12 BEQUEST VALUE originated when people are willing to pay to conserve the benefits of protected area for the use of future generations. By doing so, these people do not have intention to use the benefits during their life span, but are bequesting those benefits for the future generations EXISTENCE VALUE: This generates when people are willing to pay for the pleasure they derive from knowing that the natural area or tiger or a particular species exists irrespective of any plan to visit such areas or other use the resources.

33 DNP provides goods and services to the society equivalent to Rs million per annum. (Assessment Year 2006) DNP contributes largely towards carbon sequestration(29.18%) followed by bequest value ( 27.31%) and other direct and indirect use value such as fodder & grazing (18.33%), fuel wood (12.53%), MFP (4.21%), recreation (4.01%) and ecological function(4.43%) of Total Economic Value. Direct Use value (Fuel Wood, MFP, Fodder & Recreation contributes around 39% Carbon Sequestration contributes around one third Value (29.23%). Bequest Value also contributes around one fourth (27.30%).

34 DNP contributes very little ( 2.78%) towards enhancing the agriculture productivity in adjoining fields to DNP that is counter mounded due to damage by wild animals DNP Contributes one third for direct value, one third for indirect value and one third for non-use value. HP Forest contributes around 61% monetary value for Soil and Water Conservation. It indicates that mountain ecosystem contributes largely towards soil and water conservation. (Verma 2000)

35 Gir Forests contributes around 30% towards enhancing agriculture productivity in the adjoining agriculture fields. The contribution of dry deciduous forests is maximum for enhancing agriculture productivity in the adjoining agriculture fields. (Pandya 2001) The Economic Value of Forest Ecosystem depends upon type of flora and fauna, and geography of the area. The economic value of Forest Ecosystem may be apply in same kind of areas. DNP contributes Rs million per annum to the society. The managers of DNP may project this contribution while submitting budgetary demand so that policy makers could be convinced to provide adequate financial allocation and other resources such as HR for the protection and preservation of this ecosystem.

36 India has 16 types of forest ecosystem. Study for each ecosystem may provide basis for contribution of forest ecosystem towards GDP. Policy makers may use the total economic value of forest ecosystem for taking administrative, legal and financial decisions for the improvement in the management, protection and conservation of biodiversity exists in DNP considering its economic benefit to the society.
