About indicator
Forest area is land under natural or planted stands of trees of at least 5 meters in situ, whether productive or not, and excludes tree stands in agricultural production systems (for example, in fruit plantations and agroforestry systems) and trees in urban parks and gardens. The values include the areas of the sub-categories “Primary forest”, “Planted forest”, and “Naturally regenerating forest”, and are sourced from the Forest Resource Assessment (FRA 2025).
