Manual Participatory Forest and Agriculture Land Use Planning, Allocation and Management at Village Level

This manual introduces participatory approaches in implementation P-FALUPAM at
village cluster and village levels, which divide into five steps including office work and
fieldwork. The first step is preparation of work plan, personnel, budget, and equipment/tools.
The second step is collection of village data and mapping of village baseline maps, including
training of P-FALUPAM to district staff, having common understanding of related issues and
establishment of P-FALUPAM responsible committee at village level (the first round of
fieldwork). The third step is mapping current land use, collection of socio-economic data and
assessment of soil fertility (the second round of fieldwork). The fourth step is defining and
allocation of forest and agricultural land, this includes planning and establishment of village
land use regulation {the third round of fieldwork). The fifth step is monitoring and evaluation
of the implementation of forest and agricultural use planning and allocation, which can be
used as reference for development of land registration book, land use certificate and land
title (the fourth round of fieldwork).
