The Dayak peoples of Kalimantan (Borneo) — a collective term for over 200 distinct indigenous ethnic groups — have developed food systems calibrated to the world's oldest tropical rainforest. Dayak food culture is both the most ecologically sophisticated and the most invisible in Indonesian national food discourse: it appears in no restaurant chains, in no airport food courts, in no national food festivals. It is living, practised, and under pressure from deforestation and the palm oil economy that has replaced 30% of Borneo's forest since 1990.
