5.4 Curbing the Rate of Deforestation
Indonesia's FOLU Net Sink 2030 will be
reached once emission levels from the forestry and
other land use sector has been properly managed.
Curbing the rate of deforestation makes up a
way to reduce the emission level. Data from the
National Forest Monitoring System (SIMONTANA)
show that Indonesia's deforestation rate has
continued to decline during President Joko
Widodo's administration.
During 2019-2020, the Country made good
performance in curbing the rate of deforestation
to the lowest point in history. It was 115.46
thousand ha, down by 75.03 percent against the
2018-2019 deforestation rate which reached
462.46 thousand ha.
The corrective actions that have been taken by
Minister of Environment and Forestry Siti Nurbaya
since 2014 have undeniably had an impact on the
performance.
One landmark corrective action is permanent
moratorium on new forest concessions in primary
forests and peatlands. The policy was previously
to postpone new forest concession, and then it
was upgraded to permanent moratorium through
the Presidential Instruction No. 5 of 2019 on
Termination of the Issuance of New Licenses and
Governance Improvement of Primary Forests and
Peatlands.
Siti Nurbaya signs a forest cover map as a result of the National Forest
Monitoring System (SIMONTANA) at the Auditorium Dr. Soedjarwo, Manggala
Wanabakti. Referring to SIMONTANA, national deforestation continues to
decrease as a result of various government policies including moratorium on
primary forests and peatland permits; moratorium on new oil palm plantation
permits; and the gazettement of forest area.

5.5 Building Sustainable Peatland Ecosystems
Another corrective action that has been
carried out since 2014 by Minister of Environment
and Forestry Siti Nurbaya is sustainable peatland
management.
Since peatlands are the world's largest natural
carbon store on land and a vital nature-based
solution to climate change, Minister Siti Nurbaya
place them as one of main pillars in Indonesia's
FOLU Net Sink 2030.
Drained and extracted peatlands for farming or
forestry has increased the risk of carbon emissions;
on the other hand, well managed peatlands will
expand vegetation cover and increase carbon
LIFAD
sequestration, which in turn will affect the nation's
economy and welfare.
Consistent enforcement of the Government
Regulation (PP) No. 71 of 2014 amended by PP
No. 57 of 2016, on the Protection and Management
of Peat Ecosystems or so-called PP Gambut,
followed up by the issuance of its implementing
regulations are critical to sustainable peatland
management.
The regulations provide guidance for the
sustainable use of peatlands. Peat domes within
peatland ecosystems has to be protected, or if it has
been damaged it has to be restored, particularly its
vital role in regulating water balance. Production
activities are still allowable within the cultivation

areas with water levels lower than 0.4 meters
from the ground surface.
As a result, as of September 2021
approximately 3.6 million ha of peatlands within
concession areas and 45,950 ha within community
lands had been successfully restored.
The measures of peatland restoration are
getting stronger with close collaboration between
the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK)
and the Peatland and Mangrove Restoration
Agency (BRGM).
Indonesia shares experiences and lessons learned on
peatlands restoration to the representatives of 14 countries
and various international institutions at the International
Workshop on Protection and Management of Peatland
Ecosystem. Indonesia becomes global center of attention
for the success in those carbon rich land protection and
management during the last few years.
