Evaluating Financial Viability and Adoption Conditions of Foraging and Silvopastoral Systems for Cattle Farmers in Orange Walk, Belize
(2025-12)The cattle industry in Belize is a booming industry that requires time and great management for it to be successful. Given the fact that the agricultural sector in the country is on the rise in recent years to compliment ... -
Competition for light in heterogeneous canopies Application of MAESTRA to a coffee (Coffea arabica L.) agroforestry system
(Elsevier, 2013-11-15)In agroforestry systems (AFS), quantifying the competition for light is a prerequisite toward understanding the impact of shade trees on the productivity of the under-crop. Models for homogeneous canopies and shade/full-sun ... -
Increased light-use efficiency sustains net primary productivity of shaded coffee plants in agroforestry system
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2017-08)In agroforestry systems, shade trees strongly affect the physiology of the undergrown crop. However, a major paradigm is that the reduction in absorbed photosynthetically active radiation is, to a certain extent, compensated ... -

Environmental-economic benefits and trade-offs on sustainably certified coffee farms
(Elsevier, 2017-08-01)Coffee with diverse shade trees is recognized as conserving greater biodiversity than more intensive production methods. Sustainable certification has been proposed as an incentive to conserve shade grown coffee. With 40% ... -
Functional biogeography of oceanic islands and the scaling of functional diversity in the Azores
(National Academy of Sciences, 2014-09-23)Analyses of species-diversity patterns of remote islands have been crucial to the development of biogeographic theory, yet little is known about corresponding patterns in functional traits on islands and how, for example, ... -
Functional implications of trait-environment linkages in plant communities
(Cambridge University Press, 1999)In this chapter, three fundamental concepts in community ecology are dealt with: assembly rules, trait-environment linkages, and plant functional types. Although all of them have received considerable attention in the ... -
Patterns of animal diversity in different forms of tree cover in agricultural landscapes
(Ecological Society of America, 2006-10)As tropical regions are converted to agriculture, conservation of biodiversity will depend not only on the maintenance of protected forest areas, but also on the scope for conservation within the agricultural matrix in ... -
