Abstract

The present study was conducted to find out the constraints faced by the tribal people in conservation of bio-diversity in Eastern Ghats of Tamil Nadu. The study was conducted in two blocks namely Pethanaickenpalayam block in Salem district and Jawadhu hill block in Thiruvannamalai districts respectively. A list of constraints related to the bio-diversity conservation has been prepared and survey was conducted among 182 tribal respondents in the study area. It was found that indiscriminate felling of trees, conversion of forest land in to agricultural land, higher usage of plant protection and production chemicals, increased human settlements in the eco sensitive area and land fragmentation were the major constraints concerning the bio-diversity conservation. Also suitable suggestions to overcome the identified constraints were discussed in this paper.
