This book presents various aspects of agroforestry research and
development, as well as the latest trends in degraded landscape
management. Over the last four decades, agroforestry research
(particularly on degraded landscapes) has evolved into an essential
problem-solving science, e.g. in terms of sustaining agricultural
productivity, improving soil health and biodiversity, enhancing
ecosystem services, supporting carbon sequestration and mitigating
climate change. This book examines temperate and tropical
agroforestry systems around the world, focusing on traditional and
modern practices and technologies used to rehabilitate degraded
lands. It covers the latest research advances, trends and
challenges in the utilization and reclamation of degraded lands,
e.g. urban and peri-urban agroforestry, reclamation of degraded
landscapes, tree-based multi-enterprise agriculture, domestication
of high-value halophytes, afforestation of coastal areas,
preserving mangroves and much more. Given its scope, the book
offers a valuable asset for a broad range of stakeholders including
farmers, scientists, researchers, educators, students,
development/extension agents, environmentalists, policy/decision
makers, and government and non-government organizations.
