Tree cover transitions in space and time. Ikalahan Ancestral Domain

Export citation

The high pressure on the Kalahan Forest Reserve (KFR) contributes to the forest cover change within the ancestral domain. The conversion of forest to cash crop plantations, such as vegetable, is ranked as the dominant driver of tree change. Fortunately, the rate of deforestation is decreasing due to various tree growing activities implemented in the last decade.
