%X A wide range of policy instruments have been devised and applied to support the goals of sustainable forestry management. Community forestry programs can contain elements of several of these instruments. Th is paper considers the design of community forestry contracts in Indonesia. In the re search site, community forestry contracts are contracts between the Forestry Department and community groups that provide group members with time-bound leasehold rights to protection forests, pr ovided that farmers abide by specified land-use rest rictions and pay any required fees. Farmers perceive that the contracts represent a bundle of restric tions and instruments, some of which are explicitly stated in the contract and others that are implied by the contract. Conjoint analysis was used to quantify farmers’ tradeoffs among the explicit and implicit attributes of the contracts. The results of bivariate and ordered logit models show that farmers are most concerned about the leng th of the contract, and surprisingly unconcerned about requirements on tree dens ity and species composition. An implicit attribute, greater access to forestry and agrofo restry extension, emerged as an important implicit attribute. The results imply that farmers in this part of Indonesia would be willing to abide by fairly strict limitations on land use, provided that they can be assured of long-term rights to the planted trees.
