Abstract:
A study collecting information on general characteristics of community livelihoods, local farming systems and land-use systems based on community perspectives was done in South and Southeast Sulawesi. It aims to establish baseline information for AgFor Sulawesi project interventions to enhance the agroforestry and forestry livelihood systems of rural communities.
More than half (57%) of South Sulawesi area is forested, with the remaining area occupied by wet paddy systems, wetlands and arable land. In Southeast Sulawesi, the agriculture sector contributed to 38% of the region’s economic growth. In both provinces smallholders produce important commodities such cacao, coconut, maize and others.
