Forest area (sq. km)

This indicator measures the extent of land characterized by natural or intentionally cultivated tree stands that reach a minimum height of 5 meters, reflecting both ecological significance and potential timber resources. It explicitly excludes areas where trees are integrated into agricultural practices, such as orchards or agroforestry setups, as well as those found within urban green spaces like parks and gardens. Understanding the size and distribution of these forested areas is crucial for assessing biodiversity, combating climate change, and informing sustainable land management practices. Additionally, it can shed light on the health of ecosystems and the role of forests in supporting various flora and fauna, making it vital for ecological studies and conservation efforts. Source:
