Abstract
This report details the results of a consultancy carried
out by the authors for CIFOR from September 1997
through February 1998. The aims of the project were
as a follows:
1) to identify tree planting activities currently prominent
in Indonesia;
2) to seek reasons for their ascendancy, with specific
reference to influential actors capable of favouring
certain activities and holding back others; of
particular interest were the activities of regional
government agencies which were hypothesised to be
more instrumental than central government policy
per se in determining what actually took place on
the ground;
3) to monitor the perceptions of local and transmigrant
populations regarding the opportunities and
constraints associated with particular tree planting
options; and
4) to briefly examine the environmental impacts of
dominant tree planting activities
