Reforestation is the organised planting of trees in areas from which forest trees have been removed. It is a deliberate effort to restore the ecological function and structure of deforested or degraded land. The objective of reforestation is to establish a forest with a structure and composition that is as similar as possible to the original forest. It is a crucial process for mitigating the negative impacts of deforestation on the environment, including soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and climate change.
