Forest certification scheme launched, origin of tree-based products can be checked by green-conscious consumers

IndiaTimes Sunday, 7 January 2024
India's environment ministry launches the Indian Forest & Wood Certification Scheme, which aims to promote sustainable forest management and agroforestry practices. The scheme provides an environmental label that informs consumers about the origin and source of forest and tree-based products. It allays concerns over deforestation and illicit timber trade through certification, boosting the export potential of India's wood-based products. Certification is available to farmers, institutions, and industries involved in agroforestry and the wood value chain.
