Woodland Economy

Woodland economy refers to the economic activities and benefits derived from forests and woodlands. It encompasses sustainable practices such as timber production, non-timber forest products (like fruits, nuts, and medicinal plants), and eco-tourism. This approach emphasizes responsible management and conservation of forest resources to support livelihoods while maintaining ecological balance. By valuing forests not just as sources of timber, woodland economies contribute to biodiversity, climate regulation, and cultural heritage, ultimately fostering resilience in local communities and economies.
