current situation of forest resources

Nepal was once considered as greenery of forest as well as wealthiest in forest resource.however with passage of time day by day the population is increasing rapidly.moreover people start cutting down trees and destroys forest rapidly.now Nepal is weak and has very little forest areas where people are facing many problems like landslide,soil erosion and people has lost their lives and people has lost each part of their bodies.Many animals dies and many people has lost their properties.Moreover people has not stop cutting trees.This shows that ecological imbalance is gradually increasing.

The future of Nepal forest is not bright.If afforestation program is not conducted properly, the forest resources will be destroyed up coming year.There will be barren land all over the nepal and one day it will be story of forest that at many many years ago, nepal was called as greenery country.

Indirect benefits of forest resources

soil and water conservation: Forest are the best agents of preventing of erosion.In nepal day by day many forest are getting destroyed.Many of the forest land changed into barren land.people they cut down trees for their needs but they do not know what will be the effects of destroying of forest what will be the reasult.The result will be very dangerous which will effect them in future.

Due to deforestation their will be the environmental deterioration,their will be causes watershed degradation so their wiil be affected by the soil erosion and the deterioration of water bodies will increased the incidence of floods which damages properties and may take peoples life.So to prevent this effects forrest should be protected and should plant where there is barren land. Where there will be soil erosion forest helps to protects the soil.due to deforestation drinking water crises is day by day increasing.The under ground water level has gone down and wells have dried up.so forest helps to prevent from this effects.so forest is very very important resources.

• pollution control:Due to rapid population growth land,water,air are also getting polluted.Integrated management of forests and watersheds can contribute significantly to the contol of pollution and in promotion of water supply.

• Ecological balance:Forests helps to maintain ecological balance.The forest plants plays an important role to keep ecological balance in regulating the CO2 and O2 balance in the global atomosphere.In the hilly reason forest helps to protect the people,their animals and crops very efficiently.

Forest resources

A forest resources is a renewable resources resources.In Nepal both forest and water is regarded as economic and cultural live of the people. Forest has direct and indirect benefits which provides to us.
Direct benefits

• Sources of income and employment opportunities: Management of forest has carried out by government,community or individual generates income and employment opportunities for both both skilled and non-skilled workers.In rural areas of the families derive income from the collection of forest products.

There are many rivers and manipulates,streams,lake.In water resorces our country neapal is secound richet country in the world.but also it faces many problems regarding different purposes like drinking,hydroelecricity,irrigation etc. The main sorces of water are rivers,lakes and underground water.The main rivers of nepal are kankai,kamala,mechi,mahakali,bagmati,rapti and others, frm this rivers we can perform many works like irrigation,hydroelectricity,drinking,cleaningetc.mostly nepalese people are engaged in agricultural sector so water is very useful in irrigation.irrigation helps farmers to develop new technologies and intensive cultivation,both which give more production.

Water is used for drinking purposes.Drinking water is termed as life for people.Water also helps in the development of indrustr.various small,medium and large scale industries run with the help of hydroelectricity.many big industries cannot run with the help of elecricity so hydroelectrycity is very useful and important for the industries.hydroelectricity helps to reduce the cost of production therefore it has a great importance in the development of industries in nepal. so water resources is very very important in our daily life and for the development of a country.
