Abstract:

Forestry extension in Ethiopia has been mirrored in the agriculture extension package as one aspect commonly to address land and forest degradation. In contrast to the top-down approach, the participatory extension has given momentum to promote afforestation and rehabilitation of degraded land for transferring sufficient knowledge and addressing growers’ choices to raise tree species for various purposes. However, the research on forestry-related participatory technology development, adaption, and extension seems overlooked. The purpose of this review was to draw on the experiences of countrie

Abstract:

Forestry communication has experienced a major revival in recent years. Forest companies, associations, and government agencies are all joining in the task of creating a "more aware and understanding" general public, with the ultimate goal of developing a broad-based Canadian forestry constituency to support increases in government funding and the development of more progressive policies for the sector. Across the country, public relations and forestry education programs are being targeted for consumption by specific audiences. A review of many of these forestry messages, however, reveals a di

Despite a plethora of studies on afforestation, a close analysis of the focus of many studies conducted to date reveal the existence of a gap in knowledge on role of forestry extension in promoting sustainable afforestation as an on-farm economic activity in developing countries, Zimbabwe being a case in point. Despite an absence of studies, evidence from studies conducted in elsewhere seem to pinpoint the significance of forestry extension services in enhancing afforestation adoption as an on-farm economic activity.

Abstract:

Various efforts to overcome the problem of land and forest fires in Indonesia are still being carried out. All parties' involvement is necessary to prevent forest and land fires, including forestry extension workers. Prevention is not only in the form of outreach to the public about the prohibition of burning, but prevention is more aimed at how to prevent fires from being lit or small fires from being extinguished before the fire spreads. This is where the role of the forestry extension agent as a community assistance agent is essential. This paper examines the role of forestry extension work

Furthermore, recent theoretical developments in DEA are used to assess the gains from a number of potential mergers and to decompose these gains into those from technological improvements, harmony effects, and scale effects. The results show that inefficiency is widespread and may in some cases be improved through mergers due to potential harmony gains a

Abstract:

Abstract Bangladesh houses a substantial amount of forests. People extract a range of goods and services from the forests. Although the accounted contribution of the forests in the national economy is reasonable, the social and ecological importance is immense. Although the Bangladesh government has taken several initiatives to protect them, the forests are being depleted due to many reasons. It is believed that in future, the degradation will be aggravated because of increasing population and persistent poverty. Demand for environmental goods will rise but will not be met because of continued

Abstract:

Extension is a multi-faceted learning discipline. It is a process that works with people and the best available science and information to achieve a desired change. While science and technology provide information and tools to support sustainable development, it is the extension of this knowledge to those who must make decisions that enables innovation and sustainable forest management. There are many attempts at improving the links between the forest science and technology community, and the forest policy and management communities. It is time to make a long-term investment in forestry extens

Abstract:

Social forestry programs have been implemented to restore ecological balance, improve livelihoods, and enhance the overall well-being of rural communities. This study aimed to assess the impact and social benefits of the social forestry program in Thanjavur district, Tamil Nadu. A survey of 150 farmers was conducted in Orathanadu and Thanjavur blocks to gather data on socio-economic characteristics and perceived social benefits of the program. Data was collected through structured interviews and focus group discussions with farmers. Mean and simple percentage analysis were used to analyze the

Abstract:

Natural disturbances in forested landscapes are increasing in frequency. Hurricanes and flooding events can cause extreme damages to forested ecosystems and the forest products industry. The state of South Carolina experienced four major hurricanes and flooding events between 2015 and 2018. A survey was sent out to the members of the American Tree Farm System (ATFS) in South Carolina in 2017 to better understand the impact of two of these events—the historical flood of October 2015 and hurricane Matthew in October 2016—on family forest operations. Forty-eight percent of surveys were returned.

Abstract:

The use of biostimulants and bioinputs, including biofertilizers, biopesticides and microorganisms for agricultural use, has been developed considerably in the last three decades. Definitions for biostimulants vary greatly and there are still some arguments surrounding these compounds. However, they are defined as non-hormonal products which have a beneficial effect on plant growth. Many of these biostimulant materials are natural products that contain no added chemicals or synthetic plant growth regulators. Agricultural and forestry extension in biostimulants and bioinputs in Costa Rica has b

In rural Malawi, rapid population growth has contributed to deforestation, land and other chronic resource scarcities. In 1995, a team of Canadian graduate students and Malawian extension workers investigated and attempted to find solutions to specific local resource scarcities. Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) was used to assess total resource supply, evaluate food security and gender issues, facilitate village fuelwood action plan and inquire into the non-adoption of a tree nursery scheme.

Abstract:

Forests are natural resources that provide many benefits, both directly and indirectly. Forest utilization and forest preservation are very important for the sustainability of life, therefore the use and conservation of forests must be balanced. In forest conservation, the government must be proactive and act as a driving force and as the main forest protector. In addition to the government, the community must also play an active role in preserving and reforesting forests (reforestation). The government has established a forestry service whose task is to maintain the sustainability and sustain
