<span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial">In recent
years MAPs are increasingly recognized as source of significant livelihood
opportunities for the rural poor and revenue for the government. The gathering

communities, especially, primitive forest-dependent tribes, landless poor and
marginalized farmers.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial">Forest
produce also contribute to land productivity through the use of leaves as
biodegradable agricultural material for manuring and animal excreta especially
cow dung as manure. A large portion of the grazed fodder goes into the
productivity of land. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial"></span>
