Angul is one of the oldest Forest Divisions of Bihar and Orissa. Planting of teak started in Angul as far back as 1886, but the progress till about 1930 was not good. The earlier plantations were raised by transplants, but now for the past 20 years or so, only stump planting is being done. Spacing has also undergone various changes. Originally it was 6' × 6', now it is 8½' × 8½'. All the stumps are raised in the dry rob nurseries. In the 1st year plantation 3 weedings are done, during the 2nd year two. Climber cutting is necessary in the plantations for about 20 years. The result has been very promising. Till now over 1600 acres are under regular teak plantation and the quality classes obtained according to all India standards is I to III.- Timber and Firewood for Rural Uses

A large majority of the Indian population live in villages with agriculture as the principal occupation. Their requirements of timber and firewood for various purposes have been assessed. They need annually about 65 million cubic feet of round timber, and 5300 million cubic feet of firewood. The rural population are now using only 2,000 million cubic feet of firewood. Cowdung and agricultural wastes equivalent to 3,300 million cubic feet of firewood are being burnt by them. Some suggestions as how best to meet the requirement have been given.- Trial of Cocoa in Orissa
