Supplying small timber for public benefits
Diverting forest land to agricultural purposes

Forest area divided in to
1. Protected forest- improvement of climatic
2. Commercial forest- supply of timber
3. Minor forests- collection of fire wood
4. Pasture lands- cattle raring
04/11/23 5
Shifting cultivation; Large area of forest degraded No restriction for Shifting cultivation Loss of soil nutrients
Forest used for supplying fuel and fodder or grazing for local consumption
04/11/23 6
Forest was used;
small timber -building wood - fuel leaves - manure ,fodder thorns -fencing grass -grazing for cattle edible products -foods

FOREST POLICY1952

essential national needs ; The need for balanced and complementary land-use.
The need for checking of soil erosion
Denudation in the catchments areas for soil and water conservation
04/11/23 9
Establishing treelands- public use
Ensuring increasing supplies of grazing, small wood for agricultural implements,
sustained supply of timber - defense, communications and industry.

Functional classification of forests; (A) Protection forests- Physical, climatic
considerations
(B) National forests-Defence, communications, industry,
(C) Village forest-Local requirements

Control of private forests; Excessive exploitation of forests for personal use.
In order to arrest such destruction of forests,

forests.
60 % forests in the Himalayas, the Deccan, and other mountainous
20% forests-In the plains.

Wild Life: A Central Board for Wild life has been constituted
by the Government of India in the Ministry of Food and Agriculture at 4th April, 1952.
Grazing: Grazing should be regulated.
Continuous grazing in the same area should controlled.
Grazing rate should be kept at a minimum in 'Protection Forests'.
04/11/23 14
Shifting cultivation shifting cultivation converted to Taungya
Sustained yields- Afforestation schemes to replace inferior tree. sustained forest operations such as replacement of
what is removed annually
Forest education- Forestry courses are conducted for Forest
Rangers,Superior Officers at the FRI, Dehradun.

cooperation with industry; Contact between the Forest department and
industries utilization of the results of research in industrial
benefit.
Forest budgets Forestry is a long range enterprise Income from supply of large timber for defense and
industry Supply of large-sized timber is greater importance to
the general economy of the country

National Forest Policy, 1988
Basic Objectives;
To ensure environmental stability and maintenance of ecological balance
Conserving the natural heritage of the country by preserving the remaining natural forests

Increasing substantially through afforestation and social forestry programmes,
Meeting the requirements of fuel-wood, fodder, of the rural and tribal populations.
Increasing the productivity of forests to meet essential national needs.

04/11/23 25
Forestry Research; Increasing the productivity of wood and other forest
produce per unit of area per unit time
Research related to social forestry for rural/ tribal development.
