INTRODUCTION The State of Jammu and Kashmir is bestowed with lofty snow crested mountains, fascinating valleys, sparkling streams, rushing rivers and emerald forests. The state is blessed with diverse ecosystem. In the south lies the Jammu region the lower portion of which is essentially hot in summer and cold in winters, bearing broadleaved forests at lower altitudes in plains and shiwaliks. The middle part of Jammu region support mostly chir pine forests where-as the higher reaches are temperate and support luxuriant coniferous forests. The northwest region between Pir Panjal and Zojilla is the Kashmir valley considered “paradise on earth”. This fascinating valley enticing the visitors is a museum of nature and scenic beauty. To the northeast lies the great landscape of Ladakh bound by snow peaks and friendly people. It is a place of innumerable attractions. The State of Jammu and Kashmir is having the unending varieties of its landscape, the magic of natural scenery, the vivid cultural life, the unmatched glaciers, rushing torrent, sparkling springs, the cool shade of the chinars, wealth of its famous health resorts and the last but not the least, its traditional hospitality which attract any tourist.

The J&K State lies to the North-west of the country looking like a crown on the map of India. It is a border state in the extreme North of the Indian Union. Nature has been generous enough to bestow this state with rich forests and tremendous water resources.Its natural vegetation has great diversity, ranging from the lush evergreen conifers on the gentle slopes at high altitudes to decideuous forests on the southern slopes of the Shiwaliks. The state of J&K comprising the divisions of Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir has an area of 2.22 lakh Sq.kms including those parts which are under the occupation of Pakistan and china. Out of present area in hand, J & K State has 20230 Sq.Kms under forests, which account for 19.95% of the geographical area of State including Ladakh region and 47.80% excluding Ladakh. As per SFR 2005 and SFR 2007 the forests constitute 54% of the area reported for land utilization in J&K as 59% of its geographical area is unable to support tree growth being under permanent snow cover, glaciers and cold desert.

The forest cover in the state, based on interpretation of satelite data of Oct 2006 - Jan 07, is

22686Sq. Kms, which is 10.21% of the States Geographical area. In terms of Forest Canopy density classes, the state has 4298 Sq. Kms very dence forest, 8977 Sq. Kms moderately dense forest and 9411 Sq. Kms open forest. . Forests play a major role in maintaining the ecological balance, retaining soil & water and providing areas for the preservation of wild-life. As is rightly said “ Food is subservient to Forests”. Our agriculture sector can promise development only when the forest cover is increased and preserved. Forests provide raw material to a number of industries in our state. This sector provides promising employment opportunities in the State. Forest sector has been one of the important sources of revenue earnings for the State exchequer. Rightly, now it is more conserved than exploited, so to be preserved for the future. An investment in the forest is an investment for a secure future. So economically conservation sounds the best investment.

Forests are the open treasures, rich heritage of the state and constitute the most important sector of the economy. They have truly been described as,”Green Gold”. Forests are not only of paramount importance to the state because of being a source of revenue but they also maintain clean environment. Forests provide employment opportunities to millions of people in the state. They also provide a bracing climate for our healthy life. In addition to ensuring good agricultural produce, Forests offer considerable potential for industrial development of the state. Forests help in precipitation in the form of adequate snowfall and keep rivers flowing perennially

by conserving water. They provide timber for construction purposes and raw material for sustaining the Joinery Mills, Resin & Turpentine industries etc. It provides grazing facilities for our livestock and yields valuable herbs and medicinal plants.

Besides, forests predominantly covered by trees or other woody or non woody vegetation, occupy an extensive area of land. This land under Forest cover needs protection against excessive and unregulated diversion for non forestry use. In its natural state, a forest remains in a relatively fixed, self regulated condition over a long period of time. Climate, soil and the topography of the region determine the characteristic trees of a forest. In local environments, dominant species of trees are characteristically associated with certain shrubs and herbs. The type of vegetation on the forest floor is influenced by the large and taller plants, but because low vegetation affects the organic composition of the soil, the influence is reciprocal. Disturbances such as a forest fire or tree cutting by the timber industry may result in a shift to another forest type. Left undisturbed, ecological succession will eventually result in a climax forest community. Human intervention, in the form of forest conservation and management, is practiced to maintain the desirable forest types. The forests provide food and water security, prevent flood and draught, promote Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry and Tourism and generate employment. Under present scenario of climate change, the ill effects of which are increasingly becoming visible, the conservation, preservation and development of forests and plantations is realized world over. For safeguarding environment, we cannot afford to disturb the fragile ecosystem akin to a place. The Jammu & Kashmir Forest Department in its endeavour has been doing its best to fulfill its responsibilities and social obligations. The protection, development and preservation of forests for generations to come is aimed at, for which notable efforts have been made by the Department during the period covered under this report i.e. the year 2010-11.

CHAPTER - I

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

GEOMORPHIC FEATURES

Morphologically, the state is divisible into three distinct regions, i.e. Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh. Each of the three regions has distinct physiographic features.

PHYSIOGRAPHY The state of Jammu and Kashmir being

mountainous is characterized by great diversity in relief. Hemmed in snow kissed peaks of the Himalayas and the scorching plains of Punjab the State contains a mosaic of ecologies, the macro regions of Jammu plains, the shiwallik hills, the thickly forested middle Himalayas, the lush green and verdant Kashmir Valley and the lofty mountain peaks of Himalayas in Ladakh. The mountain ranges are pierced by valleys.

On the basis of physiographic conditions and climate, the present Jammu and Kashmir State has been divided into five natural regions or macro regions like Outer Plains, Outer Hills, Middle Mountains (Pir Panjal), valley of Kashmir

and Greater Himalayas of Ladakh region. These major macro regions can further be divided into 19 meso regions and 68 micro regions in different Geo- ecological conditions of Jammu and Kashmir territories. .

LOCATION

The State of Jammu and Kashmir is strategically located in the North West corner of India. It shares its borders with China in the East, Pakistan in the West, Afghanistan and Russia in the North and plains of Punjab and Himachal in the South and South East. POSITION

The state of Jammu and Kashmir stretches between 320 – 17’N to 370 – 05’ North latitude and 720 – 31’E to 80 0 – 20’ East longitude. From North to South, it extends over 640 Kms in length and from East to West over 480 Kms in breadth.

AREA

The total area of Jammu and Kashmir state is 2,22,236 Sq.Kms. But the area under actual control is 101387 Sq.kms only, as a great chunck of the territory is under illegal occupation of Pakistan and China.

Distribution of Geographical area i. Total Geographical Area. = 2,22,236 Sq.Kms

II. Area under illegal occupation of Pakistan = 78,114 Sq.Kms III. Area illegally handed over to China by Pakistan = 5,180 Sq.Kms IV. Area under illegal occupation of China = 37,555 Sq. Kms V. Total Area under illegal occupation of China And Pakistan = 1,20,849 Sq.Kms

VI. Actual area under the control of the State= 1,01,387 Sq.Kms Grand Total (V + VI) = 2,22,236 Sq.Kms

DRAINAGE The Sate of Jammu and Kashmir is drained by the mighty Indus and its tributaries like Kishan-Ganga, Jehlum, Chenab and Ravi and their tributaries. Out of these, the Indus and the Chenab rivers have their origins to the north of the Greater Himalayas and they pierce through the main ranges of the Himalayas CLIMATE

The regions of the State Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh have distinct agroclimatic characteristics and cultural identity. Jammu region has two different climatic zones depending primarily on altitude. Lower hills and plain bear subtropical cliamate with hot dry summer lasting from April to July. The summer monsoons coming around middle of July and fading away in early September. This is followed by dry spell from September to November. Winter is mild and temperature seldom touches freezing point. In the higher reaches of Chenab valley, the climate is moist temperate, winters are severe and varied quantity of snow is received. The Kashmir valley with Pir Panchal mountains on its South and Korakaram on its North receives precipitation in the form of snow due to western disturbances. The winter is severly cold and temperature goes often below 0 o C. Spring is pleasantly cold. Summers are warm and dry and autumn is again cool and sometimes wet. Ladakh is situated on the Eastern mountain range of Kashmir. This is one of the highest ranges in the world. It is a cold desert receiving very little precipitation. The temperature remains below the freezing point during winter due to its high altitude when people often remain indoors. Drass in Ladakh region is the coldest place of the State. It has recorded a temperature of -50oC during the winter. During the short period of Summer season, the scorching heat of the sun often causes sunburns. The main flora of Ladakh is that of desert type which covers the upper slopes and its valleyes. There are no natural forests, but plantations have been carried out mainly by the two divisions of Forest Department which need irrigation during hot summer. The area is quite rich in valuable medicinal plants.

