Abstract
Phytodiversity helps our lives in various
means. In recent decade, due to increasing human activities, plant diversity is
decreasing which is at alarming rate. To protect, phytodiversity, various
conservation reserves have been declared. In the rpesent investigation, a
survey of phytodiversity was conducted at Narhad conservation forest region of
Chirawa, Jhunjhnu, Rajasthan during October to January 2022-23. During survey,
a total of 83 plants were identified which included 1 climber, 28 herb, 25
shrub, 25 tree and 5 undershrub. The identified plants were belonged to 37
different families. The highest number of plants belonged to Fabaceae family.
Frequency, density, abundance and IVI were also calculated for each species. The
current study is a reminder to conserve the pivotal resources bestowed upon us
by mother nature in the form of plants. Considering the current state of affairs,
if the biodiversity extinction continues to occur at this rate, the day is not
far off when all forms of life will cease to exist on earth. In this context,
setting up of conservation reserves like Narhad
conservation forest region by state and central governments is a crucial step
towards amelioration of the pathetic situation.
