In addition to these circles and divisions, in each district, one Senior Officer
of the rank of Deputy Conservator of Forests functions as Planning and Extension
Officer. Following are the other important and core functions of the Forest
Department of Andhra Pradesh
Joint Forest Management
- The State of Andhra Pradesh(AP) has 63. 81 lakh Hectares of forest land, which
constitutes 23% of the State's geographical area. With the population of both
humans and cattle increasing, the pressure on forests has also increased leading
to their degradation. The limited number of forest department staff is not in
a position to effectively conserve the forest resources. Hence, Joint Forest
Management has been adopted, which involves the local villagers in managing
and protecting the forests.
- The (Indian) National Forest Policy of 1988 has recognized the need for seeking
the co-operation of local people in joint management of forests. The Government
of Andhra Pradesh has also issued orders for constituting village level forest
protection committees called Vana Samrakshana Samithies (VSS) for management
and protection of forest resources.
- About 6. 8 lakh Hectares of forest land is under Joint Forest Management in
the State.
Salient features of JFM:
- The Joint Forest Management(JFM) programme envisages constitution of Vana
Samrakshana Samithies(VSS) has certain rights, duties and responsibilities as
specified in JFM GO 173.
- Every household living in the hamlets / villages / cluster of villages, particularly
those depending on forest for the daily needs, would have the option of becoming
a Member of Samithi. However, all Scheduled Caste / Scheduled Tribe members
of the hamlets / villages / cluster of villages would become members of Samithi
automatically. Any two adult members could represent the household and out of
them one must be a woman.
- The members of VSS shall elect a 15 member Managing Committee out of which
atleast 5 members shall be women.
- The Members of VSS, individually and collectively shall be responsible to:
- ensure protection of forest against encroachment, grazing, fires and thefts
of forest produce
- carry out development of forests in accordance with the approved Joint Forest
Management Plan.
- make other villagers aware of the importance of forests.
- Members of VSS shall have the power to apprehend the forest offenders and
hand them over to the authorities concerned to take action under the provisions
of the relevant forest Acts and Rules. The members are entitled to 25% of the
"Compounding fees" collected from such offenders where the offence was committed
outside their JFM area as an incentive for the good work done by VSS.
- Along with trees for fuel, fodder and timber, the village community shall
be permitted to plant such fruit trees as would fit with the overall scheme
of afforestation, such as Amla, Imli, Mohua as well as shrubs, fodder legumes
and grasses which would meet local needs, help soil and water conservation and
enrich the degraded soil / land. Even local medicinal plants may be grown according
to the requirements and preference to beneficiaries.
- The Research & Development unit of the AP Forest Department has developed
grafts of high yielding varieties from the Minor Forest Produce(MFP) species.
The grafts are being used to plant in encroached areas for early returns. Impact
of JFM
- Due to protection and management of forest area through JFM the overall vegetation
cover and quality of the forests has improved as it is evident from the satellite
imagerie taken before and after formation of the VSS.
- Many VSS have been able to witness increased availability of fuel and fodder
within two years of taking up the Joint Forest Management programme in their
villages.
- The involvement of village community in forest management has greatly contributed
to the reduction in the incidences of smuggling, fire and grazing.
Returns for VSS Members
The members of the Vana Samrakshana Samithi(VSS) protecting the forests shall
be entitled to the following share from the forests:
- All Non-timber Forest Produce except those for which GCC holds the monopoly
rights. However the right to collection shall remain with the VSS members,
if they desire. The members shall be paid the collection charges upon delivery
of the produce as per the rates fixed by the Government.
- VSS members shall be entitled to 100% share in timber and bamboo harvested
from the regenerated degraded forests as prescribed in the approved Micro
Plan subject to the following conditions:
- Expenditure incurred on the harvesting shall be deducted from the total
income. However, the harvesting work will be got done by the members of the
VSS only as far as possible.
- Expenditure necessary to sustain the productivity of the forests like raising
plantations, carrying out other silvicultural operations and soil and moisture
conservation measures as per the micro plan shall be deducted from the total
income. This amount will be retained in the joint account of Vana Samrakshana
Samithies and the Forest Department for ploughing back in the forests under
the management of the Vana Samrakshana Samithies. Balance income shall be
equally apportioned among the members of Vana Samrakshana Samithies.
In 1999 the State Government has issued Orders providing for 50% of the Net
Revenue obtained from sale of Beedi Leaf collected from the VSS area to the
VSS - An amount of Rs. 5 to 7 Crores would thus be available to about 1600
VSS in the Telangana region every year, reducing their dependancy on Government
funding for implementing their microplans.
Unique features of JFM in Andhra Pradesh:
- People are given 100% rights over the forest produce, unlike many other
States where the sharing is limited to 25%.
- Transparency in VSS operations by channelising the funds through Joint Account
system.
- Involvement of Non Governmental Organizations in strengthening the Vana
Samrakshana Samithies through motivation, extension, training and other support
activities.
- Effective inter-departmental co-ordination for ensuring development of VSS
villages as "Model Villages". Issues to be monitored by Non-Governmental Organisations/Senior
Citizens/Public Representatives/Government Officials.
- To ensure that the Vana Samrakshana Samithi members will not take up any
agriculture crops on the forest land in the name of Joint Forest Management.
- To ensure that there is good co-ordination between forest department, other
Government Departments, NGOs and villagers in successful implementation of
the programme.
- To pursue with the District Administration to take up welfare programmes
complementary to JFM work in VSS villages.

