Forest, Farms, Fuelwood Cooking India
Summary
The study examines the impact of clean cooking interventions on fuelwood sourcing in Kullu and Koppal, India, finding that the reduction of forest dependence varies by location and is influenced by demand, resource substitutability, and socio-economic factors.
Key insights
- The impact of clean cooking solutions on fuelwood sourcing differed by location: households in Kullu reduced their dependence on forests, whereas households in Koppal reduced their dependence on farm sources.
- The extent to which forest extraction is reduced depends on several factors, including the type of demand (such as cooking versus heating), the availability and quality of farm resources as substitutes for forest resources, and the wealth and caste of the household.
