Abstract:
This study aims to analyze agroforestry management systems for coffee plant species under pine tree stands in the forest area in Babadan Village at KPH Malang, East Java and to analyze the contribution of pine-coffee agroforestry income. The agroforestry management system applied by the respondents in Babadan Village RPH Wagir BKPH Kepanjen is an agroforestry agroforestry pattern with arabica coffee plants combined with pine trees. The spacing between the pine trees and the pine trees in the two plots is 3 x 2 m², while the distance between the pine trees and the coffee plants is 1.5 m and the distance between the coffee plants and the coffee plants is 3 x 2 m². The results of direct interviews with all coffee subscribers, namely the number of results from coffee production divided by Perhutani, where 29 coffee members received 70% income, namely Rp216,580,000 / year, while Perhutani received 30% income worth Rp.92.820.000 / year. So the average individual coffee subscriber earns an income of Rp7,468,276 / year from the coffee production. Agroforestry's contribution to household income is 33% with a value of Rp. 351,106,000 / year with an average income of Rp12,107,103 / year.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sistem pengelolaan agroforestri jenis tanaman kopi dibawah tegakan pohon pinus pada kawasan hutan di Desa Babadan pada KPH Malang Jawa Timur dan menganalisis kontribusi pendapatan agroforestri pinus-kopi.

AbstractFour land use options—annual cropping, agroforestry, agrihorticulture, and agrosilviculture—were tried on a Land Capability Class IVs Alfisol under rainfed conditions to find a farming system that would be profitable and sustainable. The agrihorticultural system required more cash input but gave a value/cost ratio of 2.16 compared with 1.95 with annual cropping, 1.69 with agroforestry and 1.52 with agrosilviculture. Runoff was 4.9% in the agrihorticultural system, and 10.6% with agroforesty. Economic and soil health considerations led to the conclusion that the agrihorticultural system would be a sustainable land use option for the semi-arid Alfisol However, other options also are profitable, with value/cost ratios of more than 1.50. Therefore, land users can choose among several systems, depending on their desired production level and their investment capacity.

Abstract:
Agroforestry systems have been used from a long time ago. The traditional agroforestry concept and knowledge of integration of the trees in the farm have been passed from one generation to another, especially in the South Asian countries. The study is aimed at collecting information on agroforestry practices prevailing in SAARC countries. Information related to prevailing practices of agroforestry was collected from reviewing literature for each country differently. In Afghanistan, the Government has given the seedlings of trees to grow along with the agricultural land. Multistoried agroforestry system with integration of other plants in different spatial designs is mostly used in Bangladesh. Shifting cultivation is the traditional system, integration of crop production, grazing animals, and forest areas in Bhutan is practiced. Being the first and second country to formulate the Agroforestry policy, both India and Nepal respectively follows a traditional system along with some research-based agroforestry system. Pakistan mostly used the farm-based agroforestry system while in Maldives and Srilanka, Coconut based agroforestry system is used mostly. The communities of the SAARC countries have improved livelihood through the generation of the multi-product through the introduction of the new agroforestry systems. The different systems applied in the SAARC countries should be explored and the issues need to be resolved by the formulation of the policies, conduct research, extensions, and training related to the advancement of the Agroforestry. The knowledge and concept of the different agroforestry systems should be disseminated and other systems should be developed from the consultation with the farmers.

Abstract:
Indonesian agroforestry has been developed along the history, since been reported that home garden was practiced from 3,000 BC in Java Island. However, agroforestry practices were recognized to have less contribution to people welfare and environmental sustainability. Bibliometric and literature studies extracting baseline information from thousands of publications were done to analyse history and future projection of Indonesian agroforestry. Research and publication on Indonesian agroforestry is steadily increasing in number and quality. Topics related with traditional land use system and ecosystem services were frequently found, and therefore classified as motor themes. There were 16 most attractive commodities stated in the publications, including palm oil and rubber. Rubber agroforest was the only system that pay interest in several decades. There were many researches on indigenous agroforestry practices in the islands, but mostly (77%) concentrated in Java Island, especially studying private forest and home garden. The research on the issues of population pressure on forestland and efficient use of resources are the most popular topic in the decades. In the recent decade, broader theme of research was found including climate change and long-term livelihood. Based on the study, indigenous agroforestry is still important subject to study, but future roadmap of agroforestry must be developed by integrating forestry and agriculture approaches.

