For whom was the policy of commercial forestry beneficial?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The colonial state and timber trade

Under commercial forestry, the colonial government promoted the planned felling and planting of commercially useful trees such as teak and sal. This supplied timber for railways, shipbuilding and other industries, while also bringing revenue to the colonial state. Local communities faced restrictions on forest use, so option C is incorrect. Exam tip: in colonial forest policy questions, identify the colonial state and timber-based industries as the main beneficiaries.
