5. CONCLUSION
In Yerla, Nagpur, Maharashtra, India, over 20 different tree species were counted in the current study to determine the
total organic carbon stock. Ficus religiosa (peepal), Azadirachta indica (neem) type 3, Mangifera indica (mango), and
Tectona grandis (teak) have the highest carbon capture/carbon sequestration potential among the local trees. It is
discovered that 20 well-grown tree species have an average standing storage of organic carbon of roughly 601 kg. The
greatest method for absorbing carbon is via developing long-lasting carbon pools, and the best restoration strategy is
to establish protected natural vegetation.The study may be used to determine the Total Carbon Stock (TCS) in Nagpur
and other cities or forest cover using a non-destructive technique.
