Resumen
Descripción
Forest communities in the east and southeast of Afghanistan almost completely rely on forest products for their food security. Forest vegetables (spinach, rhubarb, and mallow), fruits (Pine Nuts, Pistachio, Almond, Jujube, and Bir), honey, mushrooms, and meat not only fulfill the needs of forest communities but are also sold in the national and international markets which boosts the economy and livelihood. Pine nuts, pistachios, walnuts, and almonds have a very huge market inside and outside the country. Forest honey or wild honey is a portion of good food for locals and is more nutritious than ordinary honey, having a much higher price in the market as well.