Abstract:
Cocoa-based agroforests play an important role in farmer livelihood and the global environment; however, despite these facts, their low yields and tree aging put at risk their fate. This project investigated the carbon storage potential, productivity, and economics of different agroforestry arrangements of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) with Melina (Gmelina arborea) trees, in the southwest of Colombia. We established the experiment under a Randomized Complete Blocks design with seven treatments and three repetitions. Different allometric models were tested. Allometric models were made for G. arborea trees with dbh, ranging between 30.24 and 50.11 cm. The total carbon accumulation fluctuated between 49.2 (Treatment 4) and 88.5 t ha−1 (Treatment 2), soil organic matter (SOM) ranged between 9 and 17%, bulk density decreased from 0.83 to 0.77 g cm−3. Cocoa yield ranged between 311 kg ha−1 year−1 (Treatment 7, traditional farm) and 922 kg ha−1 year−1 (Treatment 6). Treatment 6 showed the best performance with a net present value (NPV) of COP 1,446,467 (US $337.6), an internal rate of return (IRR) of 42%, and a cost-benefit ratio (B/C) of 1.67%. The benefits of AFS were also evidenced in some of the physical and chemical soil properties. Despite local marginality, these cocoa agroforest arrangements are a viable alternative to improve the traditional (local) cocoa systems because cacao agroforest arrangements increased cacao yield and carbon storage becoming a suitable alternative to improve traditional systems.

<p><strong>English</strong><br />Agroforestry is developed to offer benefits to the nearby communities. It also aims at producing food. Improving food production could be carried out through an extensification program, such as an agro forestry system. Ministry of Forestry also takes a part in national food security through agro forestry where it is an intercropping between food crops and forest trees. Agro forestry is run using a Community-Based Forest Management (PHBM). To integrate forest preservation and community development, PHBM facilitates establishment of Forest Village Community Organization (LMDH). Agro forestry commonly involves LMDH contributes to 41.32 percent of the households’ income and creates employment of 2.39 persons per hectare. Agro forestry is effective in improving income distribution, households’ income, food production, and poverty alleviation in the communities nearby the forests. </p><p> </p><p><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Agroforestry dikembangkan untuk memberi manfaat kepada manusia atau meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Agroforesty utamanya diharapkan dapat membantu mengoptimalkan hasil suatu bentuk penggunaan lahan secara berkelanjutan guna menjamin dan memperbaiki kebutuhan bahan pangan. Tingginya laju pertumbuhan penduduk mengindikasikan meningkatnya pangan yang harus tersedia. Pencapaian sasaran peningkatan produksi pangan dapat dilakukan dengan pola intensifikasi melalui peningkatan teknologi budidaya dan ekstensifikasi yang antara lain dapat dilakukan melalui perluasan areal pertanian di lahan hutan dengan sistim agroforestry. Kementerian kehutanan merupakan salah satu sektor yang ikut bertanggung jawab terhadap ketahanan pangan, yang antara lain mendapat tugas menyediakan lahan hutan untuk pengembangan pangan seperti dalam bentuk tumpangsari atau agroforestri. Tumpangsari atau agroforestry adalah suatu sistem penggunaan lahan dimana pada lahan yang sama ditanam secara bersama-sama tegakan hutan dan tanaman pertanian. Manfaat yang diperoleh dari agroforestry adalah meningkatnya produksi pangan, pendapatan petani, kesempatan kerja dan kualitas gizi masyarakat bagi kesejahteraan petani sekitar hutan. Untuk mengintegrasikan kelestarian fungsi hutan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat dikembangkan konsep hutan kemasyarakatan atau PHBM yang merupakan fasilitasi Lembaga Masyarakat Desa Hutan (LMDH). Perkembangan realisasi agroforestry menunjukan hasil yang sangat menggembirakan. Agroforestry yang pada umumnya melibatkan LMDH mampu memberikan kontribusi pendapatan rumah tangga 41,32 persen dan penyerapan tenaga kerja 2,39 orang per ha. Agroforestry merupakan salah satu sarana yang efektif untuk pemerataan dan tahapan untuk mengatasi kemiskinan di lingkungan masyarakat desa hutan, yang bisa meningkatkan pendapatan dan produksi pangan.</p>

Abstract:
