Partial recovery of large seed arrival following ecological restoration in fragmented tropical rainforests

Oikos, EarlyView.
Forest restoration success depends crucially on the reinitiation of ecological processes such as seed arrival that drive natural regeneration. We know little about whether, by increasing and diversifying local seed sources to alleviate seed limitation, and attracting animal frugivores to alleviate dispersal limitation, restoration could shift seed ...

The importance of biodiversity components differs among wood‐based material Nature's contributions to people (NCP) in a tropical montane ecosystem

Oikos, EarlyView.
Biodiversity can influence forest productivity, but this does not necessarily translate into higher provision of wood‐based Nature's contributions to people (NCP), as only a subset of the wood produced is used for each NCP. Biodiversity–NCP relationships therefore require further assessment.

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

Evaluation of the genetic potential of coffee trees in agroforestry systems with rubber trees

Bragantia
ABSTRACT This study sought to identify superior genotypes of Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora suitable for agroforestry systems. The experiment took place in two distinct environments: monoculture and an agroforestry system featuring rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis).

On the need for biocultural approaches to restoration

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological restoration is gaining global momentum for climate mitigation, yet its prevailing approach, often rooted in Western technical science, frequently appears neutral while inadvertently reinforcing power imbalances and sidelining local knowledge.

Decaffeinated? Situation, Trends, and Prospects for Smallholder Coffee Production in Rwanda [PDF]

Most Rwandan coffee is currently grown and processed the same way it was a decade ago. Consequently, Rwanda’s coffee production and marketing system has not been able to keep up with changes in the global market for high quality coffee.

Innovation in the Production of Coffee Tree Leaf Beverages

Revista de Gestão Social e Ambiental
Objective: The objective of this study was to process coffee leaves to obtain a product with greater added value.   Theoretical Framework: In this study, the processing of coffee leaves was like the processing of yerba mate to produce chimarrão. The enzyme inactivation technique is applied prior to drying, the leaves are exposed to a flame for a ...

Assessing trade‐off risk between crop production and vertebrate biodiversity in three African countries

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Governments worldwide are committed to eliminating hunger and conserving biodiversity, reflected in United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 2 (Zero Hunger) and 15 (Life on Land). Expanding agricultural lands to meet growing food demands often threatens biodiversity, creating potential trade‐offs between these objectives. To understand the

Mineral nutrition studies of coffee trees XXX: sand culture tecnique for growing coffee trees

, 1974
No intuito de cultivar o cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) em solução nutritiva foi idealizado um sistema automático, utilizando como substrato quartzo moido e solução nutritiva. O sistema foi construído de modo a necessitar o mínimo de mão de obra para manutenção, aliado a um baixo custo de construção (Cr$ 25.000,00).
