The Indonesian government, in cooperation with UNDP and UNREDD, has launched an English version of it comprehensive forest management index.

This index provides an analysis of forest management conditions and their implication for the REDD+ programme.Indonesia is one of the countries that has committed itself to reducing green house gas emissions by over 20% by 2020.

Most fire alerts on land leased to plantation companies

The Tropical Forest Foundation website is reporting analysis of available concession maps from official national and provincial government offices, superimposed on daily fire alerts from NASA. This work was undertaken by the World Resources Institute (WRI), Eyes on the Forest, and the World Agroforestry Centre.

The analysis shows that the bulk of fire alerts occurred on land leased out to plantation companies for the development of large industrial oil palm and acacia plantations.

The authors of the report say “There are two caveats to these analyses: NASA’s fire alerts do not indicate the shape and size of the area burned, so it is difficult to accurately determine the use of the land from these data. More importantly, however, is that if the available maps of industrial concession boundaries for oil palm and pulpwood (acacia) plantations are different from the boundary maps held by companies, the analyses can be wrong — and many companies are arguing precisely this. When the ministers of Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Brunei met on 17 July to find solutions to the recent haze problem, they stressed the need for Indonesia to provide detailed maps of land use and fire-affected areas.”

Using before-and-after-fire images from NASA’s recently launched LANDSAT 8 satellite the data show that about 140,000 ha were burned during the June fire event in one LANDSAT scene (Path/Row:127/059) covering an area of 3.5 million ha (i.e. circa 7.5 percent of Sumatra’s landmass).

The tentative conclusions in the analysis are that:

  • Industrial oil palm and acacia plantations accounted for 21% of the burned area
  • Many industrial plantations exist on LANDSAT imagery where there are no concessions on government maps and vice versa.
  • Only 4% of the burned area was covered in natural forest before the fires
