Abstract: This study aims to
determine the activity of the utilization of forest resources and to know local
community wisdom related to protection forest in the Alu Village areas. This
research was conducted by using Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA) method. Respondents
in this study were communities living in and around the protection forest area
and conducting activities in the forms of utilizing the forest resources. The
observed variables were the forms of community activities in the protection
forest and local community wisdom in using the forest resources. The results
show that activities of villagers consist of: 1) the use of timber for home
construction or repair and for fuel wood, 2) the utilization of rattan, 3) the
utilization of bamboo, 4) the utilization of palm, 5) the utilization of honey
bee and other forest products. In addition, local community wisdom in the
utilization of forest products was found to be in the form of prevailing
institutions in the village of Alu. The forms of institutions are forest harvesting
institutions, forest land use institutions, and forest protection and security
institutions. In general, Alu Villagers have the awareness to preserve the
environment, ecological balance and sustainability of the population to be
bequeathed to their generation. Yet, the wisdom is prone to turn down
particularly in the institution of timber utilization.
