Accelerating Agriculture Productivity Improvement in Bangladesh: Mitigation co-benefits of nutrients and water use efficency
Wood has been used as fuel for millennia, meeting humanity’s basic needs for cooking, boiling water, lighting and heating. Today woodfuel, i.e. firewood and charcoal, accounts for around 10% of global energy supply, but it dominates energy provision in many parts of the developing world. In parti...

Charcoal: a driver of dryland forest degradation in Africa? ICRAF Factsheet
The climate-smart agriculture (CSA) concept reflects an ambition to improve the integration of agriculture development and climate responsiveness. It aims to achieve food security and broader development goals under a changing climate and increasing food demand.
CSA initiatives sustainably incre...
The early studies of the ASB Partnership for the Tropical Forest Margins stratified the domain for study into stages of a generic transition pathway that suggested a strongly non-linear trajectory of change. In this scheme, a phase of degradation of aboveground vegetation, based on over-logging o...

Agroforestry and other tree-based systems (wood lots, afforestation) can contribute to Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) in two ways: 1) as part of REDD+ under certain forest definitions; and / or 2) as part of a strategy for achieving REDD+ in landscapes. In th...
