Is agroforestry likely to reduce deforestation? Most agroforesters for the past 15 years have said "yes", some adding "by about 5 ha of reduced deforestation per ha of agroforestry adopted". The authors argue, nevertheless, that in many cases the answer is likely to be either "it depends" or even...

There is a range of forest management systems between pure extraction and plantation systems. Such ‘‘intermediate systems’’ range from wild forests modified for increased production of selected products to anthropogenic forests with a high-density of valuable species growing within a relatively d...

Researchers have long argued that improved livestock technologies and intensification will reduce the pressure on Latin America's forests. This article combines economic theory with insights from seven case studies to examine under what conditions technological change will reduce (or increase) fo...

Policy makers can improve the likelihood of success for REDD+ initiatives by incorporating success factors identified through decades of research on community forest management. These include sufficient size and clear boundaries of forests, predictability of benefit flows, local autonomy in desig...
