Description
Non-wood forest products (NWFPs) have been vitally important to forest-dwellers and rural communities for centuries. This publication is a product of the Food and Agriculture Organization's attention to this long-neglected area of forestry. It contains reports describing the status, management and importance of NWFPs in 11 Asian countries. This evaluation should be useful in supporting the efforts of foresters, conservationists and rural development workers in helping local communities increase their benefits from nearby forests. The following countries have been included in this study: Bangladesh; China; India; Indonesia; Malaysia; Nepal; Pakistan; Philippines; Sri Lanka; Thailand; Vietnam.
