Presentation outline:
1. Complementary integrated timber
& NTFPs management
2. Policy constraints & a favourable
policy and regulation framework
3. Overview of research sites &
management characteristics
4. Findings (2 parts)
5. Project intervention in Year 2-4
6. Conclusions & recommendation
1. Three important components of ‘complementary integrated
timber and NTFP management’:
A type of management that supports the enhancement of a
complementary income portfolio at the household level,
which comes from the optimisation of timber and NTFP production
system, supported by more cost-effective value chains
The implementation of the integrated management between
timber and NTFPs will enhance the ecological function of the
landscape
The whole processes are facilitated by favourable policy and
regulation frameworks.
1. insufficient understanding of the trade-offs: allocation of household labour and financial capital
2. ineffective silvicultural practices: do not optimise the production of timber and NTFPs;
3. insufficient understanding of market characteristics and what the markets require to improve the products’ qualities;
4. there has been conflict with integrated uses and management of timber and NTFPs in the region; and
5. unfavourable policy frameworks that prevent production system & value chains from effectively providing fair profit margins
Such integration, however, faces significant impediments:
2. Policy constraints to facilitate
cost-effective smallholders’production, andintegrated marketing of timber & NTFPs

A favourable policy and regulation framework
Policy instruments that increase the comparative advantages
of small-scale forestry management practices, and thus stimulate investments
in its establishment and management.
(Adopted from Enters et al., 2004 and Meijerink, 2007)
Serve as incentives for optimisation of timber and NTFPs production
system and more cost-effective value chains, through policies and
regulations that are:
tailored to local context
resulted from participatory processes: take into account inputs from
stakeholders that are affected in the implementation
benefits and risks are predicted and manageable (including the
transaction costs of implementing relevant policies and regulations).
Participatory action research with scope of activities:
3.1. Review policy and regulatory frameworks that hinder timber and NTFP
production and marketing:
Identify & analyse incentives and specific disincentives to the cots-
effectiveness of production and marketing chains
3.2. Propose improved regulations and government support, focussing on
effective and practical implementation
Develop a policy working group at district level (in consultation with
provincial level relevant agencies) – recommendation to the national level
Collaboratively develop recommendations for applying the improved
policy and regulations with key government agencies.
Properly consulted and refined recommendation
3.3. Support trial applications of the new policies and/or regulations and monitor
the impact of these changes
Participatory analysis on the impacts of different scenarios
1. Smallholders’ farming areas in Indonesia’s poorest provinces of West Nusa Tenggara and East Nusa Tenggara, and
2. Smallholders’ teak production areas on its most densely populated island (Yogyakarta, Central Java).

3. Overview of research sites & management characteristics
Teak (Tectona grandis) is a commercial
wood species important to cottage wood
industries producing furniture and
woodcarving.
NTFPs play important role in enhancing local
household incomes: bamboo, jack fruits, etc
Management characteristics in Yogyakarta, Java:
intensive teak plantations managed on privately-owned lands
Landscape of community teak plantation
and rice fields in Pelat (Sumbawa, WNT)
NTFPs in the local outlet in the city
of Sumbawa (WNT)
Household income portfolio in West Nusa Tenggara (WNT) & East Nusa
Tenggara (ENT): NTFPs are important & limited trading of timber
Pinang (Areca catechu) for menyirih
(daily snacking) (TTS, ENT). Other products:
Tarum (Indigofera sp.) as natural dye material
Timber is not traded commercially and it is
limited for domestic uses (TTS, ENT)
4. Findings (1):directing project intervention:

timber and NTFPs is driven by forestry policy
and regulations

Verification requirements for timber origin,
Administering land certificate/paper, and
Procedures to form cooperative and accessing financial
assistance for developing small-scale and medium enterprises.

1. Current policy frameworks restrain smallholder producers from
benefiting optimally due to:
a. Disincentives to production systems and low cost-effective value
adding industries
b. Overly regulated regulations applied independently to timber and
NTFPs – high transaction costs
c. A lack of understanding about policy and regulation at household
level – increasing community knowledge about policy and regulation
is crucial (part of project intervention).
6. Conclusions (1)
2. Formal legislation and regulations applied at the local level, affecting
local communities in making decisions on their livelihood strategies;
there are inter-relationships between:
(1) complementary incomes coming from timber and NTFP at the household
level;
(2) forest land rights; and
(3) the landscape type of nature reserve or protected forest surrounding the
villages.
3. Roles of middle-men & brokers – trade offs between:
a. (-) Suppressing farm gate prices (enjoying significant profit margin)
b. (+) Covering the costs (markets, transportation & transaction & sources of financial capital for investment & household needs
E.g. 38% of total (formal) costs sold at farm gate
(based on the analysis in West Nusa Tenggara)
Conclusions (2)
Recommendation (working progress):
Conducive overarching institutional and policy framework aims for feasible and competitive smallholder
enterprise management
