What was common between agricultural expansion and plantation expansion?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Forest land was cleared for both

Forests were cleared on a large scale to create farmland and to establish plantations for crops such as tea, coffee, or rubber. Thus, both activities reduced forest cover and put pressure on forest land. Option C is the opposite of this, because expansion did not conserve natural forests; it led to their clearance. Exam tip: Remember agricultural expansion and commercial plantations as separate examples of causes of deforestation.
