An equally important good thing about roads is that is limits deforestation, but roads can also allow people to what used to be inaccessible land (17). “With all the free areas being created, things like improved road systems and economic stimulating businesses can be built” (Pro).

Similarly, food is extremely important and when deforestation happens there is more land area available which allows for more food to be grown, which is a necessity (Causes). With all the cutting of the trees, many areas have been turned into land for cattle grazing. Cattle grazing has helped the economy because of all the meat they’re exporting to different parts of the world, which is why they 're the second largest exporter of beef (Driscoll and Flynn). Once deforestation happens animals start grazing which is very helpful. Animal grazing makes it easier for researchers to find new or thought to be extinct animals, and endangered animals. Doing this can make a very safe and reliable habitat for all of the animals (17). Using the open land for agriculture allows many people to get jobs to support their family and their daily needs, lots of hard work comes with this job (Causes). Agricultural uses may have a few benefits, but it can also do very harmful things to the
