AGUSAN DEL NORTE FOREST LAND USE AND MANAGEMENT PLAN
2004 – 2014
As of Oct. 2004, forest protection area for the province is estimated to be only 69,576.06 has. This is a little over 61% of the total protection forestland and only 16% of the total watershed area of the province. Agusan del Norte Economy: • GDP (2000) at current prices PhP 5.2 B
• This is 5.5% lower than the GDP of the Province in 1990, but higher than
the 1997 GDP by 8.82% • The contribution of AFF to GDP in 2000 was 40.3%. Forestry accounted
for 0.87% of the total AFF contribution to GDP Planning Principles • Environmental and ecological sustainability
• Economic efficiency
• Accountability and transparency • Participation of key stakeholders
• Consultation and validation process
• Sustainable utilization of forestland resources • Institutional strengthening
• Monitoring and evaluation
VISION A productive and sustainable forest providing livelihood and recreational space and contributing to ecological balance of the Province, managed harmoniously by different ethnic groups. MISSION STATEMENT To enhance, conserve, safeguard and optimize the productivity of the forestland resources of the province for the interest and welfare of the present and future generation. OBJECTIVES 1. To re-establish watershed reservations and enhance the protection of the 14
watershed clusters of the province 2. To increase the forest cover of the province, particularly the closed canopy
forest through an intensified reforestation and protection program 3. To reduce the open access forest area to 5% of the total forest area within
the planning period 4. To increase the watershed reservation of the province to a level which can
adequately meet the water sustainability requirement of the province 5. To increase the mangrove areas through replanting and conservation
program 6. To establish and operationalize preventive measures to control soil erosion in
the province 7. To provide livelihood programs and support facilities to settlement areas
within the forestland 8. To develop and promote eco-tourism in the province 9. To establish strong partnership with different stakeholders on forestland
development
STRATEGIES AND TARGETS Two types of strategies are used in ADN FLUMP: Spatial strategy
Programmatic strategy
SPATIAL STRATEGY
The spatial strategy of ADN is to combine first the various watersheds of the province into 14 watershed clusters and then to divide each watershed cluster into 7 management zones. The management zones integrate the protection, conservation, best use and management of forestlands of the province. The seven management zones are: 1. Strict protection and habitat zone 2. Restoration zone 3. Single use production zone 4. Multiple use production zone 5. Recreational use zone 6. Special use zone 7. Buffer zone Strict Protection and Habitat Zone: Areas within the protection forestlands that consist of old growth or closed canopy forest, highly erosion prone areas, areas over fault lines, identified habitats of threatened species, and high recharge areas of known aquifers

Single Use Production Zone: Consist of areas within the production forestlands that are for timber or non-timber production.
Multiple Use Production Zone: Consist of areas within production forestlands that are without forest cover but not designated as single use production zone.
