Government Steps: Government paid due attention to the promotion of
forests. From time to time tree plantation weeks are observed for
encouraging the people to plant trees. Pursuing this objective,
government has ordered the plantation of trees on road sides and near
railway tracks. In the villages cooperative societies are encouraged to
pursue this goal.
Forest service has been organized on scientific lines. In the areas adjacent to Ghulam Muhammad Barrage and in Thal, tracts of land were reserved for tree plantation. Through press and publication, people are encouraged to plant trees on large scale. For the proper maintenance of the available forests, the government has made proper arrangements for imparting technical training to the forest service personnel. Forest college and research institute was established in Peshawar in order to promote research in this field.