CLIMATIC ZONES

The Five broad climatic zones in the state are differentiated as I) Sub-tropical, II) temperate, III) Dry temperate, IV) Cold arid and V) Intermediate zone.

I, Sub-tropical Zone

The mean height above the sea level ranges from 300 meters to nearly 1350 meters. These areas constitute the parts of Jammu, Kathua, Udhampur, Poonch and Rajouri Districts. Monsoon is the source of precipitation; Hot summers and relatively dry but pronounced winters are experienced.

II, Valley Temperate Zone

The mean height above sea level ranges from 1560 meters to about 4200 meters. The zone essentially covers the Kashmir Valley and inner Himalayan Valley. Precipitation in the form of snow and frost during winter is definite. Wet and cold winters, relatively dry and moderately hot summers are its main features.

III, Dry Temperate Zone

Altitude ranges between 1350 meters to more than 3000 meters above msl. It includes all the areas above the outer hills and include parts of the districts of Poonch, Rajouri and Doda. Monsoons being the source of precipitation relatively wet and cool climate is experienced.

IV, Cold Arid Zone

Includes high altitude areas of inner Himalayas which experience severe cold, dry winters and moderately hot and dry summers. The zone covers the districts of Ladakh and Kargil in the East and Gilgit and Adjacent areas in the North West. The altitude ranges from 2900 meters to peaks ranging from 7200 meters to more than 8400 meters above msl.

V, Intermediate Zone

Broadly covers mid and high altitude areas of Doda, Poonch, Rajouri and Udhampur. From October to June, the rainfall pattern resembles that of the Temperate Zone. The summer rainfall, however, resembles the precipitation pattern of sub-tropical zone.

The meteorological information of the area is given in the Appendix No: XLVII.

FOREST ADMINISTRATION

In order to manage the forests, Forest Department of J&K was created in the year

1883-84 A. D. This was the beginning of the scientific forestry in the State. The preliminary

regulation to control forest working “AIN-E-JUNGLAT” was introduced by Mr J. C. Mc Donnel, who

was appointed as the first Conservator of Forests of J&K. Since then many administrative reforms

and changes have taken place to protect and manage the Forest resources.

In order to gear up the working of the Department and to implement various

developmental schemes and projects, besides, meeting the social obligations, the Forest

Department was re-organized in the year 1990. Under this re-organization two posts of Chief

Conservator of Forests, one each for Jammu and Kashmir Regions were created with one

Principal Chief Conservator of Forests to head the Department at the State level. For smooth

conduct of business each Chief Conservator of Forests was made the provincial head of the

Forests. The Forest area is divided into Circles and sub divided into Divisions, Ranges, Blocks and

Beats. The right of ownership of all forests is vested with the Government under the administrative

control of Principal Chief Conservator of Forests of J&K State. During the financial year 2010 -

2011 upto October 2010 Sh. Jagdish Kishwan, IFS and thereafter Sh. R.D. Tiwari, IFS, headed

the Forest Department as Principal Chief Conservator of Forests.

ORGANISATIONAL SET UP

Forest Department is divided into various circles and divisions for administrative purpose and also for efficient management of forests. Since 1947, Forest Department has undergone various administrative changes. Presently the organizational setup of the territorial Forest Department is indicated as under:-

CHAPTER - III

FOREST RESOURCES

The State of Jammu and Kashmir is covered by lofty mountains, which receive heavy rainfall and snow. Dense forests are found everywhere particularly in outer and inner Himalayan ranges. High mountains of Ladakh and Kargil receive very little rainfall; therefore, these are devoid of forest cover. However vast grass lands and abundant medicinal and aromatic plants grow there.

Forests may be called a creation and an incarnation of nature, each one of its life system living in harmony with natural environment in a give and take spirit, maintaining the nature’s ecological balance and the life system as a whole. In forests, one finds colourful plant and animal life, water resources in the form of nallas, rivers, lakes, glaciers and even snow clad mountains, the soil and other mineral deposits. In technical terms, forest means a vast track of land set aside for production of timber and other forest resources and also for multiform of indirect benefits. FOREST AREA

The total forest area of the Jammu and Kashmir state as per working plans is 20,230 sq. kms. with region wise distribution given as under:-

IMPORTANCE OF FORESTS Forests are the open treasures and a rich heritage of the State. Besides, providing large

quantities of Timber, Fuel-wood and Fodder, these are the basic sources for procurement of minor

forest reserves, mineral products and useful in preservation of animal life. Forests play a vital role

in maintaining the perennial water system, oxygen flow, conserving and protecting soil resources,

enhancing the beauty of landscape and assuring a salubrious climate. Forests constitute the most

important sector of the economy. Forests are not only of paramount importance to the State

because of being a source of revenue but also maintain ecological balance and provide a bracing

climate for our health. The health resorts of our State like Gulmarg, Pahalgam, Ahrabal, Patnitop,

Batote, Kud, Achhabal, Kokernag, Daksum, Verinag are situated amidst these forests and thereby

add beauty to these health resorts, which attracts tourists from all over the world.

The forests yield a variety of minor products such as Kuth, Baledona, Dioscoria,

Hyoscyamus, Podophyllum, Digitalis, Artemisia etc. These products have medicinal value and are

supplied to pharmaceutical industries. In addition to it, forest also acts as a habitat of some wildlife

species amongst which Hangul, Brownbear, Markkhor, Snowleopard etc.are certain examples

found in the state.

14


FOREST TYPES

The main forest types found in Jammu and Kashmir State are

I. Sub-Tropical Dry Deciduous Forests: These forests are generally found in the lower

reaches of Shiwaliks in Jammu region. The common tree species are Acacia catachu,

Dalbergia sissoo, Acacia modesta, Albizzia spp, Salmalia malabarica, Eucalyptus Spp,

Dendrocalamus strictus.

II. Sub-Tropical Pine Forests: These forests are situated in upper Shiwalik and outer

Himalayas. The common species found here are Pinus roxburghii, Albizzia spp, Dalbergia

sissoo, Olea cuspidata and other broad leaved associates.

III. Himalayan Moist Temperate Forests: This type is found in Chenab Valley. The common

tree species are Cedrus deodara, Pinus wallichiana, Picea smithiana, Pinus gerardiana,

Abies pindrow (low level), Juglans regia, Acer spp, Populus ciliata, Prunus padus, Aesculus

indica, Fraxinus floribunda, Quercus spp. etc.

IV. Himalayan Dry Temperate Forests: This type include the main forests of Kashmir Valley

with the common tree species as Cedrus deodara, Pinus wallichiana, Picea smithiana,

Abies pindrow, Juglans regia, Acer spp., Prunus spp., Aesculus indica, and the typical

under wood of Parrotia jacquamentiana etc.

V. Alpine Forests: These forests are situated above the main temperate zone. Common spp.

found in this zone are High level Fir and Kail, Junipers, Quercus spp, Populus ciliata, Betula

spp, Salix spp. Rhododendron, and a variety of wild flowers and grasses.

