This collection features four peer-reviewed literature reviews on
tropical agroforestry. The first chapter addresses the challenges
associated with incorporating agroforestry into agroecological
intensification and sustainable landscapes. The chapter also
considers the challenge of developing policies in support of
agroforestry, and the challenge of developing agroforestry at
scale. The second chapter reviews to what extent agroforests are
able to meet the objectives of sustainable forest management,
focusing on biodiversity conservation, supply of forest products
and carbon capture. The chapter also highlights the potential
limits of system intensification in delivering ecosystem goods and
services. The third chapter presents an overview of the ecosystem
services that can be delivered by tropical agroforestry systems.
The chapter presents practical approaches for trade-off analysis
between ecosystem services and plant biodiversity for better design
(or redesign) and how management of agroforestry systems can be
optimised. The final chapter summarises the importance of
cocoa-based agroforestry systems to global agricultural landscapes.
The chapter reviews the different cocoa system technologies (e.g.
cocoa-timber systems) and presents a four-step guide for analysing
the shade canopy of shaded cocoa systems to ensure a diverse,
resilient agroforestry system is in place.
