Comparative evaluation of Celtis africana in Lesotho with that in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.Ts'ehlana, Moses Ts'eliso. January 2005 (has links)
Research was conducted in three study sites in Lesotho, and the fourth, which was used
on comparative basis, was in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
The study was suitable for Lesotho as it is a small country with very limited natural
resources. Lesotho's weak economy, exacerbated by the increasing population, needs
concerted efforts to redress its socio-economic problems. This study is one of such efforts
to explore the potentials of the indigenous forests with the aim of addressing wood
demands. Celtis africana is one of the species with a proven record in Lesotho to have
been a well adapted, resourceful timber tree in the past. Over-exploitation has
degenerated it to its brink of extinction. It is against this background that this research
was conducted with the aim of restoring Celtis africana to its original status in Lesotho.
The results revealed that due to climatic conditions, seeds from Kwazulu-Natal are
heavier than those from localities in Lesotho. However, wood densities from study sites
in Lesotho are higher than those of KwaZulu-Natal. Pre-treatment method of manual
scarification showed the best outcomes in terms of germination percent and vigour while
the control was the last. The diverse nature of Celtis africana allows it to survive and
prosper in a wide and varying range of habitats. Its pliable and adaptive characters are
manifested by its ability to adapt in novel environments. Under ideal warm and moist
conditions Celtis africana keeps its foliage all the year round, but in dry or abnormally
cold years it becomes a deciduous tree. Though it is distributed in a variety of habitats,
Celtis africana prefers moist habitats. It also demonstrates greater "affinities" for the
carbonates in the soils, in particular, calcium carbonate (CaC03) and dolomite
(CaMgC03).
More research and determined reforestation programmes are required in order to improve
the status of Celtis africana in Lesotho. Its natural existence in Lesotho can curtail
expense of provenance identification. Both extension strategies and silvicultural
operations, which can assist in tree improvement, should be adopted. Social benefits
which, are rendered by Celtis africana in South Africa, can be emulated and adopted in
Lesotho. Other than being an admired and valuable recreational tree (planted in parks and
in the homesteads), it is a protected tree in South Africa. / Thesis (M.Sc.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2005.

The development potential and impacts of commercial eucalyptus woodlots in selected areas of KwaZulu, South Africa.Cellier, Guy Anthony. 01 October 2014 (has links)
This thesis is an analysis of the social, economic and ecological impacts of commercial Eucalyptus woodlots beign promoted by a private timber company in certain parts of northern KwaZulu, South Africa. The impacts are considered from the perspective of the rural farmers themselves via a qualitative methodology consisting of semi-structured, in-depth individual interviews and focus group discussions. The results of the study show that these woodlots would offer only supplementary income to the majority of the growers. There is little opportunity cost in terms of land or labour, and ecological impacts can be minimised through a programme of education and responsibility on behalf of the company. However, the growers involved feel alienated from the whole tree-growing process occurring on their land. The potential for rural development and empowerment does exist, but will require a fundamental paradigm shift and long-term commitment on the part of the company promoting the woodlots. Commercial woodlots have an important role to play in the 'new' South Africa by showing that the aspirations of the rural poor need not be compatible with the profit-orientated motives of private companies. A model is proposed which consists of training, strengthening existing institutional structures, and initiating ongoing, on-farm research. Following such a model would allow commercial woodlots to form part of an appropriate social forestry land-use system for the region. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 1994.

Invisible again : women and social forestry in BangladeshHalim, Sadeka. January 1999 (has links)
Social forestry is a participatory approach to managing forest resources that attempts to reconcile a range of ecological, commercial and social objectives. Its emergence in the last decade signals a recognition of the failure of development programmes imposed by government directive and of the need for forests to support increasingly impoverished local populations while supplying timber for international markets. Social forestry in Bangladesh has been planned and implemented through the combined efforts of the Bangladeshi government, international aid donors, especially the Asian Development Bank, and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). The weight of development organizations in this coalition led to an explicit commitment to recognizing the role of women in such projects, both as the target group most dependent on forest resources for domestic needs and, for that same reason, as the group most knowledgeable about the forest's capacity for meeting local needs. / All the components of Social Forestry Programs were examined in two different villages. One village, Shakipur, is close to the local administrative center, while the other, Barsharchala, is more isolated. In both cases, the government had alienated itself from the local population through an aggressive approach to land appropriation. It therefore entrusted popular mobilization and credit distribution to Proshika, a national NGO. Four major conclusions emerge from this research: (1) benefits to women and other target groups have been marginal at best; (2) development planning treats village populations as largely homogenous, ignoring the existence of entrenched power holders who are able to capture the benefits of these programmes; (3) planners also ignore the specificity of local patterns of land ownership, a key factor in the success of participatory projects; and (4) "bottom up" development is in danger of failing because many areas lack a capacity for spontaneous popular mobilization.
