There is a large potential for reforestation under JFM in India. CDM provides opportunity to expand JFM in India. JFM is shown in this paper as an eligible activity for CDM, if it is in non-forest area. The issues such as developing a baseline, demonstrating additionality, measuring and monitoring of carbon benefits and non-permanence can be easily addressed for a JFM project. India should create the necessary institutional arrangements, which are simple and transparent to attract CDM projects.

Abstract


There is a large potential for reforestation under JFM in India. CDM provides opportunity to expand JFM in India. JFM is shown in this paper as an eligible activity for CDM, if it is in non-forest area. The issues such as developing a baseline, demonstrating additionality, measuring and monitoring of carbon benefits and non-permanence can be easily addressed for a JFM project. India should create the necessary institutional arrangements, which are simple and transparent to attract CDM projects.
