10 ON TIPS NOTES Note making is a skill that we use in many walks of life : at school, university and in the world of work. However, accurate note making requires a thorough understanding of concepts. We, at Oswaal, have tried to encapsulate all the chapters from the given syllabus into the following ON TIPS NOTES. These notes will not only facilitate better understanding of concepts, but will also ensure that each and every concept is taken up and every chapter is covered in totality. So go ahead and use these to your advantage... go get the OSWAAL ADVANTAGE!! UNIT 1 : INDIA AND THE CONTEMPORARY WORLD - I CHAPTER 4 : Forest Society and Colonialism Quick Prompts RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FOREST AND LIVELIHOODS Forests give us a mixture of things to satisfy our different needs fuel, fodder, leaves, trees suitable for building ships or railways, trees that can provide hard wood. Forest products like roots, fruits, tubers, herbs are used for medicinal purposes, wood for agricultural implements like yokes, ploughs, etc. Forests provide shelter to animals and birds. They also add moisture to atmosphere. Rainfall is trapped in forest lands. Foresters and villagers had very different ideas of what a good forest should look like. The forest department wanted trees which were suitable for building ships or railways. They needed trees that could provide hard wood and were tall and straight. So particular species, like teak and sal, were promoted and others were cut. The new forest laws meant severe hardship for villagers across the country. After the Act (Forest Act), all their everyday practices, cutting wood for their houses, grazing their cattle, collecting fruits and roots, hunting and fishing became illegal. People were now forced to steal wood from the forests, and if they were caught they were at the mercy of the forest guards who would take bribes from them. Women who collected fuel wood were especially worried. It was also common for police constables and forest guards to harass people by demanding free food from them. Deforestation : Deforestation is cutting down of trees indiscriminately in a forest area. Under the colonial rule it became very systematic and extensive. WHY DEFORESTATION? As population increased over the centuries and the demand for food went up, peasants extended the boundaries of cultivation by clearing forests. The British encouraged the production of commercial crops like jute, sugar, wheat and cotton for their industries as raw material. The British thought that forests were unproductive land as they yielded no revenue nor agricultural produce. Cultivation was viewed as a sign of progress. Oak forests in England were disappearing. There was no timber supply for the shipbuilding industry. Forest resources of India were used to make ships for the Royal Navy. Spread of railways required two things : land to be cleared to lay railway tracks, wood as fuel for locomotives and for railway line sleepers. Large areas of natural forests were cleared for tea, coffee and rubber plantations. Thus, land was given to planters at cheap rates. CHANGES IN FOREST SOCIETIES UNDER COLONIALISM Shifting cultivators : Forest management had a great impact on shifting cultivators. In shifting cultivation parts of the forest are cut and burnt in rotation. European foresters regarded this practice as harmful for the forests. They felt that such land could not be used for growing trees for railway timber and was dangerous while being burnt as it could start a forest fire. This type of cultivation also made difficult for the government to calculate taxes. Nomadic and pastoralist communities : Nomadic and pastoralist communities were also affected by changes in forest management. Their traditional customary grazing rights were taken away and
