About the product

Focusing on the problems of meeting the growing need for timber, fodder and fuel in arid and semi-arid lands, this publication offers a striking contrast between the situations in India and Kenya. It presents a background on each country including a discussion on their policy, strategy and organization; resources and needs; forestry projects; and overcoming the major obstacles to tree planting. It then goes on to compare and contrast the two countries programmes in terms of environmental and technical factors, institutional factors, and social and economic factors.
