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 ...
Shade and Agronomic Intensification in Coffee Agroforestry Systems: Trade-Off or Synergy?
(2021)
Despite many years of research, there is still a lack of consensus as to the nature of the relationship between shade trees and agronomic intensification in coffee agroforestry systems. While some studies find unshaded ...
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 ...
Total litterfall and leaf‑litter decomposition of Theobroma grandiflorum under different agroforestry systems in the western Colombian Amazon
(Springer, 2023)
The objective of this study was to quantify the amount of litter accumulated on the soil and the rate of decomposition in multistrata successional agroforestry systems with Theobroma grandiflorum as mainly crop, compared ...
Assessing the accuracy and robustness of a process-based model for coffee agroforestry systems in Central America
(Springer, Nueva York (Estados Unidos), 2020)
Coffee is often grown in production systems associated with shade trees that provide different ecosystem services. Management, weather and soil conditions are spatially variable production factors. CAF2007 is a dynamic ...
Agroforestry governance for operationalising the landscape approach: connecting conservation and farming actors
(Springer, Berlín (Alemania), 2020-07)
The expansion and intensification of agriculture as well as the associated land clearing are threatening both biodiversity and
human wellbeing in tropical areas. Implementing agroforestry systems through a landscape ...
