Solution
The correct option is D Multipurpose uses
Forests cannot be conserved until and unless conservation of forests is turned into a people's movement and masses are involved in conservation efforts. With this motive twin programmes of social and urban forestry, were launched for rural and urban areas respectively. Social forestry was started in 1976 with the aim of raising quick growing multipurpose plants in common village lands for meeting requirement of fodder, firewood and small timber. This will reduce the dependance on existing forests, lead to development of new green cover, provide employment, reduce pollution and utilise the unused land for benefit of rural masses.
