Abstract

The policy on the management of Industrial Forest Plantation (HTI) is a great opportunity for the local government of North Gorontalo Regency to develop the potential and quality of forest resources. This study aims to examine the impact of government policies on the management of Industrial Forest Plantation for indigenous peoples in North Gorontalo District. Data collection methods are carried out through survey stages, namely field observations, interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) activities with stakeholders. The results obtained that the Industrial Plantation Forest policy on the one hand have a positive impact, but on the other hand have a negative impact. The positive impact is that it can spur regional and rural economic growth and open jobs to overcome unemployment. In addition, the negative impact is a decrease in community agricultural yields and interventions in the utilization of forest products. It is suggested that the regional government provide assistance and supervision on the policies of Industrial Plantation Forests which cover the ownership of Industrial Plantation Forests and community lands. So that the community has certainty about structuring the HTI work area, and the community can actively participate without causing conflict. Keywords: Policy, Forest Management, Indigenous Peoples
