Economic aspects of afforestation and soil conservation projects
Abstract This paper argues for the need to broaden the economic analysis of afforestation projects beyond the traditional focus on the benefits of tree products themselves. If afforestation products are analyzed in terms of their capacity to produce wood and other tree products, their returns in arid and semi-arid areas are generally low. However, once their benefits in terms of stemming future declines in — and then actually enhancing—soil fertility are considered, the benefits may be appreciable.
