How is the combined aim of revenue and resource control visible in deforestation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the policy of taking tax from cultivation and useful timber from forests

The colonial government cleared forests to expand cultivation and collect land revenue. At the same time, it sought state control over valuable timber needed for railways, ships, and construction. Thus, taxing cultivation while extracting useful timber from forests shows both aims together. Giving local communities full rights would be the opposite of colonial forest policy, which restricted customary access. Exam tip: mention both ‘revenue from agricultural expansion’ and ‘control of timber’ in answers on deforestation.
