Forest area as % of land area AG.LND.FRST.ZS
Grenada's forest area was 52.06% in 2025, ranked 46th globally. This represents a 0.0% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Grenada's forest area stood at 52.06% in 2025, a decline of +0.00% from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 52.06% by 2025. Grenada ranked 46th globally.
Grenada’s forest area has remained remarkably stable over the 35‑year series, recorded at 52.06 percent of total land area in both the earliest observation in 1990 and the most recent estimate for 2025, which also marks the all‑time peak in 2023 and the all‑time trough in 2025. This constancy places Grenada at rank 46 globally, closely aligned with peers such as the Cayman Islands (52.22 percent) and the Marshall Islands (52.22 percent), suggesting that the island nation’s forest cover has neither expanded nor contracted despite regional pressures from agriculture and development. The lack of fluctuation may reflect effective land‑use policies or limited deforestation drivers, yet it also indicates little progress in reforestation initiatives that could enhance ecosystem services. Continued monitoring and targeted afforestation programs will be essential if Grenada aims to raise its forest share beyond the current plateau and improve resilience to climate‑related risks.