The luxuriant belts of Deodar forests are found in the Valleys of Kishenganga, the

famous valley of Lolab and the Chenab Valley. Continuous belts of Fir and Spruce are

found in Pir Panjal mountain range and the Chir forests are confined to Poonch, Rajouri,

Nowshera, Billawar, Udhampur, Reasi and Ramban Forest Divisions with some streaks in

J. V. Division. Kail is also found in pure or mixed with Deodar and Fir forests. The broad-

leaved associates of these timber trees are generally found in moist depressions or nallas.

VI. Forests in cold arid zone: Leh and Kargil Districts fall in this zone where natural forests are

meagre. Juniperous spp. exisists sporadically. Plantations of poplar and salix developed by

the Forest Department over a period of time need irrigation. Robinia has been introduced in

the rescent past. The natural shrubs include Hypophea and Myrcaria. Among herbs

Artimisia is abundantly found, besides other species of medicinal importance.

15


Forest resources are indispensable for the human beings and have played the

most significant role in the economy of the state. These resources have extensive use in

our daily life and in industrial processes.

FOREST BASED INDUSTRIES

Eco Tourism: - Tourism, one of the major industries, is dependent on forests. From the

times immemorial, Jammu and Kashmir State has been visited by a large number of tourists from

far off countries. Some of them come in search of knowledge while others come for adventure and

recreation. Each of them has paid tributes to the natural scenery of Kashmir. It is a place of

innumerable well-known attractions. The Valley has numerous well-organized and beautiful

ancient camping sites mostly situated in very delightful and attractive locations. It also attracts

large number of mountaineers and ‘Skiers’ during winter. Kashmir leaves no one unaffected by its

supreme beauty, charming peace and heavenly environment.

The state has immense potential for development of tourism as a massive industry. It has

won considerable recognition as an agency for economic and social benefits and also promoting

national integration, creation of employment opportunities and augmentation of foreign exchange

earning. The industry has also great impact on the socio-economic activity of our state.

Unfortunately during the turmoil period in the state, this industry was adversely affected. Howover

due to the peaceful environment and efforts of the Government, organizers and managers the

tourism sector attained a boom. During the year 2010-2011 it is estimated that not less than 8.12

lakh tourists visited the state. The bold steps taken by the Government for the speedy

development contributed a lot to the state economy. Details of visitors for the year is given in

Appendix No: XLVI

A destination at Dera Ki Gali was selected under Eco-Tourism Development with a project

report for an amount of Rs. 923.00 lakh which was sent to the Administrative department. This

project was initiated by Hon’ble Chief Minister of the J&K State on 12.05.2010 in presence of

Hon’ble Minsiter for Environment, Forests and wildlife. The development of this place under Eco-

Tourism requires adequate funds. Upto 2010-11 an amount of Rs. 140.00 lakh were provided. The

main components of the project are construction of two wooden huts, laying of water supply line,

construction of tank, natural trail/trekking routes, chain link fencing etc.

For promotion of Eco-Tourism in the State, the Govt. has created an ecotourism wing in the

J&K Wildlife protection department headed by a Chief Conservator of Forest.

Other Forest based industries which add to the economic growth rate of the state include:

1) Resin and Turpentine industry 2) Kashmir Willow industry 3) Joinery, Ply and other wood

based industries 4) Pharmaceuticals 5) Kashmir Wood Works Industry 6) Match Factory 7)

Leather and Tanning Industry. 8) Forest Based Small Scale Industries, etc.

CHAPTER – IV

FOREST PROTECTION Due to increase in population and developmental activities, the pressure on forests has

tremendously increased and in its wake, forests have become highly degraded and fragmented.

The damages to the forests by indiscriminate felling gathered momentum after 1990 which largely

remained unchecked during the turmoil period in the State. The extent of such damages is not fully

known as no sound statistics of such damages could be ascertained. Various preventive

measures were taken by the Forest Department to protect the forest resources of the state. The

Forest Protection Force equipped with arms is one such measure brought into force by the state

government.

ILLICIT FELLINGS The most challenging task of the Forest Department is the protection of forests against illicit

fellings. The extent of such damages is alarmingly increasing, primarily because of the growing

population, increase in the standard of living of the people, change in social structure, increase in

the prices of timber, increase in demand for timber in the industrial sector and opening up of forest

area through a network of roads. The damage done to the forests by way of illicit felling,

encroachment, unauthorized grazing and forest fires has also shown an alarming trend. There is,

however, effective check over the illicit fellings by the vigilant forest staff and forest protection

force. This has resulted in a gradual decrease in such cases been registered. The following table

shows the number of cases registered and those disposed off, during the year’s 2009-2010 and

2010-2011.

The Forest Protection Committees (FPCs) at grass root level, i.e. at village level have been set up/ framed to eradicate the menace of damage to forest with the active participation of the people. In addition, massive plantations have been raised on the pattern of Joint Forest Management involving people with a provision for sharing the harvest, later, which has given encouraging results.

FOREST FIRES

Forest fire is a regular feature in most sub tropical and temperate forests of the State. Fires

occur naturally and are also set by man. Uncontrolled fires are capable of doing considerable

damage to the forest wealth. This is the most devastating tool employed by the man to clear off

the forest areas for its conversion into cultivable lands, for creating grazing ground and for

production of charcoal.

In order to minimize the fire incidents, Forest Department has adopted various fire

combating operations like establishment of fire lines, slash burning and deployment of sufficient

staff to fight and control forest fires. There is further need that anti-fire measures are strengthened

for purpose of forest protection.

During the year 2010-2011, as reported by various divisions, 228 fire incident cases were

registered involving an area of 664.63 hectares of forest land. Division-wise information is given in

Appendix No: XXIII

19


UNREGULATED GRAZING

The Forests of the State are under tremendous pressure from the huge cattle population

including Sheep and Goat. Inadvertently due to the movement on migration for grazing animals,

considerable damages do happen. It is common to see large number of cattle grazing over the

forestlands. Efforts are made by the Department to check overgrazing to prevent loss to the forest

regeneration. The overgrazing has always remained a burning problem because it adversely

affects the natural re-generation of forests. While young recruits can always be seen in midst of

the forests, they fail to establish due to over grazing and trampling by cattle. The incidence of

grazing during the past two years is given here under.

During the year 2009-10 and 2010-11 an amount of Rs.08.72 lakhs and Rs 08.27 lakhs respectively were recovered on account of grazing fee.

ENCROACHMENT

The people living near the forests have continous tendency of encroaching upon

forestlands. This is a serious problem with which the Forest Department is confronted with.

Measures on warfooting basis are needed to be taken for eviction of encroachment on forest

lands. Low productivity & limited availability of Agriculture land, land hungerness and enormous

rise in population have led to the encroachment of forest land. The diversion of land necessarily

required for developmental activities like roads, hydroelectric projects, railways etc. has increased

pressure on the forest land. Upto the year 2010 –11, the total forest land enchorached is reported

to be 18347.19 ha. The province wise breakup is detailed hereunder:-

Division-wise details are given in Appendix No: XXV.

Efforts are made by the field, supervisory and executive staff of the Forest department to

initiate all possible measures against any attempt of encroachment. Wherever needed the support

of the Forest protection Force, Police or revenue department is sought. This assignment is

specially attended at places near to the urban cities of Srinagar, Jammu, and Towns etc.

