Question

Write one role of Joint Forest Management (JFM) and People’s Biodiversity Register (PBR) each for the conservation of biodiversity.

WBBSE Class X Life Science 05 (d) Biodiversity and Its Conservation 02 Mark 2023

Answer

Joint Forest Management (JFM): JFM involves local communities in the management of forests, which helps to ensure that forests are managed in a sustainable way and that local communities benefit from them.

People’s Biodiversity Register (PBR): PBRs document the traditional knowledge of local communities about biodiversity, which helps to protect this knowledge from being lost and can be used to conserve biodiversity in a number of ways.
