A number of different actors have interests in the management of natural forest resources in Madagascar. Our study sheds light on the temporal and spatial dynamism of the forest canopy along a sloping basin in the Beforona region by analysing the interests of the different parties. On the one hand, the aim of the farmers is to assure their survival by adopting simple crop rotation techniques in order to deplete forest resources as little as possible. On the other hand, the aims of the different actors are complementary in that they have a common interest: to reduce to a minimum the loss of natural forest and to improve the farmers' quality of life. Actors work within their own sectors according to their own capabilities without giving too much regard to the activities of others. Co-ordination of activities and a coherent exploitation is therefore lacking, and this leads to an extension of felling activity.
