-In Java the need to manage forests for ship building and railways led to the system of a forest service
-In 1882, 280,000 sleepers were exported from java but all this required labour to cut the trees and prepare the sleepers
-Therefore the Dutch imposed rents on the land being cultivated in the forests and exempted villagers who provided wage free labour and buffaloes
-But later , theses villagers received small wages instead on tax exemptions
-this system was known as blandongstein
