Forestation surrounding, or upstream of a farm can impact on the farm in two main ways: Increased forestry (especially conifers) can lead to an increase in the rate of run off from the ground due to he lack of ground vegetation This in turn leads to larger floods in times of rain, and lower flows in times of drought (as the grounds capacity for holding water is reduced) This is especially so in areas where the trees have replaced moorland areas In some areas of new forestry, large quantities of fertilisers (phosphates and nitrates) are added to the soil A percentage of these can wash into the water courses, leading to increased risk of algal blooms and the problems associated with them

Terms & Glossary
Forestry is the science or skill of growing and taking care of trees in forests, especially in order to obtain wood. the science or skill of looking after large areas of trees. Management of forested land (see forest), together with associated waters and wasteland, primarily for harvesting timber but also for conservation and recreation purposes. The science of forestry is built around the principle of multiple-use land management, though the harvesting and replanting of timber are the primary activities. The main objective is to maintain a continuous supply of timber through carefully planned harvest and replacement. The forest manager is also responsible for the application of other land controls, including the protection of wildlife and the implementation of programs to protect the forest from weeds, insects, fungal diseases (see fungus), erosion, and fire. The planned management of forests originated in early medieval Europe, where laws regulated the felling of timber and the use of forests for hunting. In the 19th century private forestry schools were established in Europe; and in 1891 the U.S. government authorized its first reserves of forested land. During the 20th century many nations have undertaken reforestation or afforestation programs
