The present study presents an overview of the changing state of the
forests and explores hypotheses regarding the causes of change in
the forest cover and its quality. It also gives a brief overview of
the economic importance of the forests and the legal and
institutional framework for the forest sector in India. Forest
Strategy is inadequate to cope with all the diverse demands that
India faces in the sector. India needs a balance of its three
policy orientations - production forestry, afforestation, and
protection/regeneration - to have an effective forest strategy, in
addition to an enabling environment that promotes research and
extension and private sector participation. Support for production
forestry does not imply agreement with the essential features of
industrial forestry, like replacement of natural forests with
monoculture. It merely implies incorporation of a production
oriented approach.