This study reports the results of experiments on growth and physiology of an agricultural annual (French bean) and a young tree (poplar) in relation to limited soil water. Competition and complementarity between the species were evaluated in a model agroforestry experiment. The experiments were carried out in a greenhouse and growth cabinet with plants grown in pots containing sandy-loam compost. The species studied were Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Argus and Populus trichocarpa X P. deltoides cv. Raspalje. The main aim of the study was to characterise the responses of both species to different soil water supply regimes, shoot water supply by roots and chemical signalling from the roots in drying soil and to show how these responses could be used in the selection of suitable agroforestry for dry regions. Bean and poplar plants showed differential growth responses although both the species performed better in mixed stands than in monoculture when soil water was severely limited. Beanplants were more competitive than poplar, although both species showed complementarity in exploration for soil water. As the soil dried leaf water potential declined. Stomatal conductance of both species was more closely related to pre-dawn leaf water potential than to mid-day leaf water potential, indicating the importance of soil water status. Experiments with both vertically and horizontally divided root systems showed that bean and poplar plants with at least half of their root system in moist soil were able to maintain leaf water status as well as plants with all their root systems in moist soil. Furthermore, stomatal conductance and leaf expansion of both species were affected directly by soil drying independent of leaf water potential.

Abstract:
Informal agroforestry is a traditional practice in Solomon Islands, mostly intercropping food crops with fruit trees. Agroforestry systems that intercrop food crops with rows of hardwood species for the purposes of timber production have not been practiced. In response to the common problem that growers of valuable hardwood species such as teak (Tectona grandis) are reluctant to thin their trees, the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) established project FST/2007/020 to develop novel silvicultural systems to overcome this problem. Flueggea flexuosa (flueggea) is a local hardwood species that is widely utilized for housing and fencing applications. The project team established several agroforestry trials testing the hypothesis that teak and flueggea could be successfully grown together with the local tree being progressively harvested for local use, effectively thinning the plantation and allowing the teak to develop through to harvestable size. The trees could be intercropped with food crops allowing for multiple land use and income generating opportunities whilst the trees grow through to maturity. The model was based on the assumption that trees and crops, when properly managed, complement each other rather than compete in the capture and efficient use of available growth resources. This system is a hybrid of the informal agroforestry traditionally practiced in Solomon Islands and the silvicultural management techniques applied to production forestry. However, teak and flueggea have not been previously grown together under an agroforestry regime and little is known of the species interaction or of the effect of growing different food and cash crops in the interrow. Traditional practices for growing food crops in Solomon Islands begin with forest clearance and burning of debris, a slash and burn system. Mounds are made using man-made hoes or picks to give crops better growing spot away from competing weeds and surface water flow during rainy seasons. Most root crops and vegetables are planted in their own blocks and kept separate from other crops. Mixing of food crops is not a usual practice in most parts of the Solomon Islands. Other crops and trees are usually planted at the boundaries of each crop’s patch or along the boundary. Most food crops reach harvesting age after 3 months. When crops are harvested, the whole plant is uprooted, plant parts and debris are piled at a location and are burnt when dry. Where the area available for gardening area is large, the harvested plot is left to fallow but if the available area is small, crops are replanted straight after harvest, leaving no time for the soil to be replenished with nutrients through decomposition of plant materials. Amongst several silvicultural trials established in Solomon Islands, this study focuses on trials established at Ringgi and Poitete which are located at the southern and northern parts of Kolombangara Island in Western Province. These silvicultural trials were established for the purpose of examining the effect of stocking rate and species mix on teak and flueggea growth and on their potential influence over the hybrid agroforestry