About Himalayan Forest Research Institute (HRFI): Himalayan Forest Research Institute (HFRI), Shimla, Himachal Pradesh was established as the High-Level Conifer Regeneration Research Centre in May 1977 for carrying out research on problems associated with the natural regeneration of Silver Fir and Spruce. The institute made its humble beginning by starting functioning from a single room in “The Kennedy House” and later with the increased research activities of this center, an independent building “Press Villa” near the U.S. club was allotted to it during 1978.
At the time of the reorganization of forestry research in ICFRE in 1998 Govt. of India appreciated the problems of the Temperate Eco-system and decided to develop this center into a full-fledged research institute.
