5. Reliability of the Barangay-Based Smallholder Tree Farm Inventory: Research and Policy Implications
5. RELIABILITY OF THE BARANGAY-BASED SMALLHOLDER TREE FARM INVENTORY: RESEARCH AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS Edwin Cedamon, Steve Harrison, John Herbohn and Eduardo Mangaoang The reliability of the inventories of smallholder tree farms conducted by barangay chairmen in selected municipalities in Leyte has been evaluated. The average number of trees per farm reported in the barangay-based inventory is 40 while the average verified number of trees is 49. The average stand age reported is 9.25 while the verified stand age is 9.03. No significant difference was found between the barangay-based inventory and verified data in terms of number of trees and stand age. Regression analysis shows that the difference in number of trees reported and the verified number of trees is directly proportional to the aggregate number of trees grown, thus the more trees grown, the higher the difference. The species reported by barangay-chairmen were found to be correct although some of them were reported using local names. The response rate of barangay chairmen in conducting the barangay-based inventory was acceptably high. INTRODUCTION A study to evaluate the reliability of a barangay-based inventory of smallholder tree farms has been conducted as part of the ACIAR Tree Farm Project1. Findings of this study were reported by Cedamon (2007) and Cedamon et al. (2007). The data from this study have been revisited, and the data set for an analysis of the number of trees has been refined. Key issues discussed in this paper are the following: first, ‘how reliable is the -
Good Governance in Public Land Management
Good governance in public land management W. Zimmermann Willi Zimmermann is a land policy adviser The story about public land is a story of power relations, the relationship between state and civil society, and experiences – both good and bad – during periods of nationalization, colonization, restitution or privatization during political transition. There is a clear need for, and interest in, sharing experiences about ongoing work on reforming the public land sector around the world. Many developed countries, post-transition countries and developing countries have embarked on a thorough re-evaluation of the role of government in their societies. There is a trend towards public-sector reform and delegation of decision-making over public land assets to local authorities. General principles for “good” asset management have been established that governments need to adopt in order to strengthen their public property management systems and enhance their efficiency and transparency. Reforming the management of public land must contribute to a basic set of development principles, namely, reduction of severe poverty, achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, progress in good governance and transparent fiscal management of the public sector. Good governance in managing public land first of all means establishing a sound policy regarding how government should intervene in land matters. The most critical element in guiding improvement in this area is the formulation of an explicit public land management policy in line with land policy and fiscal policy that sets out clear objectives related to economic growth, equity and social development, environmental sustainability and transparent fiscal policy. ISSUES political leanings or socio-economic Public land is land owned by the state or status? by local authorities. -
