Abstract:
Russian poplars are backbone to the economy of Kashmiri farmers since they were introduced in Kashmir by World Bank in 1982 with the reason they mature quickly as compared to native species. These trees have protected large part of the forest cover in Kashmir over the years as they supplied wood for the construction purpose and saves about 300,000 cubic feet of conifer timber annually in Kashmir. They have maintained ecological balance as well.
