Socio-economic impact of Pomra community forestry project [Bangladesh]
1987
Rahman, A. (Forest Research Inst., Chittagong (Bangladesh). Forest Economics Div.)
A community Forestry Project was initiated in 1980 in the Protected Forest land at Pomra in the district of Chittagong. So far, 126 landless families have been rehabilitated in 24 groups in the project area by allotting 1.62 ha of denuded hills to each family. Most of the families took loans from the Bangladesh Krishi Bank for procuring inputs with the help of the Forest Department to amounts ranging from Tk. 1,000 to Tk. 4,000. The paper discusses the state of development of horticultural and forest plantations in these plots, and the improvement of the standard of living and socio-economic status of these families. The cropping pattern, input-output ratio, Land Expectation Value and employment intensity have been reported on the basis of a survey conducted on 24 families out of 126.
