Out of the woods: social capital and smallholder dairy farmers' access to state-owned agroforestry lands in West Java, Indonesia
Most of the community-based forest management (CBFM/PHBM) literature has confirmed the role of social capital (SC) in helping forest-dependent communities access the state-forest areas, which includes its agroforestry lands. Nevertheless, the dynamics of SC to enable the smallholder dairy farmer (SDF) communities to access the agroforestry lands, including gaining, controlling, and maintaining the access, do not receive much attention. This research aims to examine the contribution of SC in promoting SDF communities in Indonesia to access agroforestry lands. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with 40 dairy farmers and 25 key informants, focus group discussions, field observations, and document analysis by using qualitative case studies of four SDF communities in West Java province. The findings reveal that SC plays considerable roles in enabling various mechanisms or collective actions, by which the smallholders acquire affordable and long-term access, as well as increasing the communities’ awareness of sustainable forest management. First, SC establishes various affordable options to access agroforestry lands, which include informal access through land-to-labor exchanges between authorities and communities, right-to-use transfer systems, hereditary access schemes, and information sharing among farmers. Furthermore, SC provides low-cost mechanisms for controlling and maintaining access via fenceless agroforestry patch border control and peer-to-peer land supervision. Second, SC contributes to creating mechanisms that lead to long-term access via institution-based systems in maintaining agroforestry land boundaries and function, including the village–forest border system, the land sharing and land sparing use system, the creation of renewable land tenure, and the gradual sanction system. Lastly, the knowledge shared by the forest authority and common knowledge fostered by communities reinforced the communities’ awareness of sustainable forest management.
期刊介绍:
Agroforestry Systems is an international scientific journal that publishes results of novel, high impact original research, critical reviews and short communications on any aspect of agroforestry. The journal particularly encourages contributions that demonstrate the role of agroforestry in providing commodity as well non-commodity benefits such as ecosystem services. Papers dealing with both biophysical and socioeconomic aspects are welcome. These include results of investigations of a fundamental or applied nature dealing with integrated systems involving trees and crops and/or livestock. Manuscripts that are purely descriptive in nature or confirmatory in nature of well-established findings, and with limited international scope are discouraged. To be acceptable for publication, the information presented must be relevant to a context wider than the specific location where the study was undertaken, and provide new insight or make a significant contribution to the agroforestry knowledge base
