| dc.description | The Covid-19 pandemic has had an impact on livelihoods, food chain values, income, basic needs and global community health. There is relationship between human and forests, especially the farmers livelihoods who depend on forest resources. This study presents the characteristics of forest farmers and the changes that occur in forest management, harvesting, marketing, institutions and sources of livelihood during the Covid-19 pandemic. Data and information obtained through observation, interviews and secondary data, analyzed descriptively- qualitatively to understand the dynamics of change in forest farmer groups who manage state forest areas and community forests. The results of the research show that the majority of forest farmers have relatively long farming experience, but are not supported by adequate levels of education and expertise. This situation has implications for the ability to adapt and innovate in forest use, so that the performance of forest management, harvesting, marketing, institutions and farmers' livelihoods decreases during the pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic brought significant changes on farmers groups, especially the effectiveness of their institutions, pressure on livelihoods, and a number of variables that experienced a decrease in their rffectiveness. The biggest changes for farmers in state forest areas are caused by the limited choice of utilization and development of plant commodities in accordance with government regulations. Limited options lead to limited sources of livelihood, so that it can have implications for the farmers' welfare where the poverty level of state forest farmers was higher than that of community forest farmers. It requires the regulatory reformulation and the initiation of adaptation strategies through social engineering to overcome the need for strategies and interventions to strengthen farmer institutions, so that forest farmers are more resilient in facing changes during and after Covid-19.
