To fulfil the demands of paper and pulp industry, tropical pines were introduced on a large scale in the 1970s in India. For a certain period it marked a trend in Indian forestry. Under the Government of India Coordinated Tropical Pine Project many research activities were conducted and some large scale plantations were taken up. However, these were stopped after a controversy arose in Bastar where it was taken up after clearfelling a mixed sal forest.But in Orissa, tropical pine plantations were taken up on barren hills and it had positive effects on the environment. The present study shows that it is commercially viable, it does not have any negative effect on soil and it is not a matter of public resentment unlike that occurred in Bastar.Keywords

Along the coastal belt of Andhra Pradesh there are stretches of low scrub jungle of ever-green and semi-evergreen type. These lands have virtually remained 'idle' since long, serving only as inferior pastures for the rural community. Since 1970, cashew (Anacardium occidentale) is being raised on these soils, with the introduction of improved agronomic practices in an intensive programme of resource development The plantation technique including selection of parent material, selection of site, site preparation, nursery and plantation practice and manuring are described in the paper. The soil and water requirements, with tolerable ranges and toxicity limits are indicated. The mammoth programme of cashew cultivation by the Forest Department of Andhra Pradesh. in an effort to introduce commercial cropping is hoped to convert most 'idle lands' into blooming cashew orchards producing "DOLLAR FROM DUST".- A Note on the Expenditure Trends on Research at the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun

The relation between new culm production and the number of old culms was worked out for natural untreated forest of bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) and compared with the percentage of new culm production in bamboo forests under regular felling on a four year cycle. It was seen that production of new culms in the treated crop is about double that of the untreated crop. The observation is based on a single year's data and seems to indicate the wide difference in new culm production between a treated bamboo forest and an untreated one.- Extension Forestry
