The scope of urban forestry encompasses the management and cultivation of trees and green spaces within urban environments to enhance ecological health, improve air quality, and provide aesthetic and recreational benefits. It involves planning and implementing strategies for tree planting, maintenance, and community engagement, addressing challenges like climate change and urban development. Furthermore, urban forestry contributes to biodiversity, mitigates urban heat islands, and supports overall community well-being by creating greener, more livable cities.

No, the land use in Panama is not predominantly forestry. While forests cover a significant portion of the country, agricultural activities, including the cultivation of crops like bananas and coffee, play a major role in land use. Additionally, urban development and infrastructure also contribute to land use patterns in Panama. Thus, while forestry is important, it is not the primary land use.