SAW MILLS The Forest Department with the assistance of Forest Protection Force and Police are continuously combating the menace of illegal saw mills. The data regarding the saw mills is given hereunder:

Note: Further registration of saw mills has been stopped w.e.f. 15.02.1997 vide Forest Department endorsement No: FST/lease/60/96 dated 15.02.1997. CORRECTIVE MEASURES In order to control such damages to the forests, the state government has taken up several steps both administrative as well as legislative. These steps have brought perceptible improvement, some of these are: ADMINISTRTIVE & DEVELOPMENTAL MEASURES I. Three demarcation divisions, two in Jammu and one in Kashmir Provinces have been

activated. The demarcation work of the forest areas at many places is done by the division

to facilitate eviction or loss of forest land.

II. In order to ensure easy mobility and inspection of the forests, a network of roads, inspection

21


paths has been laid. Besides, gutted buildings are renovated and new ones constructed

which facilitate the stay of inspecting officers. In addition strength of vehicular fleet has

been enhanced.

III. A network of forest check posts has been established to control illegal movement of forest

produce and sufficient number of forest personnel has been deployed on these posts.

Further many Forest check posts are exclusively manned by FPF to avoid and check nexus

between smugglers and unscrupulous elements in the forest department, if any.

IV. Unauthorized saw mills / band-saws established in A&B concession zones and even in C

zone have been dismantled.

V. Eviction proceedings are initiated against the persons registered for encroachment of forest

land.

VI. To combat forest fires a network of fire lines has been made.

VII. Programme for the development of pasture and grazing lands and fodder resources has

been undertaken by various departments.

VIII. Besides J&K Forest Department, the Social Forestry Department, Directorate of the Soil

Conservation, Agriculture Department and Sheep Husbandry Department have initiated

steps in improving the productivity of pasture and grazing lands. New leguminous and

nutritious palatable species have been introduced with the involvement of local people. The

results are encouraging and such activities expanded.

IX. The working plan circle has taken up the revision of the working plans with a view to ensure

its technical applicability in consideration of the ground situations under the changing

scenario to meet aspirations of the people of the state.

X. Forest Development agencies have been established in different districts of the State to

achieve the objectives of National Afforestation Programme with the participation of the

local communities.

XI. Many integrated projects aimed at improving forest. Soil and agriculture have been taken

up as a part of PM’s special package eg. Catchment Area Treatment of Jhelum, Chenab

and Ujh basin.

XII. Under CM’s special package Chief Ministers Participatory Forest development schemes are

being implemented in all the districts.

XIII. To improve the health of the Chir forests and in light of the decision taken by the

Government under Cabinet Decision NO.211/15 dated:-18.10.2003 issued under Govt.

order No:-500-FST of 2003 dated:-21.10.2003, a yearly reduction in the number of blazes

for extraction of resin is made.

XIV. To combat the timber smuggling policy a decision has been taken by the Govt. vide Cabinet

Decision NO.211/15 dated:-18.10.2003 issued under Govt. order No:-499-FST of 2003

dated:-21.10.2003 to provide 10% worth cost of the smuggled timber seized as reward to

the persons who give information about the smuggled timber stocks which are

subsequently seized, confiscated and disposed off.

22


XV. To regularize manufacture and sale of charcoal and to prevent illegal felling of forest trees

for charcoal, making the Government has framed rules under “Jammu and Kashmir

Registration and Control of Charcoal Manufacture and Sale Rules 2006” where under

installation of Charcoal bhatties / Klins has been banned upto 8 kms distance of

demarcated forest boundary.

LEGISLATIVE MEASURES

I. Nationalization of forest working Act of 1985 which has come into force with effect from 24th

September 1985 and Forest Working Act of 1987 operational from 21st April 1987 have

impose a ban on forest working by private persons/parties.

II. The Jammu and Kashmir Forest (Amendment) Act of 1997. The Amended Act empowers

DFO with the Quasi-Judicial powers like confiscation of tools and vehicles involved in forest

offences. Further appeal against the decision of DFO is only with Sessions Court. The

amount of fine and period of imprisonment have also been raised making the new Act more

deterrent. Technical clearance from DFO has been made obligatory before lodging forest

offence cases in Courts by the police. The police officers have been made duty bound to

render assistance when requisitioned for the purpose of operation of Section 26, 35 and

Section 36 of this Act.

III. Installation of saw mills or other forest based industries is not allowed without prior

permission of the Hon’ble Supreme court of India. Those existing within 8 kms of forest

boundry have been ordered to be shifted.

IV. Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has imposedn b oan green felling of trees growing naturally

in the forests of Jammu and Kashmir vide its order dated 12th December 1996 on Writ

Petition No. 202 (Civil) 1995. However, the hygienic removals have been allowed in case of

State Forest Corporation.

V. Legislation to control over exploitation of Medicinal and Aromatics Plants has been enacted.

VI. Forest Conservation Act 2001 has stopped excessive and unregulated use of forest

resources or diversion of its land.

CHAPTER – V

DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES The task of Conservation, Development and Sustainable Management of the Forest treasure of the State is performed by the J&K Forest Department under various programmes i.e Plan schemes (State & District sectors), Centrally Sponsored Schemes, External aided projects etc. The brief epitome of these schemes is given hereunder:- Rehabilitation of Degraded Forests:- The State forests are under tremendous pressure to meet various social obligations and market demand for various products. Forests degrade due to varied pressures which necessitate their rehabilitation. RDF is the major plan scheme which aims at rehabilitation of degraded forests in the State. It is estimated that more than 10000 Sq. Kms. Of forest area is degraded in the state. Through RDF scheme efforts are afoot to envisage rehabilitate the degraded and denuded forest land on scientific lines by way of plantation, construction of check dams, water harvesting structures and augmenting natural regeneration. During the year 2010-11 an area of 2194 hact was taken in hand under the programme in the State against an amount of Rs. 490.75 lacs. A total number of 14.22 lakh plants were planted. Development of Conifer Forests:- In the state of Jammu & Kashmir, conifer forests occupy 31.80 % of the forest area. There are four main species of conifers viz. Deodar (Cedrus deodara), Kail (Pinus wallichiana), Fir (Abies pindro) and Chir (Pinus roxburghii). All the four species are economically very important for the state. Deodar, kail and Fir are the principle species and much sought after for construction of houses and furniture in the state. Chir is important specie which yields resin and raw material for turpentine oil and a large number of byproducts which are used in a number of medicines, cosmetics, perfumery and toiletries. Apart from this, chir timber is used in construction works in sub-tropical areas of state. On an average all the coniferous species take 100-170 years to mature. More than 2/3rd of the total geographical area falls in temperate zone of the state, which is covered with coniferous trees and meets the requirement of timber, firewood, grazing etc. As a result of heavy pressure the coniferous forests have degraded over the years. These coniferous forests need immediate attention for up-gradation and development with the help of various silvi-cultural operations assisted by regeneration practices and plantation. For this purpose quality plants are also raised in numberless nurseries including high-tech nurseries developed by the department. During 2010-11 against an amount of Rs. 15.00 lacs was spent on the programme. Development of Minor Forest Produce including Medicinal Plants (M.F.P):- The diverse geological formation coupled with different climate and great variation in altitude have led to the diversity in flora and fauna of the forests of Jammu and Kashmir State which is believed to have as many as 4440 species of plants.With tremendous biotic pressure on forests, the medicinal plant wealth is also vanishing where at one time they luxuriantly flourished. The medicinal plant resource of the state has tremendous potential for becoming an independent industry, provided adequate funding is made available. 50% of the plant species used in British pharmacopoeia are reported to grow in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Nearly 572 plant species have been reported to be of medicinal value. The state has the potential of being declared as a Herbal state. The other NTFP of the state are Resin, Anardana, Guchhies and other forest produce. In order to replenish the forests with Medicinal Plant wealth a ban was imposed by the J&K Govt. vide Order No. 290-FST2004 dated 14-07-2004 and 22/FST of 2005 Dated 26-05-2005 for 5 years for extraction of MFP from forest areas. In order to promote this sector a scheme funded by National Medicinal Plants Board has been taken in hand for conservation, Development

29


and sustainable Management of Medicinal Plants for a period of 3 years from 2009-10 in the districts of Bandipora, Ganderbal, Kulgam, Doda, Udhampur, Kathua, Rajouri and Leh.