system. Two mixed species spacing trials and one hybrid agroforestry trial of teak and flueggea were established to test the hybrid model. The two main mixed species spacing trials have 5 treatments with 4 replicates each, treatments are a combination of stocking rate and species mix. The five different treatments include teak being grown as a monoculture (Treatment 1); and then in rows interspersed with 2 rows of flueggea at different stocking rates (Treatments 2, 3, and 4); and alternating rows of teak and flueggea at standard spacing (Treatment 5). The hybrid agroforestry trial was based on the standard 4 x 3 m spacing (Treatment 5) and further intercropped with food crops. Only Treatment 3 (4 x4m) and Treatment 4 (4 x 6m) have wider planting spaces. Standard stocking is 833 stems per hectare for Treatments 1, 2 and 5, and 625 and 416 stems per hectare for Treatments 3 and 4. This research examined the interactions occurring between teak and flueggea, and between teak, flueggea and food crops grown in the inter-row with respect to competition for nitrogen (N), light and water, resource access, changes in system interactions with the development of the canopy, nutrient loss and issues of sustainability related to harvesting of food crops, biogeochemical cycling of carbon (C) and N, root architecture and growth and yield. Total carbon (TC), total nitrogen (TN) and stable isotope δ13C and δ15N, and 15N-labelled tracer were analyzed using field sampled soil, foliage, branch, stem, root and litterfall from the stands to examine soil nutrient uptake, biomass content and cycling as a result of the intraspecific and interspecific interactions with relation to tree growth and productivity of the hybrid system over time and space. Root architecture, tree mean total height (THt) and diameter at breast height (DBH) were measured and assessed over the study period. We investigated the competition between teak and flueggea for N using a 15N-labelled tracer in a field trial in a 2 year old and a 4 year old mixed species stand. The study also reports the acquisition and allocation of TC and C isotope composition (δ13C) in different tree components of teak and flueggea. Seven pairs of trees, one of each species, were isolated using an impermeable membrane 60 cm deep and 15N-labelled tracer was applied to the soil surface. The first four plots were sampled for a period of 18 months and the age of the trees at final excavation was 4 years. The final three plots were sampled for 12 months and the age of the trees at final excavation was 2 years. Each tree was measured, felled and roots excavated, divided into the components: roots, stem, branch and foliage, and then weighed for biomass, samples of each component were oven dried at 60° C to constant weight, ground to a fine powder and analysed for TN, TC, 15N enrichment, and δ13C. There was no significant difference in component 15N enrichment between teak and flueggea at both ages, suggesting that there could be equal uptake of added 15N-labelled tracer by both species. The 15N -labelled tracer concentration was greater in the foliage followed by the root, stem and branch for teak and flueggea. However, stem had significantly greater biomass and therefore had greater 15N enrichment mass (kg) than other components of teak in the 2 years trial and with teak and flueggea at 4 years trial. Approximately 55 % of added 15N tracer was recovered in the 4 years trial and 43 % was recovered in the 2 years trial, suggesting that higher uptake is possible with well-established root structure with age. Although teak had significant growth, 15N tracer uptake and enrichment were not statistically different to those of flueggea which may mean that competition in growth resources was still at minimum stage and growth rates were species specific. TN was not significantly different between teak and flueggea components at age 2 and 4 years and may indicate equal access to available N belowground and with similar allocations. TC was not significantly different between components of teak and flueggea in either age and may indicate equal access to atmospheric C and similar allocations of photosynthates. Higher δ13C in teak components than those of flueggea indicated that teak has higher water use efficiency per kg of tree and does not discriminate against 13C as strongly as flueggea during photosynthesis. Similar 13C values in tree components within the species may be the result of subsequent partitioning of the photosynthates synthesized during photosynthesis. The litter production and C and N cycling in both teak monoculture and teak and flueggea mixed species plantings in the two trials were studied over 18 