According to Madani Berkelanjutan study, in 2024, deforestation of natural forests in Indonesia reached 206,000 hectares (ha).

The largest deforestation was recorded on the islands of Kalimantan and Sumatra.

"Approximately 40% of deforestation occurred on the island of Kalimantan, with the largest area in East Kalimantan," said Madani in its report, Deforestation in the Transition Regime of Natural Forest Loss in 2024.

Madani found that deforestation in 2024 also occurred in areas with important ecosystems, such as peat ecosystems, conservation areas, and forest moratorium areas.

"This fact shows that the moratorium instrument, which should be a bulwark of forest protection, has not been effective in providing comprehensive protection," they said.

Here is a list of the 10 provinces with the largest gross deforestation of natural forests in 2024, according to Madani Berkelanjutan:

1. East Kalimantan: 36,159 ha

2. Riau: 28,763 ha

3. West Kalimantan: 21,383 ha

4. Central Kalimantan: 19,682 ha

5. Aceh: 11,088 ha

6. North Kalimantan: 8,559 ha

7. Southeast Sulawesi: 7,874 ha

8. North Sumatra: 6,879 ha

9. Jambi: 6,820 ha

10. West Sumatra: 6,724 ha
