The breakdown of huge trees is easier but the time taken for their huge growth is vast. Even big trees are helpful in triggering the rainfall and also maintain atmospheric moisture level. So cutting down bug trees has more disadvantages.

Minimize deforestation: Deforestation is full fledged in some countries due to growth of cities, town and also requirement to occupy agricultural or forest land for industrial purposes.
