Using interview and field observation methods, to determine the factors that cause primate animal disturbance on community plantation land, analyze initiatives / methods taken by the community to reduce primate disturbance and analyze primate species that disturb the community plantation in Rerebe Village. The research data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study obtained four (4) primate species that often disturb community plantations. Among them are Beruk (Macaca nemestrina), Long-tailed Monkey (Macaca fascicularis), Kedih (Prebytis thomasi) and Kukang (Nycticebus caucang). Primate disturbances occur when community plantations are unoccupied or unattended by farmers. The disturbance from the three primates above almost equally damaged chili, coffee, alpukad, kakoe, banana, jackfruit and durian plants, while the Kukang only damaged coffee and kakoe plants. The method of handling disturbances carried out by the community uses iron traps, rubber tires, zinc matrials, shouting, throwing stones, making fire smoke, and conducting routine guards at the plantation site.
