Such provision has encouraged the users to carry out the activity related to forest improvement. The policy of handing over is one of the major factors for motivating people towards community forestry. The policy has played vital role in improving the forest condition in the name of ban godne, which is a major activity for improving the forest condition. It is worthwhile to invest resources and time for handing over the forest. The preliminary observation indicates that the collective approach in ban godne may not last for long time once the forest gets mature and harvestable stage, particularly timber.
Timber harvesting is considered as a risky work.
The users do not show their interest to involve in the risky work unless they see any economic incentives. An economic incentive is necessary for taking part in such type of work. Emerging of the labor-paid and contractor systems in community forests is an indication of ineffectiveness of collective system. Therefore, there is a need of conducting detail study in collective approach, particularly what works well in collective decision for effective management. Equal share or equity is a big issue in community forestry.
