  • India now has a globally recognized forest-certification scheme developed specifically for Indian forests.
  • Network for Certification and Conservation of Forests (NCCF), an Indian non-profit organization will be the nodal agency in India.
  • It will set the standards for India’s forests, forest products, and sustainable management.
  • Several developed countries have put trade restrictions on the import of non-certified timber, non-timber forest products, and wood-based goods into their countries.
  • So, getting sustainable forest management certificates has become mandatory for exports.
