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 ... -
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% ... -
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 ...
