“…Since the establishment of the Indonesian timber legality assurance system through P.38/Menhut-II/2009 as a mandatory instrument, all timber harvested from private forest must be assured its legality through a set of assessment process (M. Sahide & Naufal, 2017). Economically, most of the private forest farmers in Indonesia are relatively low income and they have to spend a lot of money for the assessment process costs upfront (starting from US$ 690 depending on the area to be certified) while the premium price promised after obtaining certified timber legality (S-LK) is not guaranteed (Laraswati et al, 2020). Moreover, based on the regulation (P.30/Menlhk/Setjen/PHPL.3/3/2016), the S-LK is only valid for 10 years from the time of issuance.…”

Smallholder tree planting has long been practiced by rural people throughout the tropics. However, the competitiveness of Indonesian wood products has decreased in the global market. Indonesia's wooden furniture for instance, was assessed to have declined in competitiveness during 2006 to 2015. In addition, the World Economic Forum in its latest annual Global Competitiveness Index report (2019) lowered Indonesia's position from 45th position to 50th in the product market. Although the small-and medium-scale wood processing businesses have begun to focus on commercial forest management goals, the way in which the competitiveness of their timber products is affected by forestry regulations remains a debate with significant policy implications. New regulations have been designed and implemented to solve various problems associated with smallholder-managed forests, such as specific administration of smallholder forest products, regulation of access to forests for people living near forests, and attempts to bridge the gap in forest management expertise between forestry companies and rural communities. However, rather than producing positive results for those concerned, new regulations appear to have become an additional constraint. This study aimed to map how regulations have influenced smallscale tree planting and wood processing industries in Indonesia, both directly and indirectly. It also examines the extent to which these regulations can be reformed to become an efficient and effective legal instrument in governing small-scale tree planting and wood processing industries. In addition, this study explored two less examined issues, namely: (1) Have the regulations become too complex and constraining? and (2) How does Indonesia create an 'enabling' regulatory environment? The study found that excessive regulation of commercial timber production reduces the interest by smallholders in tree growing. In addition, complicated regulations tend to increase the transaction costs incurred by those involved in commercial timber production.

“…It depends on the site, cropping pattern, and plant type (Hardjanto, 2001;Achmad & Purwanto, 2014). In addition to their production and economic functions, private forests also serve ecological and social functions (Olivi et al, 2015;Laraswati et al, 2020;Kurniawan et al, 2020). In 2014, the production of logs from private forests exceeded that from natural forests.…”

Agroforestry is a cropping pattern that is commonly applied to private forest management in Indonesia. Agroforestry based private forest is a land-based silviculture that incorporates forestry plants with agricultural crops, plantation crops, and multi-purpose plants. One of the felling techniques used in agroforestry based private forests is the sandat-felling technique (SFT), which is a rope-assist felling technique. The felling technique was used to protect the remaining stand of the agroforestry based private forest. This technique is an innovation in the harvesting of agroforestry based private forests in Indonesia. The time consumption and productivity of this technique are not yet known. This study aims to assess the working time and productivity of SFT in agroforestry based private forests in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia. The observed tree-felling technique included rope installation and tree-felling operations. The performance of the SFT was evaluated by analyzing its working time and productivity. The results of the study showed that the total working time of the SFT was 8.65 minutes tree-1, which consisted of 33.34% for rope installation and 66.66% for felling operation. The productivity of the SFT was 2.02 m3 hour-1.

“…The NGOs of Indonesia have made their mission to pursue those companies that violate environmental laws (Masterpole, Teleposky, Thompson, & Zaghloul, 2019). In the late 1990s, the NGOs and the companies of Indonesia were not protected by the government, and corporate social responsibility played an essential role for the companies at that time to help them in securing them from society (Laraswati et al, 2020;Goo, et al, 2020). The importance of trust on NGO's in Indonesia can be evaluated through given graph below which shows that almost 62% of people in Indonesia trust upon NGO's as compared to other sectors and firms (see Figure 1).…”

In the Indonesian market, excessive pressure faced by the local NGOs in their social cause oriented operating activities and this paper is majorly based on exploring those external factors that positively enhanced the social performance of such organizations within this developing nation. In most cases, the environmental-friendly practices are initiated by a company in order to become a more sustainable organization in the advanced competitors and customer market. This paper is based on online survey-based quantitative research where the 355 participants based valid outcomes are studied and evaluated through structural equation modeling statistical test implementation. According to this model results, external pressure caused a major favorable influence on the development of strategic sustainability orientation and sustainable entrepreneurship practice that motivate the organizational management to enhance their social performance within the Indonesian state. This data is informative for the Indonesian social workers, the business community and other related NGO's to consider the external environmental factors in their effective decision-making process. Also, the related field scholars can utilize this information in their discussion portion. No doubt, this is informative research, but still, there are some deficiencies within this paper like lack of psychological (interview), etc, which can be covered by the upcoming scholars.
