Zhu Abstract Planted forests are anticipated to increase in area and to supply an increasing proportion of the world’s timber supplies in future decades. However, because of their increasing importance, management of these forests will need to pay greater attention to silvicultural practices which can help to sustain and improve the delivery of a range of other values besides timber production.

Poverty and land scarcity pushed farmers to clear native forest for agriculture, often using ‘slash and burn’ techniques. People chopped down trees to provide firewood, charcoal or timber for buildings. The products generated were either consumed by families or traded locally, but they did not reach foreign markets. Increasingly, however, tropical deforestation is being driven by commercial operations linked to global markets. In Indonesia and Brazil, a growing proportion of deforestation is caused by export-led agricultural expansion.
