Afforestation is the establishment of a forest or stand of trees in an area where there was no forest.[1]Reforestationis the reestablishment of forest cover, either naturally (by natural seeding, coppice, or root suckers) or artificially (by direct seeding or planting).[2]Many governments and non-governmental organizations directly engage in programs of afforestation to create forests, increase carbon capture and sequestration, and help to anthropogenically improve biodiversity. (In the UK, afforestation may mean converting the legal status of some land to "royal forest".) Special tools, e.g. tree planting bar, are used to make planting of trees easier and

faster

.

Afforestation

is the process of establishing a forest on land that is not a forest, or has not been a forest for a long time by planting trees or their seeds. (It is different from reforestation which means planting trees again after they have been cut down.)
