It is pointed out in the passage that a cattle rangeland carved out of a tropical forest ----.
Commercial logging, mostly for export abroad,
accounts for 21% of tropical deforestation. Most
tropical countries allow commercial logging to
proceed at a much faster rate than is sustainable. For
example, in parts of Malaysia, current logging
practices remove the forest almost twice as fast as
the sustainable rate. If this continues, Malaysia will
soon experience shortages of timber and will have to
start importing logs. When that happens, Malaysia
will have lost future revenues, both from logging and
from harvesting other forest products, from its newly
vanished forests. Moreover, in addition to commercial
logging, cattle ranching also causes deforestation. In
fact, approximately 12% of tropical rainforest
destruction is done to provide open rangeland for
cattle. After the forests are cleared, cattle can be
raised on the land for six to ten years, after which
time shrubby plants take over the range. Much of the
beef raised on these ranches, which are often owned
by foreign companies, is exported to fast-food
restaurants.
