Abstract:
Analytic hierarchy process is a decision-making framework used for largescale,
multiparty, multicriteria decision analysis developed by Thomas L
Saaty in the 1970s. This framework was adopted and used in TreeFarm
module to elucidate the decision-making process in tree species and farming
system selection within different gender groups in Sulawesi, Indonesia.
In this method, in addition to ranking tree species and farming systems based
on preferences, the sole output of the direct scoring method and the relative
importance of each criterion are identified. Moreover, ranks of preferences of
each tree species and farming system are developed for each criterion. Often,
the list of criteria reflects the landscape context and other important information
about households and gender classes. The more similar the list among various
groups or stakeholders, the stronger the landscape context is, in relation to the
larger community.
