BAMBOO APPLICATIONS AND SUPPORT SCHEME (BAANS)

Other than the basic elements of the Earth, if there is one natural resource that constitutes the social and economic life and the culture of the North East Region (NER), it is bamboo. It is a boon that this vibrant, multi-faceted resource is green and renewable. The people of the NER, especially the poor, rural and the tribal people have used and harnessed this resource for their very basic needs for centuries. This has created a sound and sustained pattern of use and the necessary skills and expertise to manipulate and fashion this material for a large number of applications and uses. Advances in bamboo technology and related applications have enabled not only an expansion of the use of the resource in new and key areas but also to generate substantial value addition, which in turn makes it possible for the producers and users to earn higher incomes and sustainable livelihoods. The industrial use of bamboo has substantial opportunities for equitable employment on account of decentralised production processes and value chains. The interventions of the National Mission on Bamboo Applications demonstrated the efficacy and advantages of industrial uses of bamboo, value addition, income generation and technology infusion.

BAMBOO APPLICATIONS AND SUPPORT SCHEME MIZORAM

Mizoram is richly endowed with bamboo forests (6,446 sq. km), covering 31 % of the area (21,087 sq. km) of the State. The growing stock is estimated at 25.3 million tonnes, and the potential availability at 5.8 million tonnes.

Raw bamboo is sold through permits obtained from the Forest Department, and the mahal system. It provides significant revenue for the State. The prevailing permit and mahal systems cover only areas half a mile on both sides of major roads and rivers. Most bamboo resources, especially in remote and inaccessible areas are not covered.

PRODUCT APPLICATIONS - SMALL ENTERPRISE

PROVIDING TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT Establish integrative models of small scale enterprise, providing technology support, developing machinery and tooling, and encouraging design and product diversification.

Developing and disseminating a corpus of information and knowledge is the first step on the road to change. Series of assessment, documentation and knowledge-gathering exercises had been taken. Information is collated and reviewed, and then disseminated in user-friendly formats.
