Detailed Solution

People in forested areas provided elephants, timber, honey, and wax to Mauryan officials. There were forested regions where people were more or less independent, but they were still expected to pay tribute to Mauryan officials. In modern times, tribes also give forestry products to their higher officials in an indirect manner. Because the Mauryan empire was so vast, different parts were treated differently.

There were forests in some areas, such as central India, where people gathered forest produce and hunted animals for food.
