Abstract

This paper focuses on the factors affecting countermeasures against monkey crop raiding that have been implemented voluntarily by residents. Two factors affect these countermeasures: the interaction between village residents and experts, and the funding of participatory methods through which villagers could implement these countermeasures. Some village residents had devised innovative counter measures drawing upon experiences of crop raids by animals in the past. However, currently, there is no system to facilitate the dissemination of successful countermeasures against crop raiding by animals. We argue that establishing such a system would help the development and spread of effective countermeasures. Accordingly, we offer a number of policy recommendations. Firstly, an effective network enabling knowledge sharing about countermeasure techniques should be established. Secondly, a person should be employed locally to facilitate and enhance village-based crop raiding countermeasure plans and activities.