months period. Leaf litter samples were collected monthly from the five treatments. Monthly litterfall production ranged from 250.51 to 541.61 kg ha-1 depending on treatment and trial. Treatment 1 produced significantly higher total litter than Treatment 4 at Ringgi but this difference will have been due to stocking rates. When based on individual tree productivity, teak in Treatment 4 at both trials produced significantly higher litter per tree than the teak in Treatments 3, 2, 5 and 1 while there was no significant difference with flueggea productivity. Although teak and flueggea TC and TN, and δ13C and δ15N varied over the study period, their mean values were not statistically different except for teak in T4 having significantly lower values at Ringgi. Teak and flueggea C/N ratios were not statistically different at both trials except for flueggea in Treatment 2 at Ringgi which was significantly higher. The highest annual TC and TN returned to the soil from total litterfall were observed in Treatment 1 followed by Treatments 3, 5, 2 and 4 for Ringgi. The highest at Poitete was Treatment 5 followed by Treatments 1, 3, 2 and 4. When comparing each treatment and using individual tree productivity, Treatment 4 produced and returned the significantly highest litter and nutrient than Treatments 3, 2, 5 and 1. Overall, individual tree productivity demonstrated that mixed species stands have significant potential for cycling higher rates of C and N than monoculture teak stand, therefore establishment of mixed species stands especially using the stocking rates of Treatment 3 and Treatment 4 is recommended as a practical measure in forest rehabilitation and agroforestry systems to realize sustainable development of community forestry in the Solomon Islands. The spatial distribution of the root systems of teak and flueggea were examined by excavating pairs of trees of each species that had been grown in isolation plots for 2 (3 pairs) and 4 (4 pairs) years. Additional trees grown without a barrier were partly excavated to ensure that the effect of the barrier on root architecture was not significant. The root architecture of both species had similar patterns of development but showed a different topology and distribution. Teak had extensive horizontal and vertical roots and occupied a larger portion of the soil volume than flueggea. Both species had similar root biomass increment of 87 % between 2 and 4 years and roots made up 20-22 % of total tree biomass at both ages. Teak and flueggea roots occupied different depths within the soil volume, which would promote nutrient uptake efficiency and therefore minimize competition. The study evaluated the effects of stocking rate and species mix on early growth of teak in a mixed species system. Intercropping with flueggea promoted diameter, height and form of teak. Teak diameter and basal area growth significantly increased with wider planting spacing though height was not statistically different to teak in single-species stands. Intercropping with flueggea resulted in teak developing smaller branches which facilitated a self-pruning habit that promoted clear wood production. Differences in teak height between all treatments were not significant though it is interesting to note that sixty months after planting, teak in T1 at Ringgi and teak in T5 at Poitete had the greatest height as had Flueggea in T5 at Ringgi though again differences in height of flueggea was not significantly throughout the treatments. Diameter and basal area were greatest at the lower stocking than at the higher stocking for teak and flueggea. Teak of T4 had the significant diameter and basal area growth than other treatments at age 60 months. Teak form was best at the pure and mixed species stands due to self-pruning while larger crown and big branches occurred at lower stocking rates. While this can be corrected with timely silviculture, a 4 x 3 m spacing would seem to optimise the benefits of higher stocking and lower maintenance. Overall, mixed species and agroforestry systems promoted reduction and delay of competition for growth resources in the early phase of the systems compared to monocultures. Both single and mixed species systems promoted similar C and N cycling in the plantation establishment phase. Growth in basal area was significantly higher at the mixed species stands at the lowest stocking rate, which also enable longer period of intercropping of food crops. However, as the present investigation was confined to the first 5 years, which is considered as establishment phase for teak, more studies are needed as the systems mature to fully understand the systems development and interactions to maturity.

