Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Agricultura  Silvicultura  Sostenibilidad  Comunidades bióticas  Biodiversidad  Ecosistemas Clasificación: 630 Agricultura tecnologías relacionadas Resumen: La agrosilvicultura (FA) es un sistema dinámico de gestión de recursos naturales con base ecológica que, al integrar árboles en granjas, ranchos y otros paisajes, diversifica y aumenta la producción y promueve beneficios sociales, económicos y ambientales para los usuarios de la tierra. Además, está recibiendo cada vez más atención como una opción de gestión sostenible de la tierra en todo el mundo debido a sus atributos ecológicos, económicos y sociales. Se han logrado avances aprovechando los logros de investigación anteriores y ampliando la base de partes interesadas de AF, que ahora incluye asociaciones públicas y privadas, comunidades, ecologistas, agricultores, pueblos indígenas y formuladores de políticas tanto en países templados como tropicales. Actualmente se ha reconocido que la FA es un enfoque valioso para la resolución de problemas destinados a garantizar la seguridad alimentaria y reconstruir entornos rurales resilientes. Estudios recientes han demostrado que más de mil millones de hectáreas de tierras agrícolas tienen más del 10% de cobertura arbórea. De esta superficie, 160 millones de hectáreas tienen más del 50% de cobertura arbórea. Los ecosistemas agrícolas pueden mejorarse aún más a través del FA para lograr la restauración ambiental, una mayor productividad agrícola y servicios ecológicos clave, incluida la mitigación del cambio climático y la adaptación para mejorar los medios de vida rurales. De hecho, se considera en gran medida sinónimo de agricultura climáticamente inteligente y un remedio para muchos desafíos ambientales modernos. En consecuencia, la base de conocimientos sobre la FA se está ampliando a un ritmo rápido, como lo ilustra el creciente número y calidad de las publicaciones científicas sobre diversas formas y diferentes aspectos de la FA. Este libro ofrece información de vanguardia sobre los conceptos fundamentales y la historia de la FA y su evolución como ciencia, presentando una gran cantidad de resultados de investigaciones avanzadas y evaluaciones relacionadas con diferentes aspectos de la FA. En consecuencia, será útil para un público amplio, incluidos estudiantes, silvicultores, agricultores, comunidades locales, pueblos indígenas, instituciones de la sociedad civil, medios de comunicación, formuladores de políticas y el público en general.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : Agroforestry (AF) is a dynamic, ecologically based, natural resources management system that, by integrating trees on farms, ranches, and in other landscapes, diversifies and increases production and promotes social, economic, and environmental benefits for land users. Further, it is receiving increasing attention as a sustainable land-management option worldwide because of its ecological, economic, and social attributes. Advances have been achieved by building on past research accomplishments and expanding AF's stakeholder base, which now includes private/public partnerships, communities, ecologists, farmers, indigenous peoples, and policymakers in both temperate and tropical countries. AF has now been recognized as a valuable problem-solving approach to ensuring food security and rebuilding resilient rural environments. Recent studies have shown that more than 1 billion hectares of agricultural land have more than 10% tree cover. Of this area, 160 million hectares have more than 50% tree cover. Agricultural ecosystems can be further improved through AF to achieve environmental restoration, greater farm productivity, and key ecological services, including climate change mitigation and adaptation for improved rural livelihood. In fact, it is largely considered synonymous with climate smart agriculture and a remedy for many modern environmental challenges. Consequently, AF's knowledge base is being expanded at a rapid rate, as illustrated by the increasing number and quality of scientific publications on various forms and different aspects of AF. This book offers state-of-the-art information on the fundamental concepts and history of AF and its evolution as a science, presenting a wealth of advanced research results and evaluations relating to different aspects of AF. Accordingly, it will be useful for a broad readership, including students, foresters, farmers, local communities, indigenous peoples, civil society institutions, media, policymakers and the general public.