State Trade in beedi leaves
Highlights Of The Beedi-Leaf Scheme:
- The Beedi-leaf scheme is being implemented in Telengana areas as a major
social welfare scheme for the villagers living in and around forest areas.
35 Crore Rupees is paid directly to the villagers as wages in the lean months
of April and May every year, creating an employment of nearly 80 lakh man-days.
In addition to this 500 lakh man-days are generated through beedi making industries
throughout the year.
- The Government vide G. O. Ms. No. 66 Environment Forests Science & Tehnology
(ForIII) Department dt. 4. 5. 1999 taken a major land mark policy change in sharing
50% of the net income obtained from Beedi-leaf collection with the VSS for
village and Forest Department. Out of total VSS of 2, 840 in Telangana area,
1504 VSSs were directly involved in collection of beedi-leaf. Out of a total
beedi leaf of 6. 39 lakhs of Standard Bags collected, the VSS collected 3. 45
lakhs of beedi-leaf which constituted 54% of beedi-leaf collected.
- As per the provision of G. O. Ms. No. 66 Environment Forests Science & Tehnology(For. III)
Dept. , dt. 4. 5. 1999, the VSS Members are likely to be benefited approximately
by 6 Crores.
Reasearch and Development
Forestry research in Andhra Pradesh has pioneered many innovative techniques
for improving the quality of seedlings produced. Many propagation methodologies
for different species have been standardised, some of them are:
Improved Nursery Technology:
Root Trainers help in producing physiologically stable and uniform planting
stock with root systems capable of inducing early and vigorous growth of seedlings
after outplanting by eliminating transportation and transplantation shock thereby
enhancing the survival percentage and productivity of plantations. The concept
of modern nursery using root trainers, organic potting medium, culling and clonal
technology has been successfully introduced in the state and being implemented
in 60 central nurseries.
High Yielding Eucalyptus Technology:
AP Forest Development Corporation(APFDC) is raising 8, 240 Hectares of Eucalyptus
plantations with high yielding clones. Selection of new candidate plus trees
and establishment of breeding base and clonal tests are under progress. Identified
and tested high yielding clones are being multiplied through vegetative propagation
and planting stock supplied for field planting including in Joint Forest Management
areas.
Improvement of Teak and Non-teak timber species and Casuarina:
Best phenotypes of Teak(Tectona grandis), Yegisa(Pterocarpus marsupium), Bandaru(Adina
Cordifolia), Gummadi teku(Gmelina arborea), Nallamaddi(Terminalia alata), Red
sanders, Rosewood, Chinduga(Albizia odoratissima), Sissoo(Dalbergia), Nalla
tumma(Acacia Nilotica) etc. have been identified and tests are under progress
to shortlist them for genetic superiority and release for large scale production
of improved planting stock for field planting.
Uniform growth, high yields and quick returns from the high yielding clonal
plantations will further motivate the VSS to make the JFM programme a big success
in Andhra Pradesh, which will also encourage the farmers to go for high
yielding clonal plantations and also practice agro-forestry methods.
Sustainable production of Non-Timber Forest Produce (NTFP):
Conservation of medical plants: Identification and Production of grafts of high
yielding clones of Chinta (Tamarind), Usiri (Amla / Emblica officinalis), Neredu(Syzygium
cumini), Seethaphal(Custard Apple), Velga(Wood-apple / Limonia elephantum),
Panasa (Jack-fruit / Artocartus Heterophyllus) is in progress in a big way by
establishing Clonal Multiplication Areas (CMA) in Research Stations as well
as Central nurseries. Raising of demonstration plots of about 1 Hectare is done
in selected VSS areas in the entire state during monsoon.
Highlights of Research:
As per the plans for 1995-2000, big expansion of field research stations and
assemblage of germplasm of a variety of forest tree species has been taken up.
First priority undertaken is to improve the quality of planting stock through
improved quality of seed, and improved nursery practices and clonal technology.
Lab to Land Success stories:
Experiments on culling of seedlings, root trainers and preparation of organic
potting medium and production of high yielding clonal planting stock have been
taken up on large scale and technology transferred to field for establishing
central nurseries. 60 such central nurseries have been established to produce
6 million high quality seedlings per year.
Research Activities in the targeted field:
Production of high yielding clonal plants of NTFP species such as Tamarind,
Amla, Jamun/ Neredu, Seetaphal, Eucalyptus and Casuarina has commenced bringing
a revolution in the clonal plantation technology in the forestry department.
330 Hectares(Ha) of seed production areas were developed besides establishing
91 Ha Of Clonal Seed Orchards. More than 701 Candidate Plus Trees of Timber,
Pulpwood and NTFP species have been identified. Statistically designed progeny
trial plots and multilocational clonal test plots have been established. More
than 700 officers and field staff have been trained on the improved nursery
and clonal technology in the Research Stations. About 3 lakh high yielding NTFP,
Eucalyptus and Casuarina clones were supplied from field research stations for
raising demonstration plots in the VSS areas during 1998 monsoon. Infrastructure
expanded in Research stations by adding civil works and procuring machinery
and equipment.
Proposed Main Activities under Research:
- Continue the tree improvement programme by expanding the breeding population
through recurrent selection with continued screening of new candidate plus
trees from wild population, testing and release.
- Evaluate new clones on Multilocational sites, shortlist the site specific
clones and release the high yielding clones for planting in the department
and to farmers.
- Supply source identified seed.
- Evaluate the impact of Joint Forest Management (JFM) and treatment practices
taken up for forest improvement.
