Adsorption of humic substances on ferrihydrite affects its use as iron source by plants
Agricultural and Food Science, 2020 Poorly crystalline Fe oxides are sources of Fe to plants. The adsorption of humic substances (HS) on these oxides alters its reactivity and stability in soils, and thus may affect Fe mobilization and uptake by plants from these compounds. This work aimed

Prioritizing enablers for effective community forestry in Cameroon
Ecology and Society, 2018 Cameroon, in its Forestry, Wildlife and Fisheries Law 94/01 of 1994, supported local communities to engage in managing forests and benefit from them economically and environmentally. Three main objectives underlie this law: (1) enabling local communities

Community forest governance in Cameroon: a review
Ecology and Society, 2018 There is growing evidence that good community forest (CF) governance is a significant determinant of CF success. We examined the state of CF governance in Cameroon by applying a set of good governance principles to 36 case studies.

Agroforestry for All – Walnut Agroforestry in Warwickshire
The Organic Grower, 2023 "10% agroforestry land-use mandatory for every organic farm" is the call from the European Organic-PLUS and AGROMIX research projects led by Coventry University's Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience (CAWR). This impact is being discussed by certification bodies and may become UK/EU organic and agroecological standard at the next 'organic-plus'

Probabilistic Assessment of Investment Options in Honey Value Chains in Lamu County, Kenya
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2018 Designing and implementing biodiversity-based value chains can be a complex undertaking, especially in places where outcomes are uncertain and risks of project failure and cost overruns are high. We used the Stochastic Impact Evaluation (SIE) approach to

Effects of agroforestry on farm biodiversity in the UK. [PDF]
, 1999 One advantage claimed for agroforestry is that it can bring onto farmland some of the biodiversity benefits associated with woodlands. The aim of this paper is to review recent research in order to describe the potential impact of agroforestry systems

Flood risk reduction and flow buffering as ecosystem services – Part 2: Land use and rainfall intensity effects in Southeast Asia [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017 Watersheds buffer the temporal pattern of river flow relative to the temporal pattern of rainfall. This ecosystem service is inherent to geology and climate, but buffering also responds to human use and misuse of the landscape.

Who Gets to Adopt? Contested Values Constrain Just Transitions to Agroforestry
Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021 Agroforestry is often promoted as a multi-benefit solution to increasing the resilience of agricultural landscapes. Yet, there are many obstacles to transitioning agricultural production systems to agroforestry. Research on agroforestry transitions often
