Tropical silviculture : new imperatives : new systems
Material type:
TextPublication details: Dehradun International 2003Description: 137pISBN: 8170893003Subject(s): Silvicultural systems | Tropics | Forests and forestry DDC classification: 634.95 Summary: Forest Management is multi-dimensional. The list of dimensions begins with 'ecological', and, perhaps, ends with political'. In various contexts, one or the other dimension assumes greater importance. Nevertheless, the silvicultural dimension remains a key dimension in any context. In the last few decades, there have been rapid changes in imperatives in forest management. If timber production was the primary object in forest management in nineteen-forties, biodiversity conservation is the main concern in nineteen-nineties. Unfortunately despite regular debate, the silviculture systems have not changed with the changing objectives. The work is an attempt to initiate for the new systems. The author's experience is limited to tropics, so are the discussions in the work.
