The Minor Forest Produce (MFP) is included in the Forest Rights Act (FRA), 2006. The FRA recognizes the rights of forest-dwelling communities over the MFP collected within their traditional forest lands. MFP refers to a range of non-timber forest products such as honey, wax, medicinal plants, herbs, roots, tubers, etc., which are collected by forest-dwelling communities for their sustenance and livelihood. The Minimum Support Price (MSP) is a price support mechanism provided by the government to safeguard the interests of farmers for certain agricultural crops. However, the MSP is not applicable to Minor Forest Produce (MFP) as they are not agricultural commodities. MFP is collected from the forests and does not involve cultivation or farming.
