The direct benefits that human beings derive from wetlands include production of fish, timber and fresh water.
The indirect benefits include flood control, recharge of aquifer and storm protection. Wetlands have the capacity to retain excess floodwater during heavy rainfall. Wetland vegetations help control soil erosion, thus stabilising the shore line and protecting human lives from storm.
