Deforestation in Uganda

See all formats and editions

A study of the gradual destruction of Uganda's extensive forest.

The author traces the process and analyzes its causes from the first introduction of agriculture to the appropriation of national forest reserves by private individuals in the Amin years.

He documents the developments that have turned Karamoja from a well-wooded land into one of the world's most disastrous famine areas, and reduced the forest cover and wildlife habitat to a mere fraction of its former extent.
