Any advantages are short-term advantages. Forests may be cleared to create grazing lands for goats, sheep, or cattle, but in tropical rainforests, the soil is very thin and does not support grazing for more than a few years.

Trees may be cut down and the timber sold for export. Some types of wood fetch a high price. Unless there is some regulation to ensure a sustainable harvest, this can cause deforestation.
