The forest department had long been working with the forest dwellers through the Tangiya system of cultivation under which the agriculture crops were raised along with the forest plantations for a few years as an experiment. This type of collective endeavor in protection and management of forests through people's involvement was later termed as Joint Forest Management. The JFM approach optimizes the returns, minimizes conflicts and links the forestry development works with overall development of the land based resources. It also aims at acquiring technical and managerial capability available at the grass root level. On operational parameters, JFM is a concept of developing partnership between forest department and fringe forest user groups on the basis of jointly defined roles and responsibilities. This study covered physical enumeration survey (all florae) in forest areas of some selected JFMCs of South Gujarat to know floral diversity with the ecological (Total No. of individuals, density, abundance and frequency) and economical (Timber and NWFP status of species) parameters of those areas which shell be very helpful for the development and management of the natural resources.
