Abstract:
Minor forest produce has great significance for forest dwellers in terms of livelihood dependency. These are a major source of income for people residing in scheduled and tribal areas and the areas near to it. The marketing system of MFP has resulted in the exploitation of the people who are dependent on forests for their income. There are several issues related to the management of minor forest produce like issues related to collection, procurement, processing and marketing etc. Government has taken many initiatives to deal with these issues at various levels. Some of the states like MP have prepared the roadmap to utilize and protect the minor forest produce in the larger interest of community and environment.
