Abstract

Forests are known to provide a wide range of benefits including provisioning, regulatory, cultural and supporting services.They provide food, fodder, fuelwood, timber, manure, and medicinal products. Forests also absorb rain water and release it slowly, allowing seepage into the soil, preventing its run-off with water.
