In summary, we have three outputs: afforestation area, reforestation area, and junior-forest tending area, and one input: total expense in silviculture.
To enforce incentives to plant trees, afforestation responsibility was decentralized to local leaders in 1984.
Afforestation is also found to strongly depend on the pressure upon land as well as on household wealth.
Although post-colonial governments have launched several afforestation programmes, commercialisation and attendant revenue generation received the greater policy thrust.
The aim of the subsequent sections is then to highlight the determinants of afforestation.
Environmental interventions such as soil conservation, afforestation, and rehabilitation would be adopted to restore denuded areas.
Here we will focus on the supply side, with emphasis on carbon-sequestration projects involving reforestation or afforestation.
There are other new, continuing experiments, but they are limited to wasteland afforestation.
