Abstract
. This study aims to determine the distribution potential of palm trees and the potential for palm sap production in the Palanro KHDTK Area of Hasanuddin University Educational Forest, Rompegading Village, Cenrana District, Maros Regency. This research uses an approach method participative. Based on the research results, it is known that the people of the Palanro area make the greatest utilization of the male flower parts, namely tapping the sap water for the manufacture of palm sugar. The Palanro area has an area of 46.70 ha with 9 plots of tapping areas in it. The distribution pattern of aren palms in the Palanro area is spread at an altitude of 500-600 meters above sea level and grows wild in the cliff area. It found 1,119 palm trees that had not been tapped, 260 trees were temporarily tapped and 6 trees were not tapped. The sap produced is an average of 47.5 liters/day, one palm tree can produce 8.75 liters/tree, with an average number of trees tapped which is 5 trees/day, and produces an average weight of brown sugar of 1.5 kg/shell.
