Forest inventories conducted in Indonesia (Berau District, East Kalimantan) highlighted the main festures of the Dipterocarpaceae primary forest. Dipterocarpaceae species accounted for 25% of the stand (diameter > 10 cm), 50% of the basal area and 60% of the standing volume. In three primary fore...

To understand the potential role of forest products in household livelihoods, a study of the woodcraft industry in Zimbabwe was initiated. The woodcraft industry has increased steadily since the late 1980s. The factors driving the upsurge in the woodcraft industry are: (1) the increased demand by...

Preliminary results of a field study in Pucallpa, Peruvian Amazon, to determine the establishment of six native forest tree species of economic value on degraded areas abandoned after intensive past agricultural use are reported. Study sites were on slash-and-burn farms partially covered with aba...

In the context of the ongoing expansion of forest plantations of exotic tree species in the tropics, a critical assessment was made of the risk of insect pest outbreaks in exotics. To date, there have been two opposing views: that plantations of exotic species are at greater risk compared to indi...

This paper deals with foraging behaviour of cattle grazing semi-arid rangelands in the Sahel of Mali. It discusses the location of study site, vegetation in the grazing orbit, herd management and livestock behaviour. Results on seasonal variation in feed supply, selection of the annual grazing or...

Eleven Sesbania sesban and three S. goetzei accessions were evaluated for dry matter (DM) yield in response to phosphorus (P) application and fodder quality on an acidic Nitosol at Soddo, in the Ethiopian highlands. The soil at this site is known to be P deficient and to have high ability to fix ...

Over the past 4 decades there has been considerable expansion in the plantation forestry along the eastern seaboard of South Africa. In particular there have been significant increases in eucalypt, and to a less extent, pine plantations on soils of a light sandy texture along the Zululand coastal...

Acidification of soil profiles from legume and N fertilized crops is a serious sustainability threat. Under tropical conditions of Northeast Thailand and Northern Australia, acidification to >90 cm has been recorded in Stylosanthes and Leucaena based pasture systems. Acidification has also been m...

The genetic variable of seven Phaseolus taxa has been evaluated on the basis of molecular data and the results have used to clarify the phyletic relationships between several taxa of the P. coccineus L. complex. Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) from 33 populations was digested with six restriction endonuc...
