Table 3 - Two Forestry Production Systems


State Forestry

Community Forestry, Tree Husbandry and Farm Forestry

Objectives

One dimensional, raw material for industry, protection.

Multipurpose and socio- economic objectives. Related to the consumer & producer. Self-reliance.

Technology

Imported, centralized, precedence over local technologies. Uniform and strictly adhered to

Varies. Indigenous, locally manageable. Imported technology must suit resources and needs.

Local Institutions

Unimportant as long as no encroachment.

Important. Used and supported as a resource.

Peoples Participation

Insignificant. People are target groups and consumers to be motivated, uplifted and/or employed.

A requirement for relevant production. People are a resource, an asset to be supported. Involvement and responsibility.

Role of People versus Experts

People are the problem experts the solution.

People are the solution and a resource. Experts support their development.

Local Solutions

Uniform

Diverse

Land

Government

Communal. Village, private.

Labour

Employed

Employed in the local system or self-employed.

Organization

Centralized "work order" system

Local, village production unit (e.g.. extended family).

Professional role

Segmentation

Integration with other farming activities.

Structure and Magnitude

Few large plantations with uniform management

A large number of small areas with diverse input requirements and production.

Legislation

Protective

Productive

Time Perspective

Long Term

Short term, or limited resources for delayed benefits.

Relation to other activities

Separate

Integrated in space and time in the small farmers' production system.
