The contribution of forest products to household income differs according to the household's socio-economic characteristics and institutional differences in the management of community forestry. The contribution of forest products to household income is higher in the case of forest management without formal forest users group (FUGs) than in the case of management under a formal forest management group. Furthermore, in terms of access to and dependence on forest resources, poorer households currently benefit less from the community forestry in Nepal.Less
