Punjab’s vegetation region was continuely decreasing due to many factors such as reckless cutting of trees, animal grazing and lack of laws. That’s why the British took certain steps to save natural vegetation and these were :
- Reclamation of forests was made and they were divided into many categories.
- Animal grazing was stopped to save natural vegetation.
- Extra vegetation was cleared to provide land for agriculture. Here more food grains were produced to meet the increasing needs of the people.
