Establishment of a forest by artificial means on an area from which vegetation has always or long been absent is called

  • A.reforestation
  • B.afforestation
  • C.deforestation
  • D.None of the above

Answer: B

This is afforestation.

Afforestation means establishing a forest by planting or sowing on land that has not carried forest for a long time, or never did, such as grassland, wasteland or mine spoil.

Reforestation re-establishes forest on land that was recently forested, after felling or fire. Deforestation is the permanent removal of forest. Since afforestation fits exactly, 'None of the above' is wrong.
