Led by dedicated faculty, participants conducted hands-on exercises in forest inventory, ecological assessments, tree measurement techniques, and silvicultural applications across diverse Sri Lankan forest sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This dynamic program bridged theory and practice, equipping students with tools for precise mensuration, habitat evaluation, and sustainable forest management. The experience ignited a passion for forestry science and environmental guardianship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/41.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"447\" height=\"335\" data-id=\"4998\" src=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/41.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/41.png 447w, https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/41-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 447px) 100vw, 447px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/42.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"260\" height=\"347\" data-id=\"4997\" src=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/42.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4997\" srcset=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/42.png 260w, https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/42-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/43.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"619\" height=\"826\" data-id=\"4999\" src=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/43.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/43.jpg 619w, https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/43-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/44.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"535\" height=\"401\" data-id=\"5000\" src=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/44.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/44.png 535w, https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/44-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/45.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"324\" height=\"432\" data-id=\"4996\" src=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/45.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/45.png 324w, https:\/\/science.sjp.ac.lk\/fes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/45-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First-year students enrolled in the Practical Module in Silviculture, Ecology, and Forest Mensuration recently honed their skills through intensive field &hellip;
