Estimating the exact number of trees killed by Agent Orange during the Vietnam War is challenging, but it is believed that millions of acres of forest were defoliated. The herbicide, which contained dioxins, was sprayed extensively to eliminate jungle cover for enemy forces. It is estimated that about 3 million acres of forest and crops were destroyed, significantly impacting the ecosystem and leading to long-term environmental consequences. The effects of this deforestation are still felt today.
