Technological development creates new opportunities and structures and increases efficiency. Despite the importance of technological development, it has rarely been the focus of research in the forestry. It is often taken as a given, like an "externality" that falls from heaven. This is probably partly due to the difficulties related to the phenomenon itself. The scope of technological development and its impacts are often dauntingly large. Technological changes may alter forest industries, as well as forest management, utilization, and growth. Yet there are many inclusion of technology in the forestry sector i.e. field of nursery management, monitoring of the forest area, protection wing, etc.., this paper is comparison of production efficiency achieved by the adoption technologies in certain instances with the area where the technology is yet to be adopted. This paper on the whole gives as a detail picture about the various technology available, its adoption and nature of usage in India and an elaborative picture about the failure of adoption of technology by the stakeholders and a solution for it.
