What effect could Forest Acts have on local peoples livelihood?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Access to forest products could decrease

Under Forest Acts, many forests were declared reserved or protected, and customary local uses such as collecting timber, fuel and fodder, hunting, grazing, or shifting cultivation were restricted or controlled. Therefore, reduced access to forest products could harm local livelihoods. The other options wrongly suggest greater rights or unrestricted access, whereas colonial forest laws generally increased state control. Exam tip: link colonial forest laws with reduced local rights and greater government control.
