Telangana - Silviculture of Species
Check for tree information under Telangana Silviculture Policy Program
http://forests.telangana.gov.in/pages/SilvicultureSpecies.aspx
http://forests.telangana.gov.in/pages/SilvicultureSpecies.aspx
Telangana ku Harita Haram
Goal
- National Forest Policy envisages to have a minimum of 33% of the total geographical area under forest / tree cover to maintain environmental stability and ecological balance which are vital for sustenance of all life-forms, human, animal and plants.
- In Telangana State, forest area is 25.16% of the total geographical area.
- The State Government has initiated a flagship programme, “Telangana Ku Haritha Haram” for taking massive afforestation activities to increase the green cover of the state to the desired level of 33% of the total geographical area.
Strategy
The goal of 33% tree cover, is sought to be achieved by:
- Protecting and rejuvenating the existing forests.
- Taking massive plantation programme outside forest areas under Social Forestry people's Movement.
Initiatives in Forest Areas
The major thrust in forest areas will be given to:
- Forest Protection – against smuggling, fire, encroachment, grazing, poaching etc.
- Afforestation – Raising plantation in blank and open forests.
- Rejuvenating degraded forests by coppicing, singling and other silvicultural interventions.
- Taking large scale Soil and Moisture Conservation works.
- Encouraging plantation activities in RoFR areas.
Initiatives outside Forest Areas
The major thrust outside forest areas will be for raising:
- Avenue plantation – Preferably in multiple rows – along the National and State Highways apart from Rural roads.
- Institutional plantations – All government and private institutions to be covered.
- Barren Hill afforestation.
- Tank foreshore plantations.
- River bank and rivulets plantations.
- Homestead & Industrial areas.
- Agro forestry – farmers should be encouraged to adopt various models of agro forestry for increased income levels and economic security.
- Creation of Smrithi vanams.
- Planting in Urban Residential colonies.
Action Plan for 3 years : Rs 800 Crores per Year Outlay:
- Target : 230 Crore plants
- Forest Areas : 100 Crore Plants
- Non Forest Areas: 120 Crore Plants
- HMDA : 10 Crore Plants
- (40 lakh Seedlings per Assembly Consitutency)
A detailed exercise for identification of nurseries and the sites available for raising plantations have been undertaken:
- 3300 number of nurseries for raising 41.00 Crore (approx.) seedlings for 2015 planting has been identified in the state.
- Nurseries will be raised by various agencies involved, Forest Department, DWMA, Agriculture, Horticulture, Tribal Welfare etc.
- Further, action is being taken by the implementing agencies for procurement of polythene bags and seeds for grounding the nurseries.
