Protection and preservation of forest is known as conservation. The important measures of conservation of forest are:
- Forest fires, pests and **** should be controlled through the scientific methods.
- Encroachers of forest area should be severely punished.
- Forest education, research and training should be expanded through programmes like vanamahotsava, social forestry, and reforestation.
Industrial and mining activities in the forest regions should be compensated by reforestation.
