Forecast models of coffee leaf rust symptoms and signs based on identified microclimatic combinations in coffee-based agroforestry systems in Costa Rica
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2019)
Coffee leaf rust is a polycyclic disease that causes severe epidemics impacting yield over several years. For this reason, since the 1960s, more than 20 models have been developed to predict different indicators of the ...
Cacao agroforestry systems improve soil fertility: Comparison of soil properties between forest, cacao agroforestry systems, and pasture in the Colombian Amazon
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2021-01)
The objective of our work was to evaluate soil quality in different cacao agroforestry systems (AFS) in the Colombian Amazon. We compared soil quality of AFS at the study site with soil quality of two control systems: a ...
Patterns of shade plant diversity in four agroforestry systems across Central America: a meta‑analysis
(Nature, 2023-05-26)
Agroforestry systems can potentially increase tree diversity within agricultural landscapes, but to date, there is little understanding of the patterns of shade plant diversity within different agroforestry systems (AFS) ...
Los agroecosistemas cafetaleros modernos y su relación con la conservación de mariposas en paisajes fragmentados
(2018)
Land use change by the intensification of agriculture contributes to tropical forest fragmentation
and biodiversity loss. In this sense, in comparison with traditional agroforestry systems (AFS), modern
AFS are considered ...
Almacenamiento de carbono en sistemas agroforestales en los Llanos Orientales de Colombia
(2021-03)
Carbon storage in agroforestry systems in Colombia’s Eastern Plains. Introduction: Coffee, cocoa crops and pastures for livestock are agricultural activities of economic interest in Colombia. When these activities are ...
Prediction model for sap flow in cacao trees under different radiation intensities in the western Colombian Amazon.
(2021-01)
In this study, we measured diurnal patterns of sap fow (Vs) in cacao trees growing in three types of agroforestry systems (AFs) that difer in the incident solar radiation they receive. We modeled the relationship of Vs ...
