89 Joshi L ACCELERATING LIVELIHOOD AND ENVIRONMENTAL RECOVERY IN ACEH AND NIAS THROUGH TREE CROPS Laxman JOSHI World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) P O Box 106, Bogor 16001, Indonesia Abstract Aceh remains one of the poorest provinces in Indonesia despite its rich natural resources. The 3-decade long political conflict, economic isolation, lack of technology and weak institutional setups are some of the reasons. The long political dispute between the government and the Free Aceh Movement (or GAM) killed nearly 15,000 people, displaced more than 35,000 households and caused serious damage and deterioration of infrastructure. The 2004 earthquake and tsunami thus occurred in a province that was already experiencing large-scale disaster, damage and poverty. There is much disparity in the poverty of people living in the coastal areas and those living further upland. About 54% of the people live inland and nearly 94% of them rely on agriculture compared to 55% in the coastal areas. On average 76% of total household income is based on agricultural activities and tree crops are the most important providing 60 to 78% of total household income. Rubber, cocoa, areca nuts, coffee, coconut and oil palm are important income generating tree crops. These tree crops are fundamental to the economic prosperity in Aceh and Nias. Many of the environmental problems in the post-disaster context cannot be solved through short-term measures and only through conservation oriented programs. A focus on “trees people want” and tree-based systems and how such forest and agroforest systems can be managed in a sustainable manner is a key to accelerating livelihood recovery and economic and environmental recovery in Aceh and Nias. Key words: natural disaster; conflict; tree crops; environment; economic development International Workshop on Post Tsunami Soil Management, 1-2 July 2008 in Bogor, Indonesia
INTRODUCTION 90 Joshi L Aceh remains one of the poorest provinces in Indonesia despite its rich natural resources. In fact, resource wealth is closely linked to the conflict that has affected Aceh for over three decades that killed nearly 15,000 people and displaced more than 35,000 households. In most rural areas, infrastructure sustained serious damage and further deteriorated due to lack of security and access for development. This has resulted in a struggling economy, often with negative economic growth, low levels of public services delivery and some of the highest poverty levels in Indonesia. High GDP per capita in Aceh, primarily the result of the large gas and oil reserves on Aceh’s east coast, has not yielded lower poverty levels. The 2004 earthquake and tsunami thus occurred in a province that was already experiencing large-scale disaster and damage. Soon after the earthquake and Tsunami of December 2004, unprecedented amounts of aid money from international development agencies and governments were spent in big projects for reconstruction, rehabilitation and economic development. The narrow strips of coastal areas that were directly affected by the Tsunami waves remained the focus for most, if not all, projects. The posttsunami emergency and recovery activities and construction ‘boom’, however, are causing major problems to forest and other natural resources both in coastal and inland areas. Looking from the perspective of tsunami and poverty in Aceh, there are two distinct but overlapping groups of people (World Bank 2008). The ‘shocked’ group includes the people living along the coast and was directly or indirectly affected by the tsunami waves. Their assets, family members, livelihood options were damaged or destroyed. The second group of ‘structurally poor’ consists of inland inhabitants and victims of the long political dispute. Many of the ‘shocked’ retained certain productive capacities, such as their own education, that are in shorter supply among the ‘structurally poor’. Given the better existing infrastructure, diverse income sources, external support and aid concentration, the ‘shocked’ group are able to recover relatively quickly. The ‘structurally poor’ largely remained outside the domain of ‘tsunami aid’ programs. Even prior to the Tsunami, the rural economy in both Aceh and Nias was largely dependent on tree crops such as rubber, cocoa, coconut. While the post-tsunami development support focused mainly on emergency relief and short term recovery, the development of tree crop sector, through promotion of appropriate technology, marketing and other institutional support can accelerate economic growth and help in livelihoods and environmental recovery in Aceh and Nias.
