Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Farmers in the Forest, while using examples chiefly from northern Thailand, is concerned with complex problems found in all tropical countries. In these areas rapid population growth, increasing demands for food, and burgeoning international markets for forest products and other raw materials are associated with active competition for land and natural resources in upland areas. This book brings together studies by administrators, agronomists, anthropologists, forest ecologists, geographers and jurists, who describe a variety of swidden systems and their effect on soil, forest, society, and economy. They point to conflicts between traditional farming systems and modern legal and administrative constraints now being imposed, and they describe special and technological conditions that contribute to a marginal, stagnant upland economy, increasing socio-economic disparities with the lowlands, and the serious ecological consequences of these conditions. Several possible solutions are suggested to solve these problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shifting cultivation supports around 200 million people in the Asia-Pacific region alone. It is often regarded as a primitive and inefficient form of agriculture that destroys forests, causes soil erosion and robs lowland areas of water. These misconceptions and their policy implications need to be challenged. Swidden farming could support carbon sequestration and conservation of land, biodiversity and cultural heritage. This comprehensive analysis of past and present policy highlights successes and failures and emphasizes the importance of getting it right for the future. This book is enhanced with supplementary resources. The addendum chapters can be found at: www.cabi.org/openresources/91797

This book was released on 1999 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gegenstand der Arbeit ist die Vegetation, die sich unter dem Einflu� des Schwendbaus (Swidden farming, Shifting Cultivation) der Bergv�lker im Hochland von Nord-Thailand entwickelt. Ziel der Studie ist die Untersuchung der Artenzusammensetzung, Struktur, Dynamik und Nutzung der Vegetation, vor allem der Sekund�rw�lder, auf Brachfl�chen von ethnischen Gruppen, die unterschiedliche Formen des Schwendbaus betreiben. Dazu wurden drei D�rfer als Fallstudien bearbeitet, die jeweils von Angeh�rigen der ethnischen Gruppen der Lawa, der Karen und der Akha bewohnt werden und sich in einer H�henlage um 1000 m im Bereich der unteren Montanwaldstufe befinden. Obwohl deutliche Unterschiede festgestellt werden konnten, erwiesen sich die meisten Sekund�rw�lder als �kologisch wie auch �konomisch wertvoll. �Die Synthese aus natur- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Fragestellungen ist in der auf zweij�hriger Feldforschung basierenden Studie gut gelungen. Die Arbeit leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Diskussion um den Einflu� von Landnutzungssystemen auf die Vegetationsentwicklung tropischer Sekund�rw�lder.�Erdkunde "� a useful study [�] This book will be of interest to students of swidden agriculture as well as to those interested in tropical botany, biodiversity conservation, and land use/land-cover change. In the end, the book reinforces a new paradigm in the management of tropical biodiversirty that extends conservation to human-impacted lands." Geographical Journal .
