According to data from the Ministry of Forestry, there are approximately 16.82 million hectares of forest in Papua Island classified as "production forest" in 2024.

Production forest is a forest whose primary function is to produce timber and non-timber forest products.

Generally, production forests are planted with a few types of commercially valuable plants, such as teak trees, acacia trees, rubber trees, and so on.

Based on Government Regulation (PP) Number 10 of 2010, production forests are divided into 3 types, namely:

Permanent Production Forest: Forest that can be entirely used for production.
Limited Production Forest: Forest that can be used for production in a limited capacity due to factors such as soil type, steep topography, and so on.
Convertible Production Forest: Forest that can be used for production and can be reserved for development outside the forestry sector.

As of 2024, the area of convertible production forest in Papua Island reaches millions of hectares.

Referring to PP Number 23 of 2021, this convertible production forest can be used for national strategic projects, land acquisition for agrarian reform, and land acquisition for agricultural and plantation projects for food and energy security.

Below are the details of the production forest area in Papua Island by type in 2024:
