- Abstract
Forest destruction of Merapi’s slope was caused by fire of volcanic eruption and excessive deforestation. This research intends to identify the community activities in an effort to minimize deforestation, especially the community participation towards the forest conservation through the coffee agroforestry and the influence of community participation on the coffee agroforestry program in Tlogolele Village, Selo District. Sample of this study is Stabelan hamlet and Tlogomulyo hamlet society to amount 175 KK. Proportional Sampling was used in this study. Data collection methods in this study are Questionnaire method, observation, interviews and documentation. Data analysis techniques used were descriptive statistics and simple linear regression. Tlogolele people have not made efforts to preserve the forests of the Merapi area before the existence of the Agroforestry program. The level of community participation in each partitioning stage is low with a score of 18.8. Low community participation is caused by a long coffee harvest period, that is up to two years, so the harvest cannot be directly useful. The results of a simple linear regression analysis Y = 9.040 + 0.791 X indicate a positive relationship, meaning that the higher the community participation, the higher the success of the coffee agroforestry program. Tlogolele Village community participation is low. The number of coffee plant seeds that have not been moved into the forest is a benchmark for the lack of success of the coffee agroforestry program. This was influenced by the low participation of the Tlogomulyo Hamlet community who was not active during the program implementation.
