The effect of conventional and RIL on the environment and carbon stock in theplots was studied using the data of three plots with each size 100 m x 100 m. The plots are placedbased on purposive sampling at landing, main skid trail, and branch skid trails, respectively. Cstocks are counted by allometric equations and C economics by the economic acceptance of REDD.Economic value of RIL was IDR 1,604,518,900,- ha-1.
