Madhya Pradesh is bestowed with a rich variety of minerals like Coal, Bauxite, Copper, Iron, Manganese and limestone. Mining activity contributes substantially to the economy of the state. Bauxite is exploited by open cast mines either by hand mining or machine mining. Good reserves of Bauxite are located in districts of Bilaspur, Mandla, Shahdol, Raigarh and Sarguja. Most of these areas carry sal forests. In Mandla district Bauxite mining is done by Balco using heavy machine in an area only 10 kms away from religious centre Amarkantak, source of river Narmada and Sone. Disturbed by the heavy mining operation and consequent deforestation and environmental pollution, Govt. of Madhya Pradesh sanctioned a Research Project for mine rehabilitation in the area. The present article describes the technique of reclaiming the area by afforestation. Trial plantations have been done from 1979 to 1981 over an area of 8 Ha and suitable species for this locality and site have been selected based on the experiments. Two Australian species Grevillea pleridifolia and Eucalyptus camaldulensis and some indigenous species like Chir pine, Sal and Karanj have come up well. Suggestions have been made to change the mining conditions to safeguard environmental hazards and undertake more rehabilitation measures.- Tropical Pines in Madhya Pradesh

Tropical Pines in Madhya Pradesh were first introduced in Amarkantak resion in 1968. Number of experiments were conducted at Amarkantak field station under State Forest Research Institute on nursery technique, choice of species, spacement, fertilizer applicatiOn etc. and technique of planting was standardized. Identification of suitable areas for raising tropical Pines in the State was done and small trial plantations were undertaken. Based on the field data of such trials, Madhya Pradesh State Forest Development Corporation submitted a Pine Plantation Project for Bastar which was financed by World Bank from 1-4-76. Tropical Pines have been raised over an area of 230 ha and 1356 ha under research trials and pilot plantations respectively in Bastar. Tentative conclusions have been drawn from a number of experiments. Tests have shown the suitability of tropical Pines for pulpwood. Growth data has confirmed the fast growth of species and its increased outtura per hectare has encouraged the prospects of a paper industry in the region.- Timber Markets of India

Coppice with reserves is a distinct silvicultural system and has proved most useful in managing the dry deciduous forests of Central Indian Region. It adequately meets the local demands of fuel, small-sized agricultural timber and some quantity of large-sized constructional wood. It preserves the locality factors and improves the general quality and extent of the growing stock.- A Young Centenarian
