| dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted in the east Usambara Mountains in three villages namely Misalai, Shambangeda and Kwatango to assess the policies and institutions governing tree management on outside protected areas. Primary and secondary data were collected using quantitative and qualitative methodologies, i.e. ten percent of households were drawn in each village for household interviews. SPSS and Microsoft excel were used in data analysis and presentation. Farmland tree management outside protected areas is controlled by existing policies and institutions. The decision to plant trees or not and conservation of on farm national trees is guided by village bylaws as well as national policies (Forest Policy, Agriculture Policy, and Environmental Policy). The permit to harvest on farm trees has to be granted by the village council as per existing bylaws. Almost all households have trees on farm, the average number of trees per acre per household is 6, however the difference is the type of species There is a significant relationship between status of land use and ownership systems, dependency on forest resources and the link of farmland trees with biodiversity conservation and livelihood diversification. There are different constraints to tree management such as inconsistencies in agriculture and forest policies, the existence of parallel administration in forest governance between the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism (MNRT) and the Prime Minister's Office, local Government. Moreover constraints are also brought by unreliable market on tree products Further the study provides suggestions for improved coordination on farmland trees management. | en_US |
