Moderate

In practice forests are not normal. They are 'abnormal' in ways:

Correct answer: C. Both (a) & (b)

  • A. They are overstocked. This is found in forests where there is more area of forest under the older age classes
  • B. They are under stocked. This is due to larger proportion of area under immature crops
  • C. Both (a) & (b)
  • D. None of these

Explanation

A forest departs from the normal condition when its age-class distribution produces overstocking, commonly through excess older classes, or understocking associated with an excess of immature crops. Thus both forms are recognised.
