The increased demand for foods and commercialization of the commodity markets has resulted in enormous interest in arable land resources, leading to a rapid expansion of forest land into arable land. The Sal forests of Bangladesh have been rapidly grabbed into commercial purposes, which made the forests a threatened ecosystem. Therefore, the objective of the study was to identify the economic, social and ecological impacts of land grabbing on the sustainable development of Sal forests in Bangladesh. Using different qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques from the Madhupur and Bhawal Sal forests of Bangladesh, the study clearly identified that the forestland grabbing has taken place with the assistance of state institutions. The economic outcomes of forestland grabbing were mainly seized by the state institutions and local elites, and a number of industries have been set up in and around the Sal forest areas which created huge pressure on forest biodiversity. Consequently, the ecological analysis showed that a significant number of plant species had lost and the remaining species were facing a critical situation. The study also found a violation of human rights and displacement of almost all ethnic respondents from their ancestral forestland. Therefore, the negligible economic gain of Sal forest land grabbing has not taken precedence over social and ecological consideration; a coordinated approach leading by the government level could stop land grabbing and ensure the sustainable development of Sal forests in Bangladesh.

对食品的需求增加以及商品市场的商业化，导致人们对耕地资源产生了极大的兴趣，导致林地迅速扩大为耕地。孟加拉国的萨尔（Sal）森林已迅速进入商业目的，这使该森林成为受威胁的生态系统。因此，该研究的目的是确定抢占土地对孟加拉国萨尔森林可持续发展的经济，社会和生态影响。该研究使用孟加拉国Madhupur和Bhawal Sal森林的不同定性和定量数据收集技术，清楚地确定了在国家机构的协助下进行了林地抢夺。抢夺林地的经济成果主要被国家机构和地方精英抓住，萨尔（Sal）森林地区及其周围建立了许多行业，这给森林生物多样性带来了巨大压力。因此，生态学分析表明，大量植物物种已经丧失，其余物种正面临严峻形势。该研究还发现，几乎所有族裔受访者都从其祖先的林地中侵犯了人权并流离失所。因此，Sal林地抢占的微不足道的经济收益并未优先于社会和生态方面的考虑。由政府领导的协调方法可以停止征地，并确保孟加拉国萨尔森林的可持续发展。生态学分析表明，大量植物物种已经丧失，其余物种正面临严峻形势。该研究还发现，几乎所有族裔受访者都从其祖先的林地中侵犯了人权并流离失所。因此，Sal林地抢占的微不足道的经济收益并没有优先于社会和生态因素。由政府领导的协调方法可以停止征地，并确保孟加拉国萨尔森林的可持续发展。生态学分析表明，大量植物物种已经丧失，其余物种正面临严峻形势。该研究还发现，几乎所有族裔受访者都从其祖先的林地中侵犯了人权并流离失所。因此，Sal林地抢占的微不足道的经济收益并没有优先于社会和生态因素。由政府领导的协调方法可以停止征地，并确保孟加拉国萨尔森林的可持续发展。萨尔（Sal）林地抢占的微不足道的经济收益没有优先于社会和生态考虑；由政府领导的协调方法可以停止征地，并确保孟加拉国萨尔森林的可持续发展。萨尔（Sal）林地抢占的微不足道的经济收益没有优先于社会和生态方面的考虑；由政府领导的协调方法可以停止征地，并确保孟加拉国萨尔森林的可持续发展。
