The concept of 'Community Forestry' (CF) was formally launched in Nepal in 1978. It was given high priority by 'Master Plan for Forestry Sector' (MPFS) developed in 1989 (FINIDA, 1989). The CF is concerned with people's participation in 'Protection', 'Production', 'Management' and 'Utilization of Forest'(Gilmour and Fisher, 1992). The Forest Act 1993 and Forest Regulation 1995, have given CFUG the legal rights to 'Protect', 'Manage' and 'Use Forest Resources'. The CFUGs are authorized to sell and distribute the forest products independently fixing their price (Lamichhane etal, 2000; Chapagain et al, 1999; Oli, 2000).
