| Research Abstract |
Survey on livelihoods and agricultural production made at two settlements originally were landless squatters. Results of this survey imply that the cycle the surplus yielded by agricultural sales again invested to agricultural production, has been improved their livelihoods. To prevent repeating forest clearance and abandon of land by these landless peasants, Information which allows them to design the cultivation plan based on future sales and subsistence prediction are expected.
