Forests play vital role in the socio-economic
development of the country in terms of productive, protective and bio-aesthetic
aspects. Forest and trees play unique role in the cultural and religious life
of the country. This besides supplying wide range of products and it also helps
to ameliorate soil and climate, improves water supply and control flood and
drought. Though there are few literatures and books are available, these must
be organized in the form of a text book for use by forestry graduates and also
by the practicing foresters. This book has been designed with 16 chapters which
covers the status of Indian forests, export, import of wood, demand and supply
of wood in India, Timber transit rules in India , EXIM policy for Wood and Wood
Products ,Wood based industries, Grading of timber Wood conversion, Wood
seasoning, Wood Preservation, Wood modification , Structural uses of timber
Composite wood , Wood adhesives and polymers , Wood energy , Use of
Nanotechnology in wood products, Production technology of Value added Products
from wood and its application. In a
holistic perspective, the information furnished in this book will definitely
act as ready reckoner for the faculty who teaches a course on Wood Products and
Utilization for Undergraduate and Post graduate students and also for the
students for writing competitive
examinations.
