Two methods, both were successful:

1. Agent Orange

2. Rome Plows

Daisy Cutter bombs and standard High Explosive General Purpose bombs also destroyed forests in Vietnam but only did so while performing their intended purposes; destroying the enemy (or making an LZ in the Daisy Cutters case).

What countries besides Vietnam were affected by Agent Orange?

Vietnam wasn't affected; SOUTH Vietnam was affected. NORTH Vietnam may not have been sprayed, but parts of the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Cambodia/Laos may have caught some of it. SOUTH Vietnam is where the vegetation was...that's were the enemy was hiding...that's where the forests and jungles had to be destroyed...to uncover the enemy...and keep him from remaining hidden. If the enemy was hiding and using forests and jungles in NORTH Vietnam...the US simply bombed the heck out of those areas. The place looked like the moon (all bomb craters!).
