Teak, a highly prized tropical hardwood, is used extensively for outdoor furniture. Unfortunately, teak is grown in only a few locations throughout the world and native trees are becoming scarce due to repeated harvesting and the clear-cutting of forests. Logging teak forests disrupts the natural habitat of many other species and reduces local biodiversity. Foresters, seeking a reasonable solution to this problem, might consider ALL BUT

Answer:

The correct option is C. Growing farm crops in greenhouses instead of on land previously home to teak trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Teak is known to be the finest quality wood and is expensive. Naturally, it can take 40 years for a tree to produce the teak wood.

As it is the finest quality wood, scientists should try their best to replant the Teak trees.

Growing farm crops in greenhouses is an expensive method and also, it is not a reliable solution to the problem mentioned in the question. Hence, Option C is the answer.

Rest all options can increase the productivity of teak.
