Abstract

The concept of Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) is highly relevant to the Indian context as it is a cost-effective option to cover large degraded forests rapidly. It envisages adopting a holistic view of greening that goes beyond tree planting in order to attain the goal of carbon sequestration and biodiversity enhancement through ecosystem restoration while at the same time developing the socio economic security of tribal communities. This paper details the implementation of an FLR initiative in three demonstration plots in Sheopur and Dindori, Madhya Pradesh which are the homes of the Sahariyas and Baigas tribes, with a focus on restoration and effective community engagement. Preliminary observations have produced promising results in terms of social engagement and financial income generated from the harvest. In addition soil and moisture conservation through the adoption of 400–500 saplings/ha indicate a rapid greening and significant carbon sequestration.

印度中央邦森林景观恢复的经验
森林景观恢复(FLR)的概念与印度的情况高度相关,因为它是快速覆盖大面积退化森林的一种经济有效的选择。它设想采用一种超越植树的整体绿化观点,以便通过恢复生态系统实现碳封存和增强生物多样性的目标,同时发展部落社区的社会经济安全。本文详细介绍了在中央邦的Sheopur和Dindori三个示范区实施FLR倡议的情况,这些示范区是撒哈拉人和baiga部落的家园,重点是恢复和有效的社区参与。在社会参与和从收获中产生的财政收入方面,初步观察产生了可喜的结果。此外,通过采用400-500棵树苗/公顷来保持土壤和水分,表明快速绿化和显著的碳固存。
