulawi as the location for the pilot project, Central Sulawesi Province. The location of the research was chosen purposively, namely in KPH Kulawi as the location for the pilot project, Central Sulawesi Province. Collecting data related to profitability and production efficiency through interviews using a questionnaire. While the business strategy is determined using a SWOT analysis based on Focus Group Discussion (FGD) data involving stakeholders, namely FMUs, target farmers (farmers who produce raw materials and processing farmers) village government and academics total 10 participants. Based on the research results, it concluded that the relatively high business profitability is associated with an increase in production efficiency. A sustainable business development strategy includes aspects of resource optimization, efficiency of production costs, improvement of product quality at competitive prices and support for market policies and partnerships.
