Forest practices
Forest practices are policies and activities designed to manage forests sustainably, balancing environmental health, economic benefits, and community needs. They include responsible logging, preserving wildlife habitats, replanting trees, and protecting water quality. The goal is to ensure forests remain healthy and productive for future generations while allowing for resource use. These practices often involve regulations, monitoring, and planning to minimize environmental impacts, promote biodiversity, and support forest-dependent industries and communities. Essentially, forest practices aim to manage and utilize forest resources thoughtfully to maintain ecological integrity and human benefits over the long term.
