Overview

This project aimed to identify how commercial forestry could increase the incomes of smallholders and scale out the broader benefits of commercial forestry to local communities and industries.

With the Indonesian Government encouraging its forest industries to source supplies from sustainably managed plantations and community-based commercial forestry, and progressively introducing the Timber Legality Assurance System, this project, aimed to strengthen business networks to enhance the commercial benefits from community-based commercial forestry for smallholders; increase the capacity and number of smallholders able to make informed decisions about their silvicultural approach and likely returns; and analyse the policy context and support policy reform to enable it to become a profitable investment choice for smallholders.
