Abstract

The present study was undertaken to analyze the trend and growth rate performance  of forest area as well as geographical area, dense forest,Open Forest, and Total Forest  of the Banda district of Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh. The time series data has  been collected from the Forest Survey of India, which was published by Dehradun,  Uttarakhand. It is under the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change,  Government of India, from 1991-91 to 2021-22 periods. It was found that the simple  and compound growth rates were -4.74 and -4.31, respectively, of the geographical  area. The simple and compound growth rates of -15.54 and -13.72, respectively, of  the total forest area of the Banda district were negative but significant.
