Nagaland - Investment and Industrial Policies

Bamboo Policy

Bamboo is found extensively in Nagaland. It occurs as a predominant plant in parts of the districts of Dimapur, Peren, Mon and Mokokchung; it is found mixed with other forest species in all other districts. About 5% of the growing stock of bamboo of the country is in Nagaland which is about 4,48,000 hectares.

The dominant species in Nagaland are Kako (Dendrocalamus hamiltonii), Dolo (Teinostachyum dulloa) and Jati (Bambusa tulda). They occur all along the lower belts in the border with Assam. While Kakoo and Daloo clumps are characterised in moist localities along the nalas and streams, Jati occupies better-drained sites. In more accessible localities along the roads bamboos have been over cut while, in other areas they have been left untouched for may years. Hence there is huge potential for the bamboo industry in the state.
