Abstract

Forest disturbances are caused mostly by human interference to the forest in the form of swidden agriculture and logging for commercial demand. Ecological process of deforestation and its subsequent development is actually the underlying phenomenon which determines the resulting relationship between man and biosphere including the forest and land. Therefore some understanding about the process is discussed for the analysts to find alternatives or technologies which are able to safeguard the existing forest resources from further deforestation. There are several major perceived management options in rehabilitating and utilizing the tropical forest and degraded areas. The options and the0802 intensity of management inputs or treatments depend upon the objectives of management condition of the forest the soil location and other social and environmental factors. These options are therefore discussed. The paper focuses on issues and problems pertaining to the mentioned options.
