Unfortunately, lacking scientific information of majority of the prioritized NTFPs is a ground reality, and those available are not accessible to needy entrepreneurs and general people as well. So there is growing need to compile, synthesis of information with primarily focus on economic aspect including ecology, conservation, product development and economic analysis of selected NTFPs.