Pasture and Fodder Development:- The livestock population of the state is around 100 lakhs. Rs. 500 crore worth fodder is collected/ grazed from the forests. Forests provide approximately 25 lakhs tones of fodder annually. Most of the upper areas of the state have pastoral economy. The shortage of fodder adversely effects livestock population and its productivity in the state. The forest pastures and grazing lands in the state are under heavy pressure. The problem needs to be addressed in the right earnest by developing pastures across the state to ensure adequate availability of fodder for the live stock.A separate Circle looks after this important assignment in the Forest Department provided with separate Agrostology Divisions in Jammu & Kashmir regions. This activity as a component in some other schemes is also undertaken by the DFOs/Project Officers in the State including Leh and Kargil Districts. Chief Minister’s Participatory Afforestation Scheme:- The scheme was launched in order to involve people in the regeneration of degraded forests and increasing the tree cover on vacant lands from the year 2004-05, on pilot basis. The objective is to raise plantation on open forest lands, vacant lands and other Government lands by providing all the benefits which occur from such plantations to the beneficiaries involved in the programme. The Forest Department provides the infrastructural support viz. planting materials, fencing materials and expert guidance to the beneficiaries. The scheme is being implemented in 42 Forest Divisions including 12 divisions of Social Forestry Department. During 2010-11, an area of 787 hact. was covered under the scheme wherein 5.29 lakh plants were planted, besides other measures at a total cost of Rs. 151.22 lacs. Eco Restoration of Degraded Catchments:- Jehlum, Chenab and Ujh rivers have vast catchment areas. The rehabilitation of these catchments was takenup under PM’s special package for the state during 2002-03 which completed its term by March ending 2010.Many Hydro-electric projects like Lower Jehlum, Upper Jehlum, Uri, Doolhasti, Salal, Baghliar etc have been constructed on these rivers. The catchments of these rivers are required to be treated by Afforestation and soil and water conservation works for ensuring perennial supply of water in these rivers and to avoid siltation of reservoirs of these hydel projects. Under PM’s package limited area was treated within the given financial package and vast chunk of areas still remain untreated. Stabilization of Slip Areas on National Highway (1A):- Srinagar Jammu National Highway 1-A passes through an unstable mountain range which is geologically of recent origin. This highway along with other roads is prone to landslides and natural disintegration which has aggravated in the recent past due to degradation of forest cover. The work undertaken by forest department in stabilizing slips along the National highway has yielded good dividends and some of major slips have been stabilized. However, there are certain sore points on National highway which still need to be treated so that these may not develop into major slides, if left unattended. The National Highway Project was started as an “Avalanche Hazards Mitigation Programme” during the year 1995-96 at a total cost of Rs 282.00 lakh in the 9th Five Year Plan. With meager allocation the Scheme continues as ongoing one for works like plantation, construction of check dams and other allied works to check soil erosion etc. During 2010-11 with an available amount of Rs. 40.00 lacs an area of 60 hact. was taken in hand under the scheme. Sufficient funding under the scheme will go a long way to protect the juglar vein.

30


Eco Task Force:- The Eco Task Force Project (E.T.F) is a joint venture of J&K Forest Department and Territorial Army. Initially, it was launched in the year 1 988 to rehabilitate the Ruie Catchments in Samba area of Jammu province. The Territorial Army provides the manpower by utilizing the services of Ex-army personnel and the funds for the purpose are provided by Ministry of Environment & Forests. The Forest Department provides the expert guidance and the planting material. This project was awarded “Indira Priya Darshani Vriksh-Mitra” by Government of India in the year 1994. Due to inadequate financial resources the project received a setback. The project was approved for implementation up to 10th plan period viz; March 2007. However on the insistence of the Army and the locals the extension of the project has been approved till the end of 11 th five year plan. During 2010-11 an area of 75 hact. was taken in hand with a financial achievement of Rs. 20.00 lacs and planting 1.46 lac plants. River valley Projects:- Macro Management of Agriculture funded by Ministry of Agriculture and Coperation (MOA&C), Govt. of India is a scheme implemented in the State of Jammu & Kashmir routed through Agriculture Department. Two River Valley Projects viz. Thein Dam FD-II and Pohru, executed through Forest Department are part of this programme whereunder catchment areas of Flood Prone Pohru and Ravi rivers are tackled mainly by afforestation and Soil & Water Conservation activities.The Govt. of India and State fund the programme in the ratio of 90:10 respectively. From 2010-11 annual operations, the work in Agriculture land has been entrusted to the Agriculture department by the state Govt restricting works by Forest Department mainly to forest areas and some Waste lands. Though the annual programme is yearly approved but the spending depends on actual release of funds which is based on overall performance of the scheme MMA at the State level. Urban Forestry:- The rapid urbanization has witnessed removal of tree cover and green wealth, consequently causing environmental hazards in the cities and towns. A need is being felt to green the urban areas by mass plantation in vacant lands, road sides, highways and parks. The plantation of ornamental plants on the private lands, and in the residential areas is also encouraged. The funds under urban Forestry schemes are therefore, being provided for achieving the desired results especially in the two cites of Jammu & Srinagar. During the year under this programme 0.46 lac plants of different species were planted. Quality plant production is also taken up by the Department to achieve objective. Research, Education and Training:- Research is a contineous feature for management of forests on latest scientific technology. Education and training are must for skills up gradation, capacity building and enhancing the efficiency of the organization. The state has three training schools viz. KFT School Chittarnar, Bandipora (Kashmir), Soil Conservation School Miran-Sahib (Jammu) and Forest Guard Training School Doomi-Akhnoor (Jammu). Apart from basic courses in forestry, regular refresher courses are either conducted or arranged by the department inside and outside the State. In order to keep pace of development and management of forests & environments at par with National & International level, many inservice compulsory & Refresher Training Courses were attended by senior Officers of the Department within India and abroad. These courses as a policy matter have been designed, arranged and funded by the Ministry of Environment & Forests, Govt. of India.

31


Working Plan and Research:- The working plans are basic tools of Management of forests and are required to be prepared after every 10 to 15 years rotation for each territorial forest division. The preparation of working plans is a continuous process.The existing infrastructure includes three working plan Divisions, one Photo Interpretation Division and one Resources Survey Division which are covered under the scheme. There is dire need of further development of infrastructure and communication technology.The digitalization of forest maps on (GIS platform) is being attended to through Photo-interpretation (P.I.) Division. Consolidation and Demarcation:- Due to population explosion over the years coupled with fast urbanization and the land as a limited resource, the forest areas are under tremendous pressure. To save forest and forestry crop, the first charge of the Department is to clearly and boldly demarcate its forest boundaries.To demarcate 20230 Sq. Kms forest area of the State, 2.83 lakh boundary pillars running on 43200 Kms main line are required to be installed. The demarcation, consolidation and settlement of forest land needs top priority.For the purpose of Settlement & Demarcation a Chief Conservator of Forests (S&D) has separately been provided in the new organizational setup. The DFO Demarcation each for Kashmir valley & Jammu is provided. Further strengthening of this branch is required. Forest Protection:- Protection of forests assumes highest priority and therefore adequate resources are needed to see that the forest and biodiversity is protected from all ills. The protection of existing forests is cost effective as compared to forest plantations. This scheme aims at taking preventive measures to control forest fires besides providing infrastructural facilities to achieve the objectives of eradicating illicit timber trade and damage caused due to livestock. From 10th five-year plan, the scheme is being implemented only under District Plan and allowed to continue as such for 11th five year plan as well. Planning Coordination and Publicity:- This includes survey work, project formulation, establishment of communication mechanism and awareness campaign. The forest department is organized into 30 divisions which are basic units of forest management and Administration. These Divisions are spread over 22 Districts of the state and require vigorous awareness campaign for protection and management of Forests for effective public interface and public support and their participation in various programmes of the forestry sector. Soil and Water Conservation works:- Being hilly state the soil and water conservation measures are must to be executed. The general terrain of the state is generally steep and sloppy, therefore, harvesting of water and arresting of slit is necessary. The Soil & Water conservation measures involve both vegetative and non-vegetative treatments called minor Engineering measures. These are taken up preferably in an appropriate proportion depending upon the site requirement.