Abstract:
The spatial variation of tree growth and site factors was studied in a silvopastoral system at Glensaugh in Northeast Scotland. Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus L). Hybrid larch (Larix x eruolepsis Henry) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L) were planted at 5 m x 5 m, 7.1 m x 7.1 m and 10 m x 10 m spacings on plots replicated over three blocks in a Randomised Complete Block design on a rye grass (Lolium perenne L) pasture which was grazed by sheep yearly from April to October. Included in the design were an agricultural control, forestry control and mowed plots. The agricultural control had no trees but grazed pasture and the mowed plots had trees but the pasture was not grazed, instead it was cut at intervals and left to decompose on site. The forestry control plots had no pasture and as such were not given fertiliser treatments and soil samples were not collected from them, in these the trees were planted at the standard 2 m x 2 m spacings and fenced off from the animals. Pastures received 160 kg N/ha-1 annum-1 in four equal applications. The objective of this work is to study at tree-scale the spatial variation of tree growth and site factors in grazed and ungrazed silvopastoral system plots. Total soil N, available Mg and Ca, as well as organic matter (OM), %C, pH in water and Calcium chloride increased significantly with distance from the tree while P decreased significantly with distance from the tree in grazed plots. The presence of trees or animals alone in a treatment did not significantly influence soil nutrient redistribution in a silvopastoral system. Therefore it takes the combined presence of trees and animals in a silvopastoral treatment for a significant redistribution of soil nutrients around the tree to occur.

Full text
Abstract:
A 3 x 2 factorial experiment was conducted to examine the outcome and some of the competitive mechanisms between P. radiata (D. Don) and pasture for N and soil moisture. The factors examined were the monthly addition of 30 kg N/ha versus no additional N, and the manipulation of the level of pasture competition by spraying and simulated-grazing to give three levels of pasture competition. The experiment coincided with a period of severe drought which greatly increased the competition for soil moisture. Removal of pasture competition by spraying released a large amount of N into the soil mineral N pool. It also reduced overall demand for N and water because of the reduction in competition resulting in improved tree growth and greater N uptake by trees. However, it was apparent that moisture was the main limiting factor for tree growth in the plus-pasture treatments because, whilst trees did take up some of the applied N in the plus-pasture treatments, they showed no increase in growth and N uptake. A localized effect of trees on pasture dry matter production and N content occurred. Directly beneath trees and in the area predominantly occupied by tree roots competition for water and N was intense. Pasture response to N was greatest away from the tree rooting zone. Pasture appeared to compete successfully due to the nature of its root system which consists of a large biomass of very fine roots compared to the small biomass of fine pine roots in the surface soil. Competition between pasture and trees was further examined using the stable isotope 15N to trace a single 15N-labelled application of N fertilizer in spring. Recovery of 15N during the split fertilizer application program was assessed by periodic pasture harvests in the simulated-grazing treatment and by obtaining a complete balance sheet after 249 days. The dynamics of plant availability of applied 15N and retention of 15N in the soil was also followed. The recovery and retention of 15NO3- and 15NH4+ in particular were compared in the simulated-grazing treatment. Larger quantities of 15NO3- remained available to plants than 15NH4+ and 15N was still found in the KCl-extractable mineral N pool at 154 and 249 days after application. P. Radiate assimilated the same amount of 15N when added as 15NO3- or 15NH4+ in the simulated-grazing treatment but uptake into the aboveground biomass of pasture was greater for 15NO3- than for 15NH4+. However, pasture uptake of 15NO3- and 15NH4+ was not significantly different when pasture stubble and roots were include in the total recovery for all harvests. Removal of pasture competition increased the availability of 15N for the period just after application but 15N uptake by P. radiata was only doubled. There were no significant differences in 15N recovery between treatments in the 0-20 cm depth of soil; on average this was 49% of that applied. Total system recovery was 107, 92, 76, and 71% for the 15NO3-treated, 15NH4+ -treated simulated-grazing treatments, 15NH4+ -treated rank, and sprayed treatments, respectively. The loss of 15N from the system was not accounted for by leaching although this was not directly measured. In the sprayed treatment where the loss of 15N was greatest, it was thought that 15N loss may have been due to denitrification. The root systems of neighbouring trees did not overlap and midway between the trees there was apparently no competition between trees and pasture since no effect of tree roots on pasture growth and 15N uptake could be shown. Uptake by artificially-grazed pasture did not seem to reduce 15N movement into the canopy to the same extent as uptake by rank pasture. In the simulated-grazing treatment the increased cycling of N or reduced pasture root growth may have provided some benefit to tree uptake of 15N.

