Analysis of Traditional Harvests of Wood with Local Communities to Utilize their Indigenous Knowledge in Horticultural Ecosystems

For this purpose, a total of 50 interviews were conducted and the information received was documented by writing commentary points and recording audio and video .Then, data analysis was performed using content analysis methods. According to the results of the research, the traditional charcoal extraction steps include digging a trapezoidal charcoal kiln, cutting wood into trees and arranging them in the kiln, installing a chimney at the inlet and outlet, covering the wood surface with Dried leaves, covering the leaf insulation with soil, lighting the charcoal furnace by fire and closing its opening, turning the wood into charcoal in a certain time, cooling the charcoal furnace and unloading and loading. Due to the lack of a well-codified and up-to-date source of traditional charcoal method in the available sources, the present study is a pioneer in terms of paying attention to this indigenous knowledge and its results, in addition to recording local knowledge of charcoal production, used it in teaching the method of application of wood waste from dried, blown or pruned trees, especially emphasized in garden ecosystems.
