Abstract
Niue is the worlds largest and highest single coral atoll, yet in contrast is the smallest selfgoverning nation. It is an unique island with an elevated rugged coastline and extensive forest cover, which comprises 65% to 70% of the land area. Niue is primarily an agricultural-based economy. Land degradation as a result of deforestation in Niue potentially places threats on soil fertility, structure and bio-diversity.
