Abstract
Community Forestry is a government policy that aims to reduce the rate of deforestation by involving local communities through optimal, fair, and sustainable use of forest resources while maintaining the preservation of forest and environmental functions. The diversity of plant species is one indicator of the preservation of forest and environmental functions. This study aims to determine the types of plants and cropping patterns carried out related to the characteristics of group members after obtaining Community Forest Utilization Permits. The study was conducted in December 2018. Data collection was carried out by structured interviews with members of the Sinar Harapan farmer group and direct observation in the field. Data is tabulated and analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the planting pattern used in Sinar Harapan group was a simple agroforestry pattern consisting of 8 types of intolerant plants namely avocado (Persea americana), petai (Parkia speciosa), areca nut (catechu area), durian (Durio zibethinus), jengkol (Archidendrom pauciflorum), bananas (Musaceae), candlenuts (Aleurites moluccanus), mahogany (Swietenia mahagoni) and 7 types of tolerant plants consisting of lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), cloves (Syzygium aromaticum), jaling (Archidendron bubalinum), chili (Capsicum frutescens) ), pepper (Piper Nigrum), nutmeg (Myristica fragrans), and coffee (Coffea). The diversity of plant species is influenced by farmer characteristics such as age, type of work, activity in the organization, land area, and the number of working days of farmers.

Summary
Berdasarkan hasil penelitian umur petani didominasi oleh umur produktif kerja yaitu 18-65 tahun. Petani pada umur produktif kerja memungkin untuk melakukan pengelolaan lebih baik dibandingkan petani dengan umur tidak produktif kerja. Hal ini karena semakin muda seseorang maka akan semakin tinggi curahan tenaga kerja dan tingkat kreatifitasnya. Sejalan dengan pendapat Winarni (2016) yang menyatakan bahwa petani dengan umur produktif akan semakin tinggi kemampuan yang dimiliki. Data kelompok umur dan karakteristik lainnya dari anggota Gapoktan Sinar Harapan disajikan pada Tabel 1
