The first cluster consists of one sub-district, the second cluster consists of three sub-districts, the third cluster consists of two sub-districts, the fourth cluster consists of five sub-districts, and the fifth cluster consists of four sub-districts, which are all included in the distribution of clusters. A map illustrating the degree of urgency associated with forest degradation is produced as a result of this study.
