What Is Natural Vegetation?

Answer Question

7 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Natural vegetation refers to the garment of plants and trees that exists in the area before it is modified by Man for activities such as farming, mining, lumbering and industrial, economic and urban development.

    The presence or absence of natural vegetation helps to give the landscape of a region its particular appearance, example the landscape of the thickly forested interior of Sarawak appears very different from that of the arid landscape in the Middle East.The composition of a particular type of natural vegetation depends on the interaction of the various elements in the environment or habitat, such as relief, climate, soil, drainage and other related features.

    When natural vegetation is cleared by Man o grow crops of any kind, the new vegetation is known as cultivated vegetation. Our market gardens, orchards and plantations on which are grown all kinds of cereals, beverages, fibers, raw materials, fruits and vegetables all form part of cultivated vegetation.

    When natural vegetation such as forests are burnt down by forest fires or human activities, and eventually regenerates after a lapse of many years, is called secondary forest.
    Man has been using and clearing natural vegetation since human existence. Thus very little remains of the original vegetation is left.

        Natural vegetation grows naturally in the environment by themselves without being planted through human activities such as farming and economic and urban development.

          Vegetation is a general term for the plant life of a region; it refers to the ground cover provided by plants. It is a general term, without specific reference to particular tax, life forms, structure, spatial extent, or any other specific botanical or geographic characteristics. It is broader than the term flora which refers exclusively to species composition. Perhaps the closest synonym is plant community, but vegetation can, and often does, refer to a wider range of spatial scales than that term does, including scales as large as the global. Primeval redwood forests, coastal mangrove stands, sphagnum bogs, desert soil crusts, roadside weed patches, wheat fields, cultivated gardens and lawns; all are encompassed by the term vegetation.

          Do you know that vegetation is different from natural vegetation? Natural vegetation refers to plant community which has grown naturally without aid and has been left undisturbed by humans for along time.Thus, cultivated crops and fruits , orchards form part of vegetation but not natural vegetation.
          The question is about natural vegetation and not vegetation.
