The network of the 20 forest nuseries within Butula District have resolved in aggressive afforestation efforts within the district even a 10 year period 2011-2101 with their annuals capacity of 500000 seedlings they should avail 5 million seedlings.
This has arisen from unprecedented deforestation attributable to the high population density and growth resulting to sub division of farms establishment of settlements and conversion of wet lands into farm lands,further more adoption of sugarcane monoculture replacing other food and cash crops including fallow land extensively used for grazing has seriously deciminated local tree cover.
