| Summary: | <p>It has been known that out of 144 million ha offorestland in Indonesia, some ofthem have suffered<br />
from deforestation. land degradation. and stand impoverishment. The wood production ofnaturaJ forest<br />
is reasonably low and its potential to meet wood demand has been declining steadily. The program for<br />
developing plantation forest (HTI) began in 1980s with the objective of reducing the pressure to the<br />
existing natural forest. It is apparent that the HTI project has not met the target in terms of size and<br />
productivity.<br />
Indonesia has a long experience with long-rotation plantation, such as teak (feetana granJis) and<br />
Pinus merkusii, particularly in Java. Experiences have also been gained in the plantation establishment of<br />
dipterocarps. Excellent plots of dipterocarps in Java, successful reforestation programs with P. merkusii<br />
in South Sulawesi and tlourishing development of communi1¥ |
