| Summary, etc. | The community forestry program has received the highest priority in the forestry sector in Nepal. Thousands of state controlled forest patches have been handed over to the local forest users for their protection, development and utilization. The program has emerged to embrace broader participatory forest management and rural development issues and is being the most popular and successful program in the country. But there are very limited studies available to measure the degree of effectiveness of the program based on the analysis of its economic contribution. Most of the studies undertaken in community forestry are confined in the hilly districts with no or little efforts towards the Terai and Inner Terai region of Nepal. Furthermore, the available literatures provide conflicting and inconsistent results. One of the main problems is now to assess the level of benefits received by the user group members from community forests in different region of the country and to identify the management measures needed for maximization of benefits from community forests ensuring its' long-term sustainability. This study is an attempt made to assess the economic contribution of community forestry in Inner Terai districts of Nepal. It presents a case from Chitawan District in the Central Development Region, where the study was undertaken in three forest user groups. The main objectives were to find out the present harvest level of forest products; the growing stock and the sustainable yield/allowable harvest; to assess the economic contribution of community forests at the household level and to analyze the FUGs' institutional and managerial status and the possible measures of benefit enhancement from community forests. Both the qualitative and quantitative information are taken as the basis for this study. Household survey, forest inventory, reviews of users' constitutions and operational plans, interview with members of forest user committees, informal discussion with key informants and CF stakeholders, review of FUGs' records, local market survey and participatory resource assessment are the main methods used to collect information needed for this study. The data are analyzed using SPSS and MS-Excel to draw the results of the study. The study indicates that the users are harvesting less forest products compared to the actual allowable harvest. Despite this, the community forest is providing substantially positive contribution to the household economy of the FUG members. This study specify that the net economic contribution would be positive even if there is substantial increase in costs and decrease in forest products. The study has outlined that the institutional and managerial capability building of forest user groups and the mobilization of available resources would further enhance the economic contribution to the users household economy. |
