Abstract

This study aims to determine the types of forest resources utilized by Padusan villagers and its level of dependency on forest resources in the area. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis.The results show that the utilization of the “Surya” Forest Park area by the society was classified into 2, namely Padusan Tourism and Non-Tourism. The rest of the main livelihoods of Padusan villagers rely on nature as their source of livelihood as farmers with ultimate commodities of rice, sweet potatoes, and shallots. Along with the advancement of technology and the increasing quality of Padusan villagers, in its development, there has been a shift in the livelihoods of the population from agriculture to the service sector. The Society of Padusan Village fulfills their needs of food, clothing, and dwelling place by self-cultivation, buying and utilizing forest products. The dependency level of these societies on forest resources is higher in the tourist area compared to the utilization of non-tourism forest areas.
