Forest and its resources have been tremendous importance to human. Forest is intimately linked to our culture and civilization. It has an important role in regions, states and nations. The economics of the regions are positively or negatively affected by this important resource. A relatively less developed district like Karbi Anglong in Assam is totally dependent on its forest resources. Forest is the backbone of its economy. The welfare of the population is directly or indirectly affected by the commercial exploitation of forest resources. The ethnic culture of the indigenous people reflects a close interaction with forest and the products it offers. The study is descriptive in nature and the primary data has been collected through field survey and direct personal interview.
