GUEST SPEAKER: PROF. GURUSHARAN SINGH RANDHAWA

FIRST MUSEUM OF PATHOLOGY – Forest Pathology museum houses 900 exhibits of various economically important tree diseases and timber decays these are further divided according to the part of the plant affected namely root disease, stem disease and foliage disease. Important tree diseases such as heart-rot in khair, sal, teak and deodar and root-rot in khair, sal and pines have been displayed. Degradation of timber and timber products caused by micro- organisms are also displayed. Beneficial role of fungias mycorrhiza to establish and promote tree growth especially in pines and the value of fungi as a source of food are also displayed.

FIRST MUSEUM OF PATHOLOGY – This museum depicts the effect of environment with and without trees on productivity and economy of the villages. Photographs and Models show effect of tree growth on fuel wood, fodder and other forest products. Models show the nursery techniques for raising planting stocks, planting techniques and various protective measures for the plants. Models of improved smokeless chulhas to demonstrate the efficient use of fuel wood. Exhibits demonstrate the possibilities of establishing suitable cottage industries based on social forestry products and role of social forestry in providing employment, particularly to the landless people.

SILVICULTURE MUSEUM – The Silviculture Museum displays models and Photographs on Silvicultural Systems practised for efficient and scientific management of the forests. The most important exhibits are a series of large models showing the chief methods practised for regulating the felling and regeneration of a forest. General aim is to utilize the soil fully for perpetual supply of timber in the most paying sizes. These methods vary with the species, extraction facilities, proximity of markets, and market requirements

ENTOMOLOGY –This museum exhibit about 3,000 exhibits insect pests showing various stages and the nature of damage caused by them to seed, seedlings, standing trees, felled timbers, bamboos and also finished products. Important forestry pests like sal heart-wood borer, teak defoliator, Meliaceae shoot borer, poplar defoliators, deodar defoliator, sissoo defoliator, babul stem and root borer, their biology, life history and nature of damage have been showed along with methods to control them. Some of the insecticides and their application equipments are also exhibited. Various commercial timbers have been listed according to their termite resistance property.

CONCLUSION –

Our student captivating much more knowledge about Entomology museum. The museum demonstrate the diversity of Insects, and how to conserve and protect the insect’s diversity. Inspite of that the social environment emphasis the environmental effect with and without trees on productivity and economy of the villages. Reveal the possibilities of founding suitable cottage industries based on social forestry products and role of social forestry in providing employment, particularly to the landless people.
