As a result of the encroachment into the swamp and intensified land use the watershed the Banten Governor established integrated management as a priority in the watershed. TKI, the company that pipes water for industrial and domestic use, is helping fund conservation activities and compensate community efforts to maintain good forest cover on a pilot site. In the contract between farmer groups and KTI, the state-owned water company, farmers agree to maintain at least 500 fruit and timber trees per hectare. For every 500 trees maintained during the contract, farmers receive USD 120 per year. A more formal environmental science management body will likely be formed to to administer the growing program - additional farmers groups have expressed willingness to join and other government and private companies have indicated a willingness to pay for similar environmental services.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightSedimentationSurface waterSoil erosionBest management practicesPayments for environmental servicesTropical zonesForest ecosystemsForestryWatershed managementSupplyWatershed rehabilitationBest management practice contractRawa danau nature conservation reserveTransaction mechanismWatershedAbstract
