Forest Resources Assessment

Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) is a comprehensive process that evaluates the state, extent, and health of forests worldwide. It involves collecting data on forest areas, types, growth, and usage to understand how forests contribute to biodiversity, climate regulation, and local economies. The assessment helps governments and organizations make informed decisions about forest management, conservation, and sustainable use. By tracking changes over time, FRA provides insights into deforestation, forest degradation, and reforestation efforts, supporting global efforts to preserve these vital ecosystems for future generations.
