Due stress should be given to promote function illiteracy especially to the poor and weaker section of the society. Forest extension agency should extend its support to create awareness and to motivate the rural people to adopt agroforestry practices. Forest department in collaboration with the NGO's and other suitable organization should arrange short term training programmes for the rural people to gain technical competencies. Government should provide incentive and subsidy to the participants of agroforestry pra- -ctices. Entrepreneurship development programme (EDP's) should be encouraged by selecting the young entrepreneurs who can shoulder more responsibilities and excel in the field of endeavour. Establishment of private nurseries should be promoted so as to meet the demands of suitable and healthy plants/ seedlings at reasonable price and at optimum time of planting. Farmers should be trained adequately in terms of plant protection, management and their after care. Proper marketing infrastructures should be developed in the locality, so that the participants should be able to get requisite benefits in time. Forestry/ agroforestry education should be promoted at school, college and university levels. A compulsory exercise/ project in nursery rising should be incorporated in course curriculum and the participating students should be given their share of benefits