32


Survey of Khair trees:- Khair trees grow in the sub tropical area of the state and are a cash crop. The heart wood of Khair trees provides raw material for the cutch and katha industry. This specie can go a long way in improving the socio economic status of the people. No ceiling has been conveyed for survey of the species. At present felling of Khair trees in the State is banned as per the order of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India. Development of Dera Ki Gali (Eco- Tourism):- The forests of the state have vast potential of Eco- Tourism. Many Eco- Tourism destinations could be identified. One such destination has been selected as Dera- Ki- Gali under Eco- Tourism development. The development of some other places under Eco- tourism requires adequate funds.

Buildings:- Proper infrastructure in the shape of rest houses, office accommodations, check posts, staff quarters and guard huts is essential for protection and rehabilitation of forests including touring of the inspecting officers. The funds provided under this ongoing scheme are spent for developing these facilities. However due to inadequate funding, the department could not achieve the desired results; yet the efforts are on to see that in most of the vulnerable areas these facilities are developed. Gutted Buildings:- Assets of the Forest Department like rest houses, guard/ chowkidar huts, residential quarters, check posts and office buildings have been the soft targets during the militancy period in the valley. More than 135 such establishments were reported to have been gutted / damaged. Due to paucity of funds, only a small number has been restored/ renovated. The reconstruction programme will be continued till such gutted structures are completed. New Schemes Monitoring & Evaluation:- To ensure effective and proper utilization of funds, an independent system for concurrent Monitoring and Evaluation of works is must. Formation of village forest Committee and their involment in planning and execution of works is also a step in this connection. Internal and independent third party monitoring is also must for effective results. Participatory Grazing Land Development Programme:- The pressure of cattle population on the forests is very high due to large number of cattle which is almost equal to the population of the human souls in the state. The nomadic graziers move in winter to the warm areas of Jammu especially in Jammu, Kathua and Udhampur Districts. Maximum pressure is on Jammu and Kathua forests. There is need to regenerate these forests and improve grazing areas on participatory basis and on the principle of rotational grazing under range management schemes. Similarly, during summer months these graziers move to cooler alpine / sub alpine regions of the state. The Alpine and sub-alpine forests are subjected to heavy grazing during these months. These areas also need similar treatment on the principle of rotational grazing. The expenditure to be incurred on improving the areas is to be shared by graziers concerned and the forest divisions.

33


Centrally Sponsored Schemes:- There are certain centrally sponsored schemes in operation with the Jammu & Kashmir Forest Department from different dates. These schemes are:-

1. Eco-restoration of Degraded Catchments 2. River valley Project / Flood Prone Area Project 3. Fodder Development Programme 4. Intensification of Forest Management. 5. National Afforestation Programme.

Through these developmental programmes various forest lands, waste lands and in certain cases Agriculture lands are taken up for treatment. The treatments include Afforestation, Plantation, Assisting Natural Regeneration, Water Harvesting Measures, Soil Conservation Activities, Minor Engineering Works, Grass and Pasture Development, Supplementation to Farm Production, Development and Cultivation of Medicinal Plants and other Vegetative and Non- Vegetative Measures.

CAMPA

(Compensatory Afforestation Fund Management and Planning Authority)

Under the provisions of J & K Forest, (Conservation Act), 1997, prior approval of the State Govt. is essential for diversion of Forest Lands for non forestry purposes. The basic objective of the Act is to regulate the indiscriminate diversion of Forest Lands for Non Forestry purposes so as to maintain ecological balance between the developmental needs of the State and the conservation of natural resources. When any land is diverted for any non forestry use, cost and compensation in terms of the Net Present Value (NPV), Compensatory Afforestation (CA) and other restoration activities are paid by the user agency. All these funds are at present being collected as CAMPA fund. In order to manage the Compensatory Afforestation and other funds collected on this count, the State Govt. of J & K has constituted state CAMPA ( Compensatory Afforestation Fund Management and Planning Authority) under SRO 354. As per the provisions, the CAMPA comprises three committees which are as follows:-

a) A state level CAMPA Governing Body under the Chairmanship of the Hon’ble Chief Minister with Secretary (Forests) as Member Secretary.

b) A state level CAMPA steering Committee under the Chairmanship of the Chief Secretary with CCF (P&P) as member Secretary; and

c) A state level CAMPA Executive Committee under the Chairmanship of the Principal Chief Conservator of Forests with CCF (FCA) and Nodal Officer as Member Secretary.

At central level, Compensatory Afforestation Fund Management and Planning Authority (CAMPA) has been constituted vide Government of India Notification dated 23.4.2004 in exercise of the powers conferred under Section-3 of the Environment ( Protection Act, 1986, and in pursuance of the Hon’ble Supreme Court order dated 30.10.2002 in I.A. No. 566 in Writ petition No. 202 of 1995, for the purpose of management of money towards Compensatory Afforestation, Net Present Value etc. received on account of diversion of forest land for non- forestry purpose under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980.

COLD DESERT AFFORESTATION

Ladakh region falling in cold arid zone consists of 2 Districts Leh and Kargil. The area of

the District Leh and District Kargil is 45113 and 14030 Sq. Km. respectively. The forest area is a

nominal of 29 Sq. Km. in Leh and 7 Sq. Km. in Kargil. However, vast tracts of plantations have

been developed by the forest divisions. The region is mountainous and remains cut off from

Kashmir Valley for about six to seven months due to closure of Zojila pass. Most of the areas in

Kargil receive heavy snowfall during winter months. The natural vegetation comprises of few

shrubs, herbs, wild rose and grasses etc. in a scattered manner. The vegetation is considered rich

in medicinal values on which “Amchies” depend. The moisture regime is very low, but supports the

growth of cold xerophytic plant species. The growth rate of plants especially trees is slow due to

short growing season. The tree plantations require irrigation during summers. The pressure on the

plantations/forests and upland alpine pastures in these districts is very high. People posses

fragmented agriculture holdings and rear live stocks especially sheep and goats for sustenance.

The Leh Forest Division was established during the year 1955. Most of the forest activities carried

out in the region are funded by the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC) Leh

APPLICATION OF INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY

The Jammu and Kashmir Forest Department has entered into a cooperation

agreement with the Forest Department of Madhya Pradesh for development of various forest

based ICT applications for the management of forests in the state using modern communication

technology. The State policy also lays emphasis on the full use of IT Technology in the working of

government departments, transparency, efficiency and improved service delivery system. The use

of technologies like web server, Global Positioning System (GPS), management information

system (MIS), geographic information system (GIS) and digitization of forest boundaries is

expected to enable the State Forest Department to demarcate its forest land , assess the

growing stock, crop density , types and availability forest produce easily. This facility can also

provide the details of forest boundary, topography of the area, offences committed etc very

quickly. Using digital information technology will provide easy accessibility to the remote forest

locations for the Conservation and development of the forest.

