An integrative approach to silvopastoral system design: perspectives, potentials and principles
ABSTRACT Silvopastoral systems have complex impacts on a diverse range of outcomes, making it essential to design these systems using an integrative approach to maximise positive impacts to farms. This paper comprises firstly a systematic review of global silvopastoral processes, and secondly stakeholder‐driven synthesis of key opportunities and ...

ABSTRACT The feasibility of using a non‐destructive soil testing approach, like diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), has rarely been explored in intensively managed smallholder farms. Hence, we examined the applicability of calibrated DRS models for testing soil samples collected before and after different nutrient treatments were allotted at three ...

Picking pithy plants: Pith selectivity by wild white‐faced capuchin monkeys, Cebus imitator
“When and why do white‐faced capuchins eat plant pith? We investigated how ecological variables and plant traits shape patterns of pith consumption. We find that pith foraging occurs primarily during seasonal transitions, and that dietary pith species contain relatively more pith, are softer, and have a different odor profile than non‐dietary species.“
