| dc.description | Forests are valuable resources due to a number of goods they offer to the national economy and in the improvement of human welfare. Benefits of the forest ranges from the maintenance of environmental integrity to direct utilization potentials as a source of timber, building poles, non wood products, etc. The high population growth rate in Tanzania (2.8 percent) has increased the demand for food, agricultural products as well as expansion of land areas for settlement. As a result, the rate of env ironmental degradation has been accelerated (estimated at 140 000 to 500 000 ha/year). The increased environmental destruction in the natural forest resources forced the establishment of some protected areas. | |
