Assuming the importance of Papilionaceous plants in improving the habitat conditions in the highly degraded vegetations attempt has been made to record such plants growing naturally ill semiarid and chiefly red-lateritic soils of Sambalpur District of Orissa. As much as 62 such species has been recored growing naturally in this tract. The phenology of the plants along with its nodulation has also been collected. Introduction of these plants in the plantation of tree species will improve the habitat conditions gradually and thus the valuable germplasm of the important taxa will be conserved.- A Note on Trial of Stylosanthes in Laterites Wastes of South West Bengal

In West Bengal 34.48% of the forest area is protected area covering National Parks, Sanctuaries, Tiger Reserves etc. There are 16 different forest types in the State which has been identified as per Champion and Seth's classification and maintained as Preservation Plots. Participative method afforest Management has been taken as tool for maintenance of biodiversity on the basis of experience of Arshari experiment. The survey and evaluation method to study biodiversity has been developed. Analogous model of plantation forestry is prescribed for conservation of maximum number of species.- Proximate Composition and Polyphenol Content of Some Tree Leaves

Silvo-pasture practice is carried out in laterite tracts of South West Bengal. Adoption of this practice helps in increasing yield of fodder in the pinch period of the year as well as helps in soil and water conservation. Among the various fodder species tried Stylogenthus guinansis CV Schofield has shown promise to its maximum extent. Though practice is showing promise but the farmers in most of the areas are not interested for cut and carry method of feeding in view of maintenance of low productive cows. So, the reduction of unproductive cows and maintenance of high yielding cattle will facilitate the adoption of stall feeding and the practice of silvo-pasture will be popular.Full Text

Tree growing has become accepted landuse practice in South-Western districts of West Bengal. In other parts forestry activity is limited to planting tree as a complementary crop within the overall farming system. Though planting activity has progressed but the management of plantations is yet to catch up with the progress of afforestation. There is scope for improvement of productivity of plantations. The need of technological research for increasing productivity of forests, sociological research to evolve strategles for meaningful people's participation, farmer's training for adoption of scientifiC practice and opening of result demonstration plots for learning by seeing has been advocated.- Improvement of Germinability of Eucalyptus Species by Pregermination Treatments

Agro-forestry in the form of Taungya is practiced in West Bengal since sixties of last century. With the changing situation, the practice once developed to raise the plantation economically in the forest areas has became one of the important tool for rural development. Some research works have beeD carried out to pvolve optimum spacing, crop combination, three tier cropping system, sequential cropping, mechanisation etc. An account of the same is given in the present paper. Presently large scale inter-cultivation is being carried out in forest areas to generate employment and production. In non-forest areas, where there is no tradition of agro-forestry people are being motivated to grow trees in their non-irrigated land in combination with intercrops.- Trial of Cordia alliodora Provenances in North Bengal

Soaking of bamboo seeds (Dendrocalamus Strictus L.) in water or a dilute solution of disodium hydrogen phosphate (l0-1M) for 6 hr, followed in either case by drying back, greatly reduced their deterioration under accelerated ageing at 92% RH and 40°C for 5 days. Hydration by moisture equilibration with a water saturated atmosphere for 48 hr followed by drying also slowed down the loss of vigour and viability of seeds. Soaking-drying treatment was, however, more effective than the moisture equilibration-drying treatment. Although the soaking-drying treatment with low concentratlon of disodium hydrogen phosphate (10-4M) proved better than water (SD) for maintaining vigour and viabilily, GA treatment showed better seedling growth (not germination percentage) than the other treatments. Kinetin and ethephon adversely affected post-storage germinability.- A Note on Prospects of Picea spinulosa (Griff), Henry (Sikkim Spruce) in Darjeeling Hills

Trials were undertaken to study the ischolar_mainability of seedling cuttings of Tsuga dumosa D. Don, Cupressus rorulosa D. Don, Cupressus lusitanica Mill, Pinus patulu Schl. and Cham, Abies densa D. don. All the species tried gave 80-100 per cent ischolar_maining. Production of planting material by seedling cutting is much cheaper. The method is also very useful in multiplication of planting material quickly from limited stock.- Vegetative Propagation of Forest Trees

Trial was undertaken to find out the effect of auxins and (noo-auxinic) phenolic compounds on ischolar_maining of hitherto difficult to ischolar_main material and easier materials. The results of the initial trial indicates the promising effect of auxin and non- auxinic chemicals. The effect of parahydroxy benxoic acid and indole-butyric acid is favourable to Populus gamblei, Dode, and Cryptomeria jrponica (L.f) Don. Further study is in progress to find at optimum concentration for each species.- Observation on Phoenix sylvestris Plantation

Tavngya plantation in North Bengal is an age-old practice. It has two principal aspects, (i) a dependable planting technique and (ii) readily available and dependable labour force from the conventional forest villages. As the pace of conversion of high forest into plantation has increased considerably, maintenance of the conventional forest villages in usual pattern has become uneconomic. Hence the conventional forest villages cannot be retained for a length of time. In future, forest workers may be drawn from a different kind of forest villages. There is also a visible drift of rural population towards urban areas due to more covetable employment in the various industries. Large scale harvesting depending primarily on manual labour is no longer possible because of the large areas under operation. The obvious course is to go over to mechanisation in the different stages of forestry operations and with this end in view, certain works are being done by tractors and various implements. The aim is to harvest economically and quickly, and to carry out subsequent ploughing of the land for taungya plantation. This paper is a brief study of the economics of mechanised harvesting and is based on the actual working for the last one year- Intercropping Trials with Turmeric in North Bengal

Interesting results have been obtained from trials of intercropping with Turmeric in North Bengal. Turmeric is a very successful intercrop which can be grown in 2 year and older plantations. As a result of this cultivation substantial income is obtained and growth of the forest crop improves considerably. Detail studies about Turmeric and other intercrops are in progress.- Preliminary Study on Rooting of Green Wood Cutting of Teak

A trial was undertaken to study the relation between age and ischolar_maining of Cupressus cashmiriana Royle, and Cryptomeria japonica Don. The definite effect of age of the shoot on ischolar_mainability in both the species was notices. In case of Cupressus best result was obtained from the cutting of juvenile seedlings and in case of Cryptomeria from the cuttings of young shoots of mature trees.- Challenges of Professional Forestry Education - A Thought

Gradually holistic management of forests being aimed to obtain tangible and intangible benefits the forest communities and other stakeholders are being involved for sustainable management of forests. Already the process has been initiated but there are successes and failures and there is need for research inputs. So suggestion has been made to include certain subjects/topics in the curriculum and also need to carryout researches to provide appropriate inputs for training by the various universities, institutes carrying researches and running academic courses and also input from the success stories and best practices from the field to carry out the challenging task of conservation.Keywords
