Why it exists
A farm plantation deserves a reliable buyer.
Most of the hardwood Pooja Wood House handles was planted by a farmer on a field boundary, a canal bank or a corner of unproductive land — mango, neem, babool, eucalyptus, acacia, sheesham. It is agriculture, and it deserves the reliability of agriculture: a known buyer, a fair rate and a reason to plant again.
The Pooja Wood House FSC® FM certificate formalises that. It is a Forest Management certificate for Small and Low Intensity Managed Forests (SLIMF), aimed at promoting the sustainability of growers associated with farm plantation and its management. The Pooja Farmers Group is the associated group of growers whose plantations sit inside its scope.
PoojaPlus Farmers Producer Company Limited, based at Village Bai ka Bas, Kaladera, Tehsil Chomu, Jaipur, Rajasthan, provides the formal structure for Government schemes and farmer programmes. Growers are facilitated to join as members of the producer company or the farmers group.
For the grower
What membership gives you.
FSC® group certification
Coverage under the Pooja Wood House FSC® FM certificate, without the individual cost and audit burden of certifying a smallholding on your own. Growers are facilitated to join as members of the producer company or the farmers group.
A buyer who is already there
Pooja Wood House buys standing and felled farm timber across our operating districts. You are not looking for a market at harvest time.
Guidance on management
Support on species selection, spacing, plot records and the documentation the group certificate requires.
Access to certified markets
Certified material reaches export buyers who will not consider uncertified timber, which widens the market for what you grow.
Simple record-keeping
Plot-level records maintained as part of group membership — the paperwork stays proportionate to a smallholding.
A group, not a contract trap
Membership is about shared certification and a working relationship, not about signing your land away.

Common questions
Before you ask us.
Who holds the FSC® certificate?
Pooja Wood House holds the FSC® Forest Management certificate. The Pooja Farmers Group is the associated group of growers, and PoojaPlus Farmers Producer Company Limited is the producer company providing the formal structure for Government schemes. All three sit under the same ownership and management.
Does joining cost anything?
The point of a group certificate is that the certification cost is carried by Pooja Wood House rather than by each smallholder. Contact the farmer desk for the current terms in your district.
Am I obliged to sell only to Pooja Wood House?
Group membership is about shared FSC certification and a working relationship. Speak to our team about what is expected in your district before you enrol.
Which species are accepted?
Commonly mango, neem, babool, khair, sheesham, eucalyptus, acacia, sirish, arjun and lambu — the farm-grown hardwoods we mill. Others may be accepted depending on the district.
How small can a plot be?
The certificate is specifically designed for Small and Low Intensity Managed Forests, so small plots and boundary plantings are exactly what it is for.
What records will I need to keep?
Plot location and boundary, species and approximate numbers, planting and harvest dates. Our field team helps set this up at enrolment.
