Bamboo has been the lifeline of rural India since time immemorial. With the passage of time and development of technologies leading to new usage, the 'green gold' has turned into a potential game changer for rural economy - for the farmer and industry equally.

With this background and number of progressive measures including the amendment of the Indian Forest Act to remove bamboo outside forests from the definition of 'trees', the restructured National Bamboo Mission (NBM) was launched in 2018-19 for the development of complete value chain of bamboo sector linking growers (farmers) with industry starting from raising quality planting material, plantation, creation of facilities for collection, aggregation, processing, micro, small & medium enterprises, skill development and brand building initiative in a cluster approach mode.

‘National Bamboo Mission’ invites farmers, entrepreneurs, researchers, bamboo-based industry to send in their experiences, innovations, and good practices adopted for increased productivity, strengthen supply of raw material to industry, products in sync with contemporary markets, REPLACE SINGLE USE PLASTICS, new age construction, and other sunrise uses.

Bamboo is a crucial element in the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. A grove of bamboo release 35% more oxygen than an equivalent stand of trees. Because of this, planting bamboo is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and help fight global warming. Bamboo is a viable replacement for wood.

हमारे देश में आज भी बांस से आदिवासी लोग इतनी सुन्दर कला से विभिन्न प्रकार के समान बनाते हैं जो जो घर की शोभा बढ़ाते हैं। हमे ऎसे लोगो की कला को बढ़ावा देना चाहिए और ऎसे ही सुंदर बांस से बुने हुए समान खरीदना चाहिए... जिससे देश का पेसा देश में ही रहे विदेशी समान का बहिष्कार करे.. यही हमारा देश के प्रति सच्ची देश भक्ति होगी....

Bamboo charcoal can be a game changer. All bamboo species including those which are ‘not directly economically viable’ can be converted into bamboo charcoal and activated carbon. This can tap even those naturally growing species which are considered a nuisance because of their rapid propagation. This will benefit the farmers, green innovators and entrepreneurs alike as activated carbon has a huge market for cosmetics and healthcare products.

The major constraint in the bamboo value chain is its inability to tap the domestic market. As a result, commercialisation of bamboo is confined to limited areas where development agencies are implementing projects

A success story in the bamboo value chain can be seen in Nagaland. The Nagaland Bamboo Mission assists the farmers in undertaking plantation in their lands/fields, this directly benefits the farmers. The farmers then sell their raw bamboo to the entrepreneurs engaged in treatment and processing who sell their ‘treated’ bamboo to artisans making handicrafts, furniture, constructions,etc. Then finally, the finished goods are packaged and marketed by entrepreneurial firms,etc.
