Effect of changes in forest management on shifting cultivators-
When the colonial government reserved the forest areas for themselves,it greatly affected the day to day life of the shifting cultivators .For centuries these cultivators used to cut certain parts of the forest in rotation ,burn the trees and snow-seeds in the ashes after the first monsoon rains ,but the British government reserved these forests for themselves .There centuries old professions of shifting agriculture was stopped once for all.
Effects of forest laws on pastoralists- The reservation of forests areas by the British government also sealed the fate of many nomadic and pastoralists communities .They could not graze their cattle in the forest area,nor could they collect fruits and roots to eat ,woo to construct their houses ,make their agricultural implements and to make fences ,and to collect herbs to use as medicines etc.
Hope this information will clear your doubt.
Regards
