It is a type of conservation technique in which a village committee called forest protection committee and the forest department enter into an agreement.
1-The villagers themselves take up the task of protecting forests from overgrazing, illegal harvesting, deforestation and forest fires. They also try to protect forested land from soil erosion.
2-In doing so, the villagers get a share of the revenue obtained from the sale of the timber products. Thus gaining an impetus to save forested land.
3-The villagers are free to use and harvest non timber forest products sustainably, keeping in mind the rejenuvation time of the resources.
4-It is an efficient method of saving forested areas from deforestation and soil erosion, as the locals are well acquainted with their surroundings and know their way around.
5-The villagers and locals are mostly dependent of forests for their survival. Leaving the responsibility of sustainable use on them, greatly increases their independency and reduces uneccessary depletion.
