Total forest and tree cover of India as per ISFR-2021 is

  • A.22.30%
  • B.21.60%
  • C.24.62%
  • D.21.71%

Answer: C

The total forest and tree cover of India as per ISFR 2021 is 24.62% of the geographical area.

The India State of Forest Report 2021 put forest cover at 21.71% and tree cover at 2.91% of the country's geographical area, making a total of 24.62%.

21.71% is forest cover alone, the trap in this question, and the other figures do not match the report.

The report is prepared every two years by the Forest Survey of India, Dehradun, using satellite data; forest cover counts all land of more than one hectare with tree canopy density above 10%, whatever its legal status.
