Natural Regeneration of High Forest in Tanganyika

Abstract

The Forest Development Plan for the period 1960–64 allocates less than 10 per cent of the expenditure on field work to natural regeneration but the contribution which natural regeneration makes to forest development is much greater than this proportion would suggest. About 15,000 acres of high forest are classed as “regenerated or under treatment”, while the area of established State plantations is about 26,500 acres.
