Forests not only provide the advantage of conservation for the environment, but also forests can provide economic benefits to local communities. Not only wood, fruits, honey or the other forest products that can be utilized. However, forests can also be utilized in terms of its environmental services, namely as a carbon sink, hydrological function, as well as in terms of natural beauty (ecotourism).

Hutan tidak hanya memberikan manfaatkan konservasi bagi lingkungan, namun hutan juga bisa memberikan manfaat ekonomi bagi masyarakat lokal. Tidak hanya kayu, buah-buahan, madu ataupun hasil hutan lainnya yang dapat dimanfaatkan. Namun, hutan juga dapat dimanfaatkan dari sisi jasa lingkungannya, yakni sebagai penyimpan karbon, fungsi hidrologi, serta dalam hal keindahan alamnya (ekowisata). Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Hutan Nagari Sungai Buluh, Kabupaten Padang Pariaman, Provinsi Sumatera Barat dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui dampak ekonomi dan sosial bagi masyarakat. Metode yang digunakan adalah kombinasi dari pendekatan kuantitatif dan kualitatif dengan menggunakan kuisioner dan wawancara mendalam. Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah dilakukan, terlihat bahwa pemanfaatan jasa lingkungan hutan menjadi ekowisata memberikan kontribusi ekonomi bagi masyarakat yang tinggal di sekitar hutan yaitu sebesar 30.70% untuk rumahtangga masyarakat lapisan atas, rumahtangga masyarakat lapisan menengah memperoleh manfaat sebesar 50.20% dan untuk rumahtangga masyarakat lapisan bawah hanya memperoleh manfaat sebesar 19.10%. Masyarakat tidak lagi melakukan perambahan hutan, walaupun demikian masyarakat tetap bisa memperoleh manfaat dari hutan tersebut yaitu dari pengembangan ekowisata.
