Some of the steps we can take to conserve our forest resources are as follows:
1. Regulated Some of the steps we can take to conserve our forest resources are as follows:
1. Regulated and Planned Cutting of Trees
Therefore, cutting should be regulated by adopting methods like:
(i) Clear cutting,
(ii) Selective cutting, and
(iii) Shelter wood cutting.
The clear cutting method is useful for those areas where the same types of trees are available over a large area. In that case, trees of same age group can be cut down in a selected area and then marked for replantation. In selective cutting only mature trees are selected for cutting. This process is to be followed in rotation. Sheker wood cutting is where first of all useless trees are cut down followed by medium and best quality timber trees.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The time gap between these cuttings is helpful in re-growth of trees. In regulated cutting only one-tenth of the forest area is selected for use and rotational system is always followed for their protection. The forest can be managed in such a way that a timber crop may be harvested indefinitely year after year without being depleted. This technique is called the ‘sustained yield’ method adopted by many countries.
2. Control over Forest Fire:
Destruction or loss of forest by fire is fairly common; because trees are highly exposed to fire and once started it becomes difficult to control. Sometimes, the fire starts by natural process, i.e., by lightning or by friction between trees during speedy winds, while in most cases it is also by man either intentionally or unintentionally.
According to an estimate, during the period from 1940 to 1950, in the US alone, fires consumed an average of 21.5 million acres of timber yearly and as many as 1,175,664 cases of forest fires occurred during 1955 to 1964 period. In US forests fire is very common and a main cause of the loss of forest.
Throughout the world forest fire is common and in most cases they were begun by man. As John D. Guthrie, former fire inspector of US Forest Service has written: “To stage a forest fire you need only few things a forest, the right atmospheric conditions, and a spark either from a lightning bolt or a match in the hands of

3. Reforestation and Afforestation
4. Check over Forest Clearance for Agricultural and Habitation Purposes
5. Protection of forests
6. Proper Utilisation of Forest and Forests Products
7. Role of Government in Forest Conservation
8. Forest Management:
Management of forest resources is the key to all conservation efforts.

steps-
1.we should have control over forest fire.
2.the cutting of trees must be sttoped at all costs.
3.it is a national problem so it must be tackled with the perfect coordination between forest department and other departments.
4. many afforestation programs must be launched on a large scale.
5. cutting of timer must be restricted.
hope it helps...:):):)
