Solomon Islands Forests and Logging

Solomon Islands is a tropical country in the south pacific which has the second largest virgin forest to Papua New Guinea. Logging development in the Solomon's started about 1990s when the Asian Countries own logging companies invest into the Solomon's economy with the assistance of the National government.

Since those days-Solomon Islands Virgin Forests started to decline in-terms of plants species- tree quality-and tree sizes. Such impacts causes looses of plants species that were culturally important and medically used for Medicines in Solomon Islands. Currently, the Forests level in Solomon Islands is below the normal or natural standard means in many and huge land mass were covered only with secondary Forests.
