The manual consists of seven chapters. The First one gives a brief profile of climate, people inhabiting and other physical features. In the Second chapter, the salient features of NREGA, 2005 have been mentioned to benefit its end users. The Third chapter deals with the Nursery Technology, i.e. how seedlings of the forest trees can be raised by the people under this scheme. The detailed process of raising a plantation has been explained in Fourth chapter. The various methods of soil and water conservation, which can be taken up under NREGA have been described in Fifth chapter. The Sixth chapter deals with the convergence of others activities with NREGA. The last/Seventh chapter deals with the Schedule of Rates (SOR) for carrying out these works.
