What was the relation between deforestation and food security in colonial context?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Forest land was cleared to grow food crops for a rising population

In the colonial period, population growth and the demand for food crops led to the expansion of cultivation. Forest land was cleared and converted into farmland in many areas, increasing deforestation. Option C is incorrect because cultivation expanded due to rising, not declining, food demand. Exam tip: link deforestation with agricultural expansion and the growing need for food production.
