Abstract
EVER since the Forest Research Institute came into being at Dehra Dun (1907), the Sylvicultural Branch set out to obtain data for the preparation of volume and yield tables for some of the more important timbers such as teak, sal, and deodar, to mention but three of the best known throughout India. Selected sample plots of varying type and age had been previously formed by the forest officer in different parts of India, and more or less periodically measured and records kept. But for the most part the work was spasmodic and a proportion at least of the data obtained of doubtful usefulness.
