One such example is of West Bengal. In a forest of West Bengal, The Sal Forest were badly degraded. A forest officer involved villagers in the protection of forest and gave them employment in silviculture and harvesting operations. Villagers collected firewood and fodder at a nominal pay. Within 10 years the previously worthless forest became valuable.
