Synopsis (short abstract) This study forms part of FAO’s programmes to strengthen forestry activities which directly benefit rural people in developing countries. The linkages through which rural people draw directly on forests and forest products take many forms, ranging from the use of forest land for shifting cultivation to small processing enterprises based upon raw materials from the forest. Some forest products, such as fuelwood, are essential to meeting people’s basic needs. In aggregate it is likely that alm ost all rural people in non-industrial countries depend on forests and trees for at least some of the inputs into their life systems.
