Knowledge Systems in Agroforestry
Pacific Islands agroforestry has evolved into sustainable, diverse and productive a land use systems in many areas. We marvel at these systems, and the scientific world is trying to catch up with the traditional knowledge. At the same time, Pacific Islands farmers are abandoning their agroforestry systems in great numbers. It is mainly intensified agriculture for cash crop production that follo...
متن کاملCarbon sequestration in tropical agroforestry systems
Removing atmospheric carbon (C) and storing it in the terrestrial biosphere is one of the options, which have been proposed to compensate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Agricultural lands are believed to be a major potential sink and could absorb large quantities of C if trees are reintroduced to these systems and judiciously managed together with crops and/or animals. Thus, the importance of ...
متن کاملBirds as predators in tropical agroforestry systems.
Insectivorous birds reduce arthropod abundances and their damage to plants in some, but not all, studies where predation by birds has been assessed. The variation in bird effects may be due to characteristics such as plant productivity or quality, habitat complexity, and/or species diversity of predator and prey assemblages. Since agroforestry systems vary in such characteristics, these systems...
متن کاملAgroforestry systems and environmental quality: introduction.
Investments in agroforestry research during the past three decades-albeit modest-have yielded significant gains in understanding the role of trees on farmlands, and the ecological and economic advantages of integrated farming systems. While early research focused mostly on farm or local levels, broader-level ecosystem services of agroforestry systems (AFS) have raised high expectations in recen...
متن کاملValuing Agroforestry Systems Methods and Applications
Agroforestry, the purposeful growing of trees and crops in interacting combinations, began to attain prominence in the late 1970s. when the international scientific community embraced its potentials in the tropics and recognized it as a practice in search of science. During the 1990s the relevance of agroforestry for solving problems related to deterioration of family farms, increased soil eros...