Abstract:
The general goal of this research was to understand the agronomic and physiological changes of a lucerne crop in distinct physical radiation environments and to verify the potential of lucerne to grow under shaded conditions. To achieve this, the research was conducted in four main steps: (i) firstly, experimental data collection in the field using two artificial shade materials (shade cloth and wooden slats) under inigated and non-irrigated conditions; (ii) a second experiment with data collection in a typical temperate dryland agroforestry area under non-irrigated conditions; (iii) generation of a light interception sub-model suitable for shaded crops and (iv) a linkage between the light interception sub-model and a canopy photosynthesis model for agroforestry use. In experiments 1 and 2, lucerne crop was exposed to 6 different light regimes: full sunlight (FS), shade cloth (FS+CL), wooden slats (FS+SL), trees (T), trees+cloth (T +CL) and trees+slats (T+SL). The FS+SL structure produced a physical radiation environment (radiation transmission, radiation periodicity and spectral composition) that was similar to that observed in the agroforestry site (f). The mean annual photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) was 41 % under the FS+CL, 44% under FS+SL and 48% under T compared with FS in clear sky conditions. Plants were exposed to an intermittent (sun/shade) regime under both FS+SL and T, whereas under FS+CL the shaded light regime was continuous. The red to far-red (RIFR) ratio measured during the shade period under the slats was 0.74 and under the trees was 0.64. However, R/FR ratio increased to 1.26 and 1.23 during the illuminated period under FS+SL and T, respectively, and these were equivalent to the ratio of 1.28 observed under the FS+CL and 1.31 in FS. The radiation use efficiency (RUE) of shoots increased under the 5 shaded treatments compared with full sunlight. The pattern of radiation interception was unchanged by radiation flux, periodicity and spectral composition and all treatments had a mean extinction coefficient of 0.82. However, the magnitude of the decrease in canopy growth was less than those in PPFD transmissivity. The mean lucerne annual dry matter (DM) yield was 17.5 t ha⁻¹ in FS and 10 t ha⁻¹ under the FS+CL, FS+SL and T regimes. This declined to 3.4 t DM ha⁻¹ under T+CL (22% PPFD transmissvity) and 4.1 t DM ha⁻¹ under T+SL (23% transmissivity). A similar pattern of response was observed for leaf net photosynthesis (Pn) rates under the shade treatments compared with full sun. In addition, spectral changes observed under the trees and slats affected plant motphology by increasing the number of long stems, stem height and internode length compared with full sunlight. Thus, there were two main explanations for the increase in RUE under shade compared with full sun: (i) preferential partition of assimilates to shoot rather than root growth and/or (ii) leaves under shade were still operating at an efficient part of the photosynthetic light curve. The changes proposed for the canopy Pn model were appropriate to simulate the radiation environment of an agroforestry system. However, the model underestimated DM yields under the continuous and intermittent shade regimes. These were considered to be mainly associated with plant factors, such as overestimation in maintenance respiration and partitioning between shoots and roots in shade and the intermittency light effect on leaf Pn rates. Further investigation in these topics must be addressed to accurately predict crop yield in agroforestry areas. Overall, the lucerne crop responded typically as a sun-adapted plant under shade. It was concluded that lucerne yield potential to grow under intermediate shade was superior to most of C3 pastures previously promoted in the literature.

