DESCRIPTION
In the present book the extent of the marginal lands, techniques, practices, participation of different agencies have been dealt in detail. In the eleventh chapter brief knowhow about the silviculture of 23 trees species has been given. The book has been written in very simple and lucid language to avoid complexities. In writing this book, author had to digout a vast literature available in Indian context and he tried to coincide with his experience of afforestation. There is a great need for a shift in cropping pattern in India particularly from agriculture to silviculture in marginal lands and the lands not suited to intensive agriculture.
