If you are talking about OSRS's Forestry, the point is most certainly to give OSRS players a taste of RS3 style WC and community training activities like Evil Tree.
Of course there is always a point to get more xp training with more players. We have a lot of such communal activities in RS3. OSRS players and Jmods like them so they added them. More xp is definitely a good reward for some players. As for gp/item/gameplay rewards OSRS Forestry seems to be lacking comparing to RS3, but this is almost always the case in that game because it is basically a bunch of unrelated game modes and minigames. It is hard to add rewards to a piece of content (especially the neglected skilling content) and make them useful in the game modes.
Now if you are looking at RS3, it doesn't need Forestry because it already has a lot of such content, and when they bundle them up with other skills/activities because they can and OSRS can't, they have a lot of rewards to offer to different kinds of content and different players seeking different kinds of rewards for different skills/activities.
