The USFS National Reforestation Strategy was created in response to the growing threat of deforestation across the United States. The strategy is designed to improve forest health and resilience by supporting the reforestation of degraded and deforested areas. The strategy includes a number of key initiatives, such as increasing tree planting rates, improving tree survival rates, and reducing post-planting mortality. By implementing this strategy, the USFS hopes to create a more sustainable forest landscape that is better able to withstand the impacts of climate change and other environmental threats.
