need to collaborate with adjacent businesses, local communities, and even local
governments.
These are the principles of the Eco-management in a Large-scale Ecosystem of
Tropical Peatland proposed in this chapter. This approach will lead to global climate
change mitigation measures in the tropics and to a Carbon-Negative society at the
regional level, resulting in the coexistence of people and nature.
Theoretical tropical peatland management has been discussed and proposed in
various ways but has never been realized. There have been some trials in certain
parts of Indonesia, but none have been carried out on a large-scale ecosystem. A
major obstacle to this is the lack of detailed topographic maps. A practice of Stockbased WM on a large scale is described in Chaps. 3 and 4.
Acknowledgements The ideas for eco-management of tropical peatland were mainly obtained
from a SATRREPS (Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development)
project entitled “Wild fire and carbon management in peat forest in Indonesia”, founded by JST
(Japan Science and Technology Agency) and JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency), the
IJ-REDD project founded by JICA, and a JICA-JPS-BRG Program from the Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA, Japan), the Japan Peatland Society (JPS, Japan) and the Peatland
Restoration Agency (BRG, Indonesia). This chapter also depended on the results obtained from
FOERDIA-PT. WSL/PT. MTI Pilot Project, PT. WSL/PT. MTI-JPS Collaboration Program,
