Detailed Solution

Java in Indonesia is where the Dutch started forest management. However, it used to be mostly covered in forests. There, forest management was initiated by the Dutch. They desired Javan timber, much like the British, to construct ships. Java had a population of about 3.4 million people in 1600. They previously engaged in shifting cultivation.
