RESUMO
The study deals with the “Assessment of Plant biodiversity of Innerline Reserve Forest, Hailakandi (Assam)” India. that was carried out in six sites. A total of 54 species of trees belonging to 32 families with 2,303 individuals, 17 species of shrubs belonging to 13 families with 2,195 individuals and 27 species of grasses and herbs belonging to 13 families with a total of 1,595 individuals were encountered. Quadrate size of 400 m2 for trees, 100 m2 for shrubs, 20 m2 grasses and herbs. Compared to all the six sites, Site-III shows the highest Basal area (243.67 m2). In terms of IVI, Tectona grandis was found to be the most dominant tree species, Clerodendrum infortunatum was found to be the most dominant shrub species and Oplismenus compositus was found to be the most dominant grasses and herb species. In aspects for all the sites it can be concluded that Site-III showed the highest value for Shannon-Weiner Diversity Index (H?) (3.2) for trees species, Site-V showed the highest value for Shannon- Weiner Diversity Index (H?) (2.27) for shrubs species and Site-III showed the highest value for Shannon- Weiner Diversity Index (H?) (2.32) for grass & herb species.
RESUMO
The study investigated that the Socioeconomic status and use of an agroforestry system, 20 farmers from one district, four blocks, and four villages per block were randomly selected. The socioeconomic condition of the agroforestry system in the Azamgarh districts of Uttar Pradesh is based on preliminary study. According to the size of their holdings, the respondents were divided into Palhani, Bilariyaganj, Mehnagar, and Jahanaganj block farmers, and observations were made about their socioeconomic profiles. Farmers ranged in age from middle-aged to elderly; the majority had completed middle school, whereas large farmers were more likely to have completed high school; most of them were nuclear families with semi-cemented or cemented homes and had more than 10 years of expertise in agriculture and agroforestry. Their family sizes ranged from medium to big, or over 5 individuals. In the three categories of farmers, the risk orientation ranged from low to medium; the scientific orientation was of a medium degree. The large farmers were found to be more exposed to the media, and most farmers were found to attend group meetings. Smallholder farmers, especially in developing nations, contribute significantly to local, regional, and economies as a result of socioeconomic and environmental constraints. About 75% of the world's agricultural land is used by smallholders.
