What is Reforestation?

Hi Shivangi,

Reforestation is the replanting of plants on the land which was destroyed by mankind. In reforestation the trees of the same species which were present before deforestation are planted again. In order to maintain ecological balance, the same count of plants must be planted.

On the other hand, 

Afforestation is the process of planting or adding trees in an area where there was never a forest or plantation.
