In South Africa, although implementation of government and forestry industry's embraced forest-based land reform partnership governance models, rural development and community beneficiaries' access to timber or wood products markets independently remain a challenge. This study assessed the perception of community beneficiaries on the sales and leaseback and community managed enterprise forest-based land reform public-private partnership (FBLR PPP) models on the provision of wood product end-use alternative. Two communities (Amabomvini and Cata) were purposefully selected for the study, in which 140 and 175 household beneficiaries were randomly sampled, respectively. Focus group discussions were also conducted with key informants from both communities' registered legal entities. The chi-square results showed a significant (p ≤ 0.001) relationship between the household beneficiaries' responses regarding the recommendation of pulp and paper and fuelwood as preferred wood products end-use alternatives from both communities. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that household beneficiaries who are not educated are significantly less likely to influence wood usage for building material (p ≤ 0.038) and sawn timber (p ≤ 0.033) compared to those who are educated, respectively. Most household beneficiaries in Amabomvini recommended pulp and paper (63.6%), while those from Cata community (84.6%) recommended fuelwood. Additionally, the study shows that the provision of wood product market for the community-managed enterprises would be vital for the sustainability of their forest-based business. Furthermore, prioritizing access roads could assist in construction of new or nested markets for timber products trade and improving their well-being and socioeconomic status. This would ensure that community beneficiaries value the economic role forest, forest products and the significance of strengthening community governance structures in an endeavour to reduce conflicts amongst beneficiaries. Most importantly, government support towards strengthening of community beneficiaries' institutional arrangement or governance of the legal entities is critical to create an enabling environment for the community beneficiaries.

农村发展和木材市场维持中的以森林为基础的土地改革伙伴关系。从两个南非案例中学习

在南非,尽管实施政府和林业采用的以森林为基础的土地改革伙伴关系治理模式,但农村发展和社区受益者独立进入木材或木制品市场仍然是一个挑战。本研究评估了社区受益人对出售和回租以及社区管理企业以森林为基础的土地改革公私合作 (FBLR PPP) 模式提供木材产品最终用途替代品的看法。有目的地选择了两个社区(Amabomvini 和 Cata)进行研究,其中分别随机抽取了 140 和 175 户家庭受益人。还与来自两个社区的注册法律实体的主要知情人进行了焦点小组讨论。卡方结果显示显着(p  ≤ 0.001) 家庭受益人关于推荐纸浆和纸张以及薪柴作为两个社区的首选木制品最终用途替代品的反应之间的关系。二元逻辑回归分析显示,未受过教育的家庭受益人不太可能影响建筑材料(p  ≤ 0.038)和锯材(p ≤ 0.033) 分别与受过教育的人相比。Amabomvini 的大多数家庭受益人推荐纸浆和纸张(63.6%),而 Cata 社区的受益人(84.6%)推荐薪材。此外,该研究表明,为社区管理企业提供木制品市场对于他们以森林为基础的业务的可持续性至关重要。此外,优先考虑通路有助于建设新的或嵌套的木材产品贸易市场,并改善其福祉和社会经济地位。这将确保社区受益人重视森林、林产品的经济作用以及加强社区治理结构以减少受益人之间冲突的重要性。最重要的是,
