Forest Nurseries

Forest Nursery are classified into temporary and permanent depending upon the objectives and species to be raised. Temporary nursery is designed to provide the seedlings needed to plant in a particular area and when the area is completely planted , the nursery will be moved elsewhere. The advantage of temporary nursery is in reduction of transport distance between the nursery and plantation as this nursery is within the planting area or close to it. Thus, it reduce cost and the risk of damage to seedling in transport.But, in case of permanent nursery, the plant is not moved elsewhere because it is planted in the required area.
