Plantation forestry is an age old practice as people use to plant trees on their farm lands and near their houses. There were tree festivals like Shalbhangika Vanmahotsava in Gupta period. However the expanse of these plantations were less. With the advent of industrialization expanding population base and degradation of forest there is an urgent need to establish large scale plantations which on one hand fulfill the need of industries fuel fodder and timber requirement of people and on the other provide economic and environmental safety. In India generally degraded lands are spared for forest related activities. These degraded lands suffers from different problems like less soil depth grazing pressure poor nutrient may be saline alkaline inaccessibility undulating rocky so on. Establishing trees on these lands is a challenging task and requires skill and planning. In light of failure of many plantation programs in past it is imperative that the manpower is trained for plantation programs to achieve good results in field. This prompted the authors to bring out this manuscript which can help as a guide to foresters researchers and students. The book would be of interest to those who are concerned with land use in forest and soil conservation agriculture and forest colleges and universities. There are total eight chapters chapter first introduces plantation forestry as a science and spells the need and origin of large scale plantation.
