A large number of tribal people and other forest dwellers derive their source of livelihood from the collection and marketing of Minor Forest Produce (MFP) which provides them essential food, nutritional, medicinal needs and cash income also. As the business of MFP is different from the traditional ones, it denies due benefits. While government supported Corporations and Federations trade in some MFPs, a large number of these are traded freely in the market which is also not very helpful to the gatherers as MFP production is highly dispersed spatially and because of the poor accessibility of these areas, a competitive market does not exist. As a strategic interventions to ensure fair returns for the MFPs to the gatherers/collectors, the Government has come up with a new scheme of Mechanism for Marketing of Minor Forest Produce (MFP) through Minimum Support Price (MSP) and Development of Value Chain for MFP.

Through the MyGov Platform, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs, seeks suggestions/information from all section of the society regarding innovative ideas for value addition to the MFPs, processing and marketing of MFPs, traditional skill and skill development, etc.

Modiji First of all start schools and primary health centre in tribal settlement areas without calculating profit from it and sufficient staff and continuous monitoring system to check whether these facilities are receiving the eligible ones. Make provisions for supplying food materials per week for all and the quality of food supplied should be checked.

Tribes can generate natural products free from poison and pesticides. We should create a special BRAND NAME for those products so that they can be marketed all over the world. And if Modi ji promotes it through media, within one month this problem will be solved for ever!

Modi sirji, I am belongs to small forest area called Palakondalu, where Red Sandalwood trees were naturally grown at top of the hills. We are near by farming families suffering lack of education and jobs, most of the population went to Gulf for labour work. Smugulars or illegally cutting red sandals trees and selling in international market for Rs 10 crore per ton. We are suffering from lack of rains and no industries. But our native place wealth is looting by few people. Please do justice

Co operative organizations involving tribal people of that area and agriculturists should be formed for the procurement and processing of forest produces and those things should be converted into value added products. A research establishment is to be formed for the invention of new products.This will help the tribal people to get more benefit for their toil.

वनवासियों को जड़ी बूटियों की खेती (कम पानी वाली ) के लिए प्रोत्साहित कराकर आयुष के क्षेत्र मे आगे किया जा सकता है , इससे उनकी आय मे काफी इजाफा होगा ।एवं अच्छी गुणवत्ता की जड़ी बूटी प्राप्त होगी ।

पलाश के पत्तों के दोने एवं पत्तल का उत्पादन जंगलों मे कराकर (जोकि प्लास्टिक का एक बेहतर विकल्प है )उसे सहकारी दुकानों पर बाज़ारों मे बिकवा कर काफी रोजगार पैदा होगा ।

चिरौंजी जोकि एक जंगली वृक्ष से पैदा होता है , उसके पेड़ जंगलों से विलुप्त होते जा रहे हैं । चिरौंजी के पेड़ों को संरक्षित करके वनवासियों को बड़ा आय का श्रोत प्रदान किया जा सकता है । 2- कत्था के पेड़ों को लगवा कर तथा कत्था उत्पादन की इकाइयों को जंगलों मे स्थापित कराकर जंगल एवं वनवासी दोनों का ही कल्याण होगा । 3- लाख आधारित इकाइयों को जंगलों मे स्थापित कराना । 4- रेशम उत्पादन को बढ़ावा देना ।
