Abstract- Chhattisgarh is analyse policies, innovative
wood products, markets of wood energy, value-added
wood products and housing. Underlying the analysis is a
comprehensive collection of data. The Review highlights
the role of sustainable forest products in the international
markets, policies concerning forest and forest products
are broadly discussed, as well as the main drivers and
trends. It also analyses the general economic situation and
the general uncertainty on forest products markets in the
difficult economic environment.
Forest products markets are influenced by a large number
and wide variety of policies. Several policies directly affect
how wood is viewed as part of an emerging green
economy. These include trade policies such as illegal
logging regulations and trade-related agreements.
Renewable-energy policies, greenhouse gas reduction
targets, carbon accounting, and green-building policies
also affect wood markets.
The potential for the wider use of production centers in
Chhattisgarh may increase those impacts. Forest-
certification chemes often intersect with forest product
policies. These various policies may be viewed as an
opportunities or threats, placing the green credentials of
wood products under intense scrutiny. This gives the
forest sector the opportunity to adjust its practices so as to
reduce impacts and to improve its methods of monitoring
and reporting responsible behavior of production in
Chhattisgarh forest products.

1 INTRODUCTION
Forest animals also provide indirect benefits to humanity
in creating and maintaining the forest environment,
allowing it to provide the ecological services on which
human livelihood depends. The ecological roles animals
play include pollination, decomposition, seed dispersal,
seed predation, herbivore and predation. Through these
roles, animals influence such forest characteristics as
composition and structure of vegetation. They also
influence the reproductive success of plants, contribute to
soil fertility and serve as regulators of pest populations.
Chhattisgarh having 44 percent geographical area under
forest is very rich contains a mixture of tradable and non-
tradable goods. Tradable goods are either exportable or
substitutable (i.e., goods that a household can either
Export or can replace with imports). Non-tradable goods
are those produced and consumed solely within the house
hold. Non-tradable goods can be either normal (superior)
in that their consumption rises with household income, or
inferior in that their consumption declines with rising
household income the capacity of the forest to supply
goods depends on their abundance and replacement rate
households are economically rational, and seek higher
standards of living.
The community is small relative to the
extra-local market. Demand for the goods produced by the
community is unlimited relative to the capacity of the
community to supply them; thus goods exported by the
community will affect neither demand nor price. This
assumption does not hold for locally traded goods that
often suffer from boom and bust cycles associated with
over-supply and fickle demand When the value of a forest
and an agricultural good is the same, and the capacity to
increase production of both goods is equivalent,
households should opt for producing a surplus of forest
goods to trade, because part of the costs of extracting
goods from the forest commons is borne by the
community whereas all the costs of producing agricultural
goods are borne by the household. [Baker, R. P., and

These produce are used by rural communities as medicine,
and food. Moreover, the rural communities earn
substantial income especially during non-agriculture
season through the collection and sale of these produce.
Currently, trade in nationalized is organized and
controlled by the Chhattisgarh State Minor Forest Produce
