Forestry & Conservation:
There are common misconceptions about the production of African hardwood timber. The truth is that selective logging and thinning allow stronger trees to thrive while promoting regeneration. This enhances biodiversity and ensures long-term forest health. Forestry concessions give forests economic value, protecting them from being cleared for agriculture. Without sustainable management, these areas become vulnerable to deforestation and habitat loss. By balancing economic needs with conservation, responsible forestry ensures forests remain productive and thriving for future generations.
