Biodiversity conservation history of Satpura hills
Balendra Pratap Singh, Ravi Upadhyaya and Nikhil Kanungo
There are only tribal villages in the Satpura plains whose contribution often depends on plants and animals such as Neemghan (Azadirachta indica), Bariyam (Mangifera indica), Rorighat (Malotus filipensis), Badkachar (Ficus bengalensis), Kanjighat (Pongamia pinnata), Churna (Ziziphus rugosa), Raikheda (Brassica juncea), Anjandhana (Hardwickia binata), Bagdev (Panthra tigers), Reechgarh (Ursus thibetanus), Sita Dongri (Lygodium flexuosum). The tribals here make their living from the materials obtained from the plants found around their residence and protect them.
