Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Major extractive projects began in Batang Toru in 2012. • Forest loss doubled after 2012, exceeding the counterfactual trend. • Projects added impacts, but agriculture and logging drove ~70% of forest loss. • Ethnographic evidence confirms agriculture and logging drive forest loss. • Conservation needs land tenure clarity, livelihood incentives, and logging control.
