Patodia, our President - Elect suggesting that ESRF undertake a research project on "Forest for Food and Development". We agree with you that the subject matter is important and needs to be researched. However in view of paucity of funds ESRF will not be able to undertake this project. In case anybody/Institution wishes to sponsor this project, ESRF
would be most happy to undertake it. 20. Copy of letter No. Ps/1286 dated 05-08-1983 from Mr. H.K.

you have sent with considerable interest. 21. Extract Copy of letter dated 13-05-1983 of Mr. Ashok Khosla,
of Development Alternatives, New Delhi to S.M. Jain. Dear Mr. Jain, I read your paper on "Forest for Food and Development" with the greatest interest and found it most informative. The research programme outlined at the end of the paper seems
both valuable and realistic. 22. Copy of D.O. letter No. NEHU/ VCF -12/83-246 dated

You have raised many basic questions in your article "Forest for Food and Development". I have also gone through the outline of the proposed research programme. I find that the objectives are very wide and I doubt if justice can be done to any of those aspects within the limited frame which you envisaged
