摘要：

Alteration of forested land to other uses incurs costs to a nation's economy that are frequently not calculated in estimates of national productivity. Alternative methods of value are discussed and employed to evaluate the non-timber products of India's tropical deciduous forests. Many undervalued resources found in these forests are described, and monetary value ascribed to them, to demonstrate the importance of the resources to the Indian economy.
