Core
FRM211:Forestry and Wildlife Management
The main purposes for which forests are cleared are agriculture, wood production, industrial layout and human settlement. The conversion of natural forest to pasture is widespread in the tropics, where there is a long tradition of cattle husbandry. Once roads were built, the larger trees were felled and pastoralists completed the destruction. Along with the trees, most of the wild animals in the forest have become endangered or extinct.
What Will You Learn?
In this course we shall learn how to produce seedlings of the major important tree species we cannot get in their natural environment any longer and nurture them to replanting stage. We shall also learn how to afforest the land to enable us get timber and other wood resources we can no longer get from the natural forest. Finally, the last stage of this course will talk about how we can harvest (fell) and transport the harvested timber and other wood species.
