摘要:The present article focuses on the various disturbance agents such as fire, grazing and browsing, over-exploitation of resources, dam constructions, road constructions etc., affecting the growth of Anogeissus latifolia in the Srinagar valley of Uttarakhand. A. latifolia is the prominent tree species of this valley and is an important source of fuel, fodder, timber and other basic uses for the local villagers. The inevitable pressure on the A. latifolia is leading to severe destruction of the species and may create the scarcity of that species in the near future. Therefore, joint efforts need to be implemented by the local villagers with government agencies for conservation and sustainable use of A. latifolia. The government may also take a initiative by allotting demarcated forests areas to the villagers as village forest, thus motivating the villagers to take special care for its protection and rehabilitation and for a sustainable output.