Keeping in view the above facts, Jammu and Kashmir Forest Department intends to

implement a comprehensive ICT Project over a period of Five years starting from 2010-11. In

order to executive ICT initiatives following four major components have been identified

1. DEVELOPMENT OF COMPUTER BASED COMMUNICATION NETWORK.

2. CREATION OF DATA CENTRE.

3. DEVELOPMENT OF APPLICATIONS.

4. SHARPENING THE ICT SKILLS OF THE MANPOWER.

CHAPTER - VI

FOREST PRODUCTION --- MEETING SOCIAL OBLIGATIONS

Forest Produce is of two types i.e. Major Forest Products and Minor Forest Produce.

Major Forest Products include Timber and Firewood. The Minor Forests Produce include

Medicinal Herbs, Drugs, Resin, and Charcoal etc.

TIMBER -- Extraction and Distribution People from all strata of society make use of timber in all its forms in one way or the

other. But it is mostly used for construction purposes and for making furniture and decoration

items. A good quantity of timber is also used for other human needs.

The total extraction of timber during the year 2010-11 has been 86.592 thousand

cubic meters, out of which the Forest Department extracted 33.980 thousand cubic meters.

The revenue realized on account of timber was to the tune of Rs.2938.08 lacs.

FIREWOOD

There is an extensive use of firewood in our State. People from all walks of life use firewood especially during winter season as a major source of heating energy. During the year 2010-11, the total extraction of firewood worked out to 150609.19 Qtls. and 1255.00 Qtls by the Forest Department and SFC respectively and the amount realized by the Forest Department on account of sale of firewood amounts to Rs.228.30 lacs.

RESIN

Resin tapping is the most dynamic activity of the Forest Department. Initially it was extracted from few Divisions of Jammu Province i.e Udhampur and Billawar Divisions. But since 1972 the activity got momentum and as such more Chir Forests of Reasi, Rajouri and Poonch were brought under Resin Tapping. Rill method technique of Resin Tapping has assumed greater importance and is deemed to be a revenue and employment generating activity of the Forest Department. However Resin tapping as a policy matter has gradually been decreased over the years to improve health of chir forests. During the year under report the production of Resin was 1422.00 Metric Tones and the revenue realized on account of Resin has been of the order of Rs. 1028.65 lacs. The Division-wise production of Resin has been shown in Appendix No: XIII. However, circle-wise production is given hereunder

MINOR FOREST PRODUCE (MFPs)

Some important Minor Forest Products like Rasount, Katha, Bunafsha and Anardana are

extracted/ collected from the forests of the State, through Commission agents/contractors.

These minor forest products are being collected from various Forest Divisions and are dumped

in minor forest produce godowns. Wherefrom these are exported mainly outside the state.

During the year 2010-11, Rs.28.43 lacs on account of sale/royalty of different minor forest

products and Rs.1028.65 lacs on account of Resin have been realized as revenue to the

department. Out-turn of some important products is reflected in the table given below and

A number of products have also been introduced by various companies both within and outside the State. GRAZING

The live Stock Population as per 2003 census of the state is 98.993 Lakh. The Forests provide grazing and pasture facilities to the huge animal population which include cattle, Buffalo, Sheep and Goat etc. The locals and the nomadic community of the state enjoy grazing rights in forests and pasture lands adjoining forests. It is common to see large number of cattle grazing over the forestlands. The availability of potential grazing areas has always been a strong demand of the farming and nomadic community of the state. As per estimate there is an area of 4584 Sq. Kms under pasture and grazing land. The incidence of grazing during the year 201-11 is reported as 19.92 lakh Nos. It is estimated that forest provides 25 Lakh tones of fodder annually valued at approximately 500 Crores at the rate of Rs. 2.00/Kg. During the year 2010-11 an amount of Rs. 08.27 lakhs was recovered on account of grazing fee. The Division wise details are given in Appendix No: XL & XL (a). Efforts are made by the Agrostology wing and other Divisions of the Forest Department to facilitate replenishment of the grazing areas with palatable grasses through various measures like sowing and planting of grass and fodder species, controlled grazing and stall feeding etc. FREE DISTRIBUTION OF GREEN FODDER/GRASS IN KASHMIR REGION during 2010-2011

CHAPTER – VII

WORKING PLAN AND RESEARCH

Working plan is a written document of forest management, aiming at continuity of

forest policy and action for controlling the treatment to the Forests. The forests of the State are

managed scientifically based on modern techniques of management. The working plans

prescribed usually for a period of 10 years are mainly prepared for assessing the total growing

stock of a Forest Division and the yield of timber is thus calculated.

The forests of the J&K State have been managed under regular working plans for

the last one hundred years. All the forests of the state have now been covered under proper

working plans. The forest divisions of Rajouri, Kathua, Udhampur, Batote, Doda and Sindh are

covered by approved working plans. Besides working plan of Billawar and Nowshera have been

revised but not approved yet. Normally the working plans are prepared by the working plan

Divisions specially provided for the job. However, the J&K forest Department has felt the urgency

of revising the working plans of the forest divisions throughout the state for which measures are

being taken.

RESEARCH Forest research in the State was started on systematic lines during 1928 when a

separate division with headquarters at Srinagar was created. The division did pioneering work with

regard to introduction of new species. It has five Research Stations in Kashmir namely Seer,

Tangmarg, Chitternar, Shanka racharya Park and Ningli.

During 1976 another Research Division was created in Jammu region. This division

is looking after the Silvicultural practices carried out in Jammu region.

In order to give a stimulus to the Research activities these two divisions have been

placed under the Administrative Control of Director, State Forest Research Institute (S.F.R.I)

and as per programme formulated by the Institute, the following research activities are to get the

priority.

BIO-DIVERSITY REHABILITATION

Laying out of preservation plots: The establishment of preservation plots is

essential for studying the progress of ecological succession as well as to preserve various natural

forest types for posterity. These plots provide valuable information on Flora, Fauna, Ecological

Succession, Forest Productivity and effects of biotic pressure on Forests etc. These plots would

be the field laboratories for generation of information related to conservation of natural bio-system

and for ecological research, education, demonstration, and extension.

47


LAYING OUT OF SAMPLE PLOTS Laying out of sample plots constitute an important aspect in Forestry Research. They

provide periodic measurements for preparation of yield and other such tables.

BIO-MASS STUDIES This study provides ample information about the existing Bio-Mass production level of the

forests which will be a bench mark for working out the projected increase in the Bio-Mass

production through improved management techniques.

STUDY ON RARE/THREATENED SPECIES With the ever increasing pressures on our forests, the vegetation cover has thinned down to

such an extent that some of the Forest Species have reached a threshold level of extinction. In

order to quantify the level of such degeneration an intensive survey and investigation of such

threatened and rare species has to be carried out.

TREE IMPROVEMENT This includes trials in nurseries and plantations for eventual selection of site specific, most

suited and gainful provenance.Under this programme, the abandoned nurseries of the Research

Division Srinagar are being revived.Different trials of conifers in poly-pots are under observation in

these nurseries. In addition a nursery stands established to study different species of poplar and

willows.

FOREST INFLUENCES I. Establishment of hydro/meteorological stations.

II. Watershed studies.

FOREST UTILISATION Forests are no more the timber-producing units only. They bear substantial potential for

diversified use and increased productivity of Minor Forest Products Viz:- Resin, Medicinal and

aromatic products etc. In this context a nursery of medicinal plants has been established to carry

out the studies.

Besides above some of the other research activities of importance being carried out are a, Provenance Trails b, Vegetative propagation of difficult trees c, Biotechnology and micropropogation of economically important trees d, Plant introduction of newer spp e, Forest Herbarium development and maintenance f, Forest Pathology & Entomology g, Seed Laboratory for seed studies h, Seed Production Area and Seed orchards I, Quality Seed procurement J, Forest Management k, Agro Forestry l, Non Wood forest products

FOREST EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Training is very important aspect of the organization involving specialized

knowledge, skills and its application to the organizational need. In the Forest Department training

of Range Officers and above is being imparted outside the State. Foresters and Forest Guards are

being trained in the Departmental Institutions of the State itself. For imparting training to Foresters

and Forest Guards, Forest Department has established three training Schools one at Chitternar

(Kashmir) another at Miran Sahib (Jammu) and third one at Doomi Akhnoor ( Jammu).

