In most countries both trees and forage are important but there is not enough of either resource to satisfy all needs. Therefore, in considering forest grazing, the need for a type of management which will permit the production of wood products as well as forage should be kept in mind. 3, record 2, English, - forest%20grazing

Dans la plupart des pays, les ressources forestières et fourragères revêtent une grande importance, mais bien souvent ces ressources ne suffisent pas à satisfaire les besoins de la population. Aussi convient-il, dans une étude du pâturage en forêt, de ne jamais perdre de vue la nécessité d'un aménagement permettant tant la production de bois que la production fourragère. 2, record 2, French, - p%C3%A2turage%20en%20for%C3%AAt

A great deal of forest destruction and degradation is caused by the expansion of farming and grazing. Other forces are the market demand for wood as a commodity and the local demand for fuel-wood and other forest resources for subsistence living. These pressures may be eased by boosting agricultural productivity, slowing the rate of population growth, involving local people in sustainable forest management and wood-harvesting practices... 1, record 3, English, - sustainable%20wood%2Dharvesting%20practice

La destruction et la dégradation des forêts sont en grande partie dues à l'extension des cultures et des pâturages. Il faut également citer la demande commerciale de bois en tant que produit de base et les besoins locaux en bois de feu et autres ressources forestières qui permettent aux populations d'assurer leur subsistance. Ces pressions peuvent être atténuées en encourageant la productivité agricole, en ralentissant la croissance démographique, en associant les populations à une gestion des forêts et des pratiques de récolte du bois durables [...] 1, record 3, French, - pratique%20de%20r%C3%A9colte%20du%20bois%20durable
