Write a comment on the closure of the forests to grazing from the standpoint of
(a) a forester
(b) a pastoralist
(a) A forester Since a forester’s duty is to ensure the conservation of forests, it is good that the forests have been closed for grazing. This will ensure proper growth of the vegetation and trees, so that the forest wealth will be maintained.
(b) A pastoralist Earlier our animals were grazing in the forest area, where vegetation was plentiful. Now, since the closure of forests for grazing, our animals have to be taken far away to find grass and vegetation for food.
This has put us to a lot of inconvenience, as managing our flock has become more difficult.
