Introduction
The
forest resource is very important resource for any society and it should
be utilized to its best extent in order to provide the society better
prospects of living. Moreover the productivity of the forest may be
optimized through appropriate growth & yield studies. The yield of the
forests can be increased by adopting the better management practices.
The
analysis of the complex interaction between the level of growing stock,
timber harvest and tree growth, is the central theme of forest
management. Effective management of forest resources requires a
pro-active attitude and an ability to cope with complexity. Pro-active
in contrast to re-active management acknowledges the need for effective
planning. |
guggal performance Trial |
| The unit of Forest Management is looking after works related to Forest
mensuration, Biometrics, market survey and various aspects of management
of forests; |
| for
example growth & yield modeling and predictions in forests and
plantations, statistical distribution functions and their application in
forestry, lopping management, assessment of the market trends regarding
prices of different forest produces and collection of forestry
statistics data. |
|
 Evaluation of Teak Progeny Trial at Gujarat |
| Objectives |
 |
Construction of volume and
yield equations for important arid zone tree species. |
|
Development of site index
equations and growth & yield functions viz., potential density, mortality,
basal area prediction and thinning models for important tree species grown
in the States of Rajasthan & Gujarat. |
|
Lopping studies on important
fodder trees of arid and semi-arid region |
|
Application of statistical
distribution functions in growth modeling and defining size class
distribution in forest stands. |
|
Market survey regarding prices
of timber, fuel wood, bamboos and collection of forestry statistics data. |
