Forests have been a significant part of the Indian economy since ancient days. They have been considered essential for economic development in as much as, besides bestowing many geographical advantages, they provide basic materials for building, furniture and various industries. The most important forest products are wood and timber which have been used by the mankind to fulfil his various needs¡ªdomestic, agricultural and industrial.
Different kinds of trees (e.g., the Bakula tree) provided firewood and timber. The latter was used for furniture, building materials, enclosures, staircases, pillars, agricultural purposes, e. g. for making ploughs, transportation e. g. for making carts, chariots, boats, ships, and for various industrial needs. Va?a-kamma was an occupation dealing in wood and in various otherforest products. I?g¨¡la-kamma was another occupation which was concerned with preparing charcoal from firewood.
