Book Synopsis Agroforestry in Europe by : Antonio Rigueiro-Rodríguez
Download or read book Agroforestry in Europe written by Antonio Rigueiro-Rodríguez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-09 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agroforestry has come of age during the past three decades. The age-old practice of growing trees and crops and sometimes animals in interacting combinations – that has been ignored in the single-commodity-oriented agricultural and forestry development paradigms – has been brought into the realm of modern land-use. Today agroforestry is well on its way to becoming a specialized science at a level similar to those of crop science and forestry science. To most land-use experts, however, agroforestry has a tropical connotation. They consider agroforestry as something that can and can only be identified with the tropics. That is a wrong perception. While it is true that the tropics, compared to the temperate regions, have a wider array of agroforestry systems and hold greater promise for potential agroforestry interventions, it is also true that agroforestry has several opportunities in the temperate regions too. Indeed, the role of agroforestry is now recognized in Europe as exemplified by this book, North America, and elsewhere in the temperate zone. Current interest in ecosystem management in industrialized countries strongly suggests that there is a need to embrace and apply agroforestry principles to help mitigate the environmental problems caused or exacerbated by commercial agricultural and forestry production enterprises.
Book Synopsis Agroforestry-Based Ecosystem Services by : Meine van Noordwijk
Download or read book Agroforestry-Based Ecosystem Services written by Meine van Noordwijk and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a dynamic interface between agriculture and forestry, agroforestry has only recently been formally recognized as a relevant part of land use with 'trees outside forest' in important parts of the world--but not everywhere yet. The Sustainable Development Goals have called attention to the need for the multifunctionality of landscapes that simultaneously contribute to multiple goals. In the UN decade of landscape restoration, as well as in response to the climate change urgency and biodiversity extinction crisis, an increase in global tree cover is widely seen as desirable, but its management by farmers or forest managers remains contested. Agroforestry research relates tree-soil-crop-livestock interactions at the plot level with landscape-level analysis of social-ecological systems and efforts to transcend the historical dichotomy between forest and agriculture as separate policy domains. An 'ecosystem services' perspective quantifies land productivity, flows of water, net greenhouse gas emissions, and biodiversity conservation, and combines an 'actor' perspective (farmer, landscape manager) with that of 'downstream' stakeholders (in the same watershed, ecologically conscious consumers elsewhere, global citizens) and higher-level regulators designing land-use policies and spatial zoning.
Book Synopsis Agroforestry - The Future of Global Land Use by : P.K. Ramachandran Nair

This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a solid body of the current state of knowledge on the various themes and activities in agroforestry worldwide. It is organized into three sections: the Introduction section consists of the summaries of six keynote speeches at the 2nd World Congress of Agroforestry held in Nairobi, Kenya, in 2009; that is followed by two sections of peer-reviewed thematic chapters grouped as “Global Perspectives” (seven chapters) and “Regional Perspectives” (eleven chapters), authored by professional leaders in their respective agroforestry-related fields worldwide. A total of 130 professionals from institutions in 33 countries in both developing and the industrialized temperate regions of the world contributed to the book as chapter authors and/or reviewers. Thus, the book presents a comprehensive and authoritative account of the global picture of agroforestry today.

Download or read book Emerging Issues in Forest Policy written by Peter N. Nemetz and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, forests have played a central role in thedevelopment of human civilization -- providing everything from fuel andstructural materials to a multitude of paper products. It is, however,becoming increasingly apparent that the forests and their wealth ofresources bear directly upon many of the most pressing social,economic, and environmental concerns of our time. This volume draws together forty of the foremost experts in forestpolicy to address the diverse range of issues which characterize theintimate relationship between forests and humankind. These include theregional and global environment, timber supply, competitiveness andinternational trade, social impacts, multiple and competing resourceuse, and the Third World. Five critical questions summarize the focus of this work: - To what extent is the direct utilization of forests contributingto the decline of this vital resource, and how does the loss of globalforests affect essential components of our ecosystem? - How can we formulate and implement policies which will guaranteethe continued supply of adequate forest resources for this and futuregenerations, and, in particular, how critical are societal concepts ofownership and tenure to the achievement of this goal? - How crucial are technological change and international trade insustaining a healthy forest sector and dependent economy? - How can we remedy the negative social impacts of our foresteconomy and integrate the management of our forests with otherresources essential to human welfare? - What are the central issues that affect forest practice andutilization in the Third World? This comprehensive and timely book sheds light on many of thefundamental questions affecting one of the world's most importantresources.

Book Synopsis Ecosystem Services in Agricultural and Urban Landscapes by : Stephen Wratten
Download or read book Ecosystem Services in Agricultural and Urban Landscapes written by Stephen Wratten and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-01-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecosystem services are the resources and processes supplied by natural ecosystems which benefit humankind (for example, pollination of crops by insects, or water filtration by wetlands). They underpin life on earth, provide major inputs to many economic sectors and support our lifestyles. Agricultural and urban areas are by far the largest users of ecosystems and their services and (for the first time) this book explores the role that ecosystem services play in these managed environments. The book also explores methods of evaluating ecosystem services, and discusses how these services can be maintained and enhanced in our farmlands and cities. This book will be useful to students and researchers from a variety of fields, including applied ecology, environmental economics, agriculture and forestry, and also to local and regional planners and policy makers.