A. KASHMIR FOREST TRAINIGN SCHOOL CHITTERNAR (BANDIPORA)

This school was established in 1911-12. The school is imparting training to Foresters

and Forest Guards in basic Forestry. There is one year course for Foresters and 6 months course

for Forest Guards. During the year 2010-2011, 31 candidates of the Forest and other Departments

received training and all were declared successful.

B. SOIL CONSERVATION TRAINING SCHOOL MIRAN SAHIB

This school was established in 1961-62 with the objective to impart specialized

training in soil and water conservation to the inservice officials of organizations such as

Agriculture, Horticulture, State Forest Corporation, Directorate of Soil Conservation, Wildlife,

Social Forestry, IWDP and Forest Protection Force. The nomination of trainees is made by the

Principal Chief Conservator of Forests Jammu and Kashmir. The duration of training is 6 months

for Foresters and 3 months for Forest Guards. Motivators of Social Forestry were also imparted

training in the School with the course duration of 3 months. Besides imparting Soil Conservation

Training, the school has been conducting KFC training since 1991-92 due to disturbed condition in

Kashmir and till date 348 KFC trainees and 23 Forest Guards have passed out from this institute.

During the year 2010-2011 the institute imparted training to 37 candidates who were declared

successful.

C. FOREST GUARD TRAINING SCHOOL DOOMI AKHNOOR

It imparts training to Forest Guards & Class IV employees of the forest department.

Duration of Course is 3 months. It trains two batches in a year. Forest Guards of newly created

Forest Protection Force also take training from the said institute. During the year 2010-11 the

institute imparted training to 21 candidates and all were declared successful.

FOREST EXPLOITATION

GROWING STOCK

The working plans provide an instrument for Forest Management. Forests as a whole come under scientific and systematic management. About 99 % of total Forest area is covered by sanctioned working plans and some are now under the process of revision. However, the growing stock as per available plans for whole of the State is summarized as under:-

SYSTEM OF EXPLOITATION Forests play a vital role in the general development of the State through supply and utilization of various forest products depending on the available yield. Even though the exploitation of forest area is regulated as per prescription laid dwon in working plans, no green extraction is being carried out. After the Hon’ble Supereme court of India imposed ban on green fellings of trees in its order dated 12th December 1996 on writ petition No.202 (cival 1995) from the forests of Jammu and Kashmir growing naturally, no extraction of green trees is being carried out. However, after the markings are conducted for dry standing trees, the marked compartment is handed over to the SFC for exploitation and disposal. The Forest Department also extracts dry fallen trees for maintaining the hygiene of the forests.

During the year 2010-11 a volume of 18.580 lac Cfts. timber was extracted by the State Forest Corporation out of the markings handed over by the forest department. The region wise extraction position is as follows:-

S.No Region Volume Extracted

CHAPTER – IX

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE EXPORT The export of timber had been increasing progressively till working by private forest lessees

was banned in 1985. A ban on timber export by other agencies was imposed in 1990. After the

expiry of the banned period it again started and continued till December-1996, when the Hon’ble

Supreme Court restricted export of timber only through State Forest Corporation. Therefore, there

has been a quantitative descend in the export of this Major Forest Produce from the J & K State.

During the year 2010-11 timber to the extent of 0.529 thousand cums was exported.

Further, Minor Forest Products of the order of 16668.27 Quintals was exported from J&K State.

Item-wise details of such exports are given in Appendix No: XVII.

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE With the change in role from exploitation to conservation, Forest Department is no

longer considered a revenue generating machinery as had been in the past. This is because of the

changing concept in the policy of Government, in view of the decimation of Forest cover and

Environmental requirements and awareness. However, during the year 2010-11 the revenue

receipts were to the tune of 4423.26 lacs. Following figures show the position of timber and

M.F.Ps exported, revenue realized from all sources and total expenditure incurred on Forestry and

other schemes (Plan & Non-Plan).

CHAPTER – X CONTRIBUTION OF SISTER ORGANIZATIONS

It needs to be appriaciated that the role and functions of other wings of the forest

department though distinct and different, are complimentary to territorial forests as they help in

development of forests directly or indirectly and reducing pressure on natural forests.

J&K SOCIAL FORESTRY DEPARTMENT Social Forestry is taken up primarily on nonforest lands to produce fuel wood, fodder

and small timber in close vicinity of habitations in consultation and active participation of the local

people. Plantations are taken up on available wastelands and as such social forestry has attained

priority. The social forestry project was started in Jammu & Kashmir as a world bank aided project

in 1981-82, initially for a period of five years. The project was extended upto 1990-91. Since then

the project works have continued as an activity under the state funding. After a decision to close

the organization vide Govt order No. 640-GAD of 2001 dated 14-06-2001, the J&K Govt vide

another order No. 481-FST of 2004 dated:- 28-10-2004 converted the Social Forestry Project in to

a full fledged department, headed by a Director of the rank of Chief Conservator of Forests,

realizing fully well the need for reviving the department to enable it to take up plantations in the

degraded forest lands and waste lands on a massive scale in the following categories of

plantations.

1. Raising village wood lots.

2. Rehabilitation of degraded forests.

3. Raising of strip plantation.

4. Raising of institutional plantations.

5. Wet lands.

6. Farm Forestry.

Since inception of the project in 1982, a total number of 28.05 crore plants have been

planted / distributed covering an area of about 1.60 Lakh Hectares. The plantations have been

undertaken both within and outside the natural forests, in available wastelands, village common

lands, Wetlands, Roadsides, Canalsides, Railwayline sides and institutional lands etc. The

department helps to induce community and individual participation in creating, maintaining and

protecting the plantation program to be launched for such purpose so as to share benefits in the

contemplated Joint Management Program. It also helps to provide employment to unemployed

and under employed people, particularly the landless agricultural labourers and other traditionally

weaker sections of rural community.

The Project has already its impact in terms of meeting the timber requirement of nearly 7.00

lacs fruit boxes annually in Kashmir region from the farm forests raised since 1982. Eucalyptus

53


plantations in Jammu region have played a similar role where the entire requirement of Veneer

and Ply board industry is being met from the plantations raised in farm forestry sector.

People’s participation has picked up well and good results have been achieved which stand

appreciated by the State Govt as well as by the Govt of India. Country’s prestigious award “Indra

Priyadarshni Vrikshamitra Award”, with citation, trophy and a cash award of Rs.50000 has been

conferred on the social forestry project of Jammu & Kashmir State for its good work.

J&K SOIL CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT

Soil and water are the basic constituents of primary productivity are extremely vital natural resource intrinsically linked with the survival and sustenance of life. Soil forms the land which intern acts as stratum for vegetal growth and medium to receive snow and rainfall, the only source of water.

As per estimates more than 70% of the land in the State is prone to various kinds of erosion which in turn adversely affects the developmental pace and the productivity of the state. The major adverse effects of these problems are land slides, depletion of ground water reduction in agricultural productivity by way of loss of soil fertility, deposition of sediments in the water bodies, damaging of water courses because of Nallah bank erosion, shifting of sand dunes especially in Nobra valley in Ladakh region etc. etc. The Department undertakes soil and water conservation measures in badly affected micro watersheds on scientifically approved methodology. The Soil Conservation Department, maintaining its focus on the micro watersheds taken in hand, proposes to consolidate the works and take up new works wherever required aiming at effective treatment of the whole micro watersheds. Further need based new works are also to be taken up on public demand.
