Dhorpatan. Reshma Nihuro and Amriso of Kathekhola Rural Municipality-7 of Baglung have been cultivated to connect the community forest with production. The ward office and locals have planted bushes in three community forests and planted nihuro and amriso in about 300 ropanis of land.
According to ward chair Prem Lamichhane, farming has been started in 300 ropanis of land in Titejhari, Makuka and Sanghukhola community forests. He also said that he plans to gradually cultivate in other community forests. Lamichhane said that the cultivation started three years ago in 12 ropanis has now been successful in spreading it to 300 ropanis.
So far, rs 300,000 has been invested in this purpose by donating public labour to the ward office and locals. At present, there is not much expenditure on the plants as the plants of Nihuro and Amriso are being produced in the village. Ward chair Lamichhane said that although there was no nihuro and amriso in resh village earlier, now every farmer has started cultivating it even in the kanla of the field.
“Earlier, there used to be more people in the village, there used to be more livestock, now there are fewer people in the village due to migration, they do not keep the same things as before, due to which the bushes grew in the forest,” he said. We have started this work so that we can connect the forest with income. ‘
Dhan Bahadur GC, a local, said that if the production of nihuro and amriso is increased, it will grow in the community forest. He said that the demand and price of nihuro and amriso used as vegetables are also good, so it can also be exported to big cities. Gc believes that the risk of wildlife attack has also been reduced after planting small plants by tearing the bushes.
Ujeli Sharma of Kathekhola-7 said that she has expanded her farming by collecting saplings from the community forest of the village. “Earlier, we used to go to far away forests to look for a bow, but now we have started finding it in the nearby community forest. We are all excited to plant useful items in place of useless bushes. We hope we can earn a living from here by selling as the production increases,” she said.
