Trees as hotspots: Using forest, trees, and agroforestry to foster diverse sustainable landscapes
(Agricultural Systems, 2022)
Forests, trees, and agroforestry (FTA) are ecosystem hotspots. They exemplify the contributions of biodiversity to sustainable and resilient landscapes, green circular economy and to sustainable agriculture and food systems ...
Ecosystem services from coffee agroforestry in Central America: estimation using the CAF2021 model
(Springer Nature, 2022)
The goal of sustainable coffee production requires multiple functions from agroforestry systems. Many are difficult to quantify and data are lacking, hampering the choice of shade tree species and agronomic management. ...
The Trees on Farms Project. Honduras
(International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN), 2022)
The process of Honduras is proposed in search of the development of farms with trees that collaborate to increase jobs, climate change, biodiversity progress. In addition, check interesting statistics regarding influence ...
Somatic embryogenesis of Arabica coffee in temporary immersion culture: Advances, limitations, and perspectives for mass propagation of selected genotypes
(Plant Science, 2022-10)
Culture in temporary immersion systems (TIS) is a valuable tool for the semiautomation of high frequency somatic embryogenesis of coffee. This system allows the intermittent exposure of explants to liquid medium in cycles ...
Agroforestry: A primer. Design and management principles for people and the environment
(Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)World Agroforestry Center (ICRAF), 2022)
Is a guide to agroforestry principles and concepts, and how to use them effectively. It develop ‘how-to’ manuals and guides those about agroforestry, forestry, horticulture and social sciences. It support to realize ...
Silvopastoral systems and remnant forests enhance carbon storage in livestock‑dominated landscapes in Mexico
(Scientific Reports, 2022)
A large area of the terrestrial land surface is used for livestock grazing. Trees on grazing lands provide and can enhance multiple ecosystem services such as provisioning, cultural and regulating, that include carbon ...
Timber growth, cacao yields, and financial revenues in a long-term experiment of cacao agroforestry systems in northern Honduras
(Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022)
We assessed 36 cacao plots made up of 15–35 useful timber shade trees with varying spacing 6 × 9, 9 × 9, 8 × 10, and 10 × 12m. Initially, each plot consisted of three shade components plus cacao. Plantain (Musa x paradisiaca) ...
ShadeMotion: tree shade patterns in coffee and cocoa agroforestry systems
(Springer, 2022-10-25)
Shade trees in coffee and cocoa agroforestry systems provide valuable livelihoods and other ecosystem services. Unfortunately, most shade canopies are sub-optimally designed and managed and the reasons behind this ...
Jamaica’s Climate Change Research Agenda

With the support of the Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN), the first phase of defining a road map for targeted research in Jamaica began in September 2020. During the development process, an effort was made to ...
ShadeMotion: the analysis of tree shade patterns tutorial
(Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE), 2021-03)
ShadeMotion 5.1.41 is a software application that calculates the number of hours of shade accumulated on each point (grid cell) on a plot due to the presence of trees, in any number, sizes and crown shapes and in any ...