Abstract:
1. This research project on small mammals was carried out between December 1994 and August 1997 at the Leeds University Farms in West Yorkshire. 2. Densities of captures were assessed using weekly live trapping and mark- release-recapture (MRR) methods. One hundred and thirty two Longworth traps were set out in a complex fanning landscape consisting of four replicate blocks of silvoarable agroforestry designed as a series of tree rows planted at low density (178 trees/ha) and separated by arable alleys cropped with cereals (wheat or barley). Adjacent to each of these agroforestry systems is an area of trees planted at forestry density (2500 trees/ha), an arable field and a mature hedgerow. 3. Overall 1680 captures were obtained, 70% of which were of Apodemus sylvaticus, 20 % of Sorex araneus and only 10% of Clethrionomys glareolus. 4. A. sylvaticus and S. araneus showed preferences for the agroforestry system, whereas C. glareolus prefered the mature hedgerows. Overall, the highest density of capture was found in the tree rows (13.4 animals per 100 trap nights) and the least in the arable field (4.2 animals per 100 trap nights) 5. Densities of captures of A. sylvaticus were greater in Autumn than the other seasons, notably in the tree rows when the arable areas provide little cover. 6. Population densities were calculated and showed the same seasonal pattern as densities of captures. The highest population density was in October 1996 (36 mice/ha). 7. Male A. sylvaticus bred extensively from mid-Winter until early Summer. The female had a longer and more sporadic breeding period. Overall, the animals showed little or no breeding condition during the phase of population increase in the Autumn-Winter period. 8. Radiotracking of A. sylvaticus was carried out from May 1996 until June 1997. Home ranges were estimated using cluster analysis. 9. Home range sizes of A. sylvaticus, estimated using 95% of the density distribution, were between 0.04 and 0.30 ha. Home ranges of males were larger than those of females and showed seasonal patterns, with larger ranges during the Spring-Summer period which corresponds to the breeding season. 10. All the individuals tracked had overlapping home ranges spreading over the different habitats, particularly in the agroforestry system (tree rows and arable alleys) where most of the activity of the animals was recorded throughout the year.

Abstract:
Natural resources are in a constant state of depletion. The main reason being over exploitation of these resources and not contributing to their replenishment. To deal with these challenges, ecologists, leaders and experts have recommended the adoption of an agroforestry agriculture system. Agroforestry is more sustainable agricultural method that provides a long term vision to combat food insecurity. In spite of agroforestry being very useful, still individuals can not foresee it’s advantages. Serious games can motivate people in agroforestry scenarios and involve users in high interaction. GIS is a tool that can help in decision of proper location for agroforestry depending upon past data or information available. This paper defines a conceptual study for serious game to dynamically create 3D real-world agro-forestry environments. The serious games aim to provide visualization, intuitive management, and analysis of geospatial, hydrological and economic data to help participants for the decision support in agroforestry systems.

Abstract:
This study demonstrates that the economic activity of the Amazon's natural forest has great potential yet to be developed when considering Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) and those coming from agro-ecosystems (SAFs). Preliminary financial analyzes, in systems that are still incipient, point to a great potential for profitability of these alternative systems compared to traditional activities such as soybean and livestock farming, with the advantage of being conducted without degradation and deforestation, allowing the continuation with the support of the Amazonian ecological system. More research is needed to scale successful cases and more “dialogue” between the models of modern agriculture and the traditional knowledge to reach an integrated natural forest management system.

Abstract:
Eleven countries in Latin America and the Caribbean have pledged to reach net-zero emissions by around 2050. Changes in the food system are key to reach these carbon neutrality goals, as agriculture and resulting land-use changes are responsible for almost half of greenhouse gas emissions in the region. We quantify the effect of supply-side (e.g., yield improvements, silvopasture, agroforestry) and demand-side (e.g., reduction of waste and losses, changing diets) options to reduce emissions and transform the land use system in a net carbon sink by 2050 while improving nutrition for the growing population. We consider both direct agriculture emissions and the pressure that food production puts on land use changes, and track separately emissions that happen in the region and emissions linked to trade. Our findings confirm that cattle plays a preponderant role, emitting nearly 60% of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture and land-use change. Reaching a net-negative emissions food system able to balance emissions from the rest of the economy will require ambitious and sustained improvements in yields and changes in diets to moderate the increasing demand for beef, continuously decrease the share of land dedicated to agriculture, and increase instead land dedicated to carbon sequestration and biodiversity preservation.
