| Abstract: |
| The 'Alternatives to Slash and Burn' (ASB) program was started to test ways to reduce the loss of tropical forests, by enhancing the intensity of agricultural use in already converted lands, and/or to reduce the loss of 'forest functions' in land uses that qualify as 'modified' or 'domesticated' forests. In the third phase the emphasis was on the latter aspect. This research report for the Sumberjaya benchmark area in Indonesia includes chapters such as: 'trees that produce mulch layers which reduce runoff and soil loss in coffee multistrata systems", "conservation measures and variation in soil susceptibility to erosion", "Participatory trials for the refinement of conservation practices" and "Multistrata coffee systems as an alternative to sustain the Sumberjaya ecological system". |
