Potentially, ecosystems show nonlinear responses to land-use intensification that would open management options with limited ecological losses but satisfying economic gains. However, multidisciplinary studies to quantify ecological losses and socioeconomic tradeoffs under different management options are rare. Here, we evaluate opposing land use strategies in cacao agroforestry in Sulawesi, Indonesia, by using data on species richness of nine plant and animal taxa, six related ecosystem functions, and on socioeconomic drivers of agroforestry expansion. Expansion of cacao cultivation by 230% in the last two decades was triggered not only by economic market mechanisms, but also by rarely considered cultural factors. Transformation from near-primary forest to agroforestry had little effect on overall species richness, but reduced plant biomass and carbon storage by ≈75% and species richness of forest-using species by ≈60%. In contrast, increased land use intensity in cacao agroforestry, coupled with a reduction in shade tree cover from 80% to 40%, caused only minor quantitative changes in biodiversity and maintained high levels of ecosystem functioning while doubling farmers' net income. However, unshaded systems further increased income by ≈40%, implying that current economic incentives and cultural preferences for new intensification practices put shaded systems at risk. We conclude that low-shade agroforestry provides the best available compromise between economic forces and ecological needs. Certification schemes for shade-grown crops may provide a market-based mechanism to slow down current intensification trends."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1073/pnas.0608409104"],["dc.identifier.gro","3148984"],["dc.identifier.scopus","2-s2.0-34247633507"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5623"],["dc.identifier.url","http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-34247633507&partnerID=MN8TOARS"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Faust Crossref Import"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.eissn","1091-6490"],["dc.relation.issn","0027-8424"],["dc.title","Tradeoffs between income, biodiversity, and ecosystem functioning during tropical rainforest conversion and agroforestry intensification"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Adaptation strategies to environmental change include maintenance of shade trees in tropical agroforestry, but conversion of shaded to unshaded systems is common practice to increase short-term yield.2. In this paper, we review the short-term and long-term ecological benefits of shade trees in coffee Coffea arabica, C. canephora and cacao Theobroma cacao agroforestry and emphasize the poorly understood, multifunctional role of shade trees for farmers and conservation alike.3. Both coffee and cacao are tropical understorey plants. Shade trees in agroforestry enhance functional biodiversity, carbon sequestration, soil fertility, drought resistance as well as weed and biological pest control. However, shade is needed for young cacao trees only and is less important in older cacao plantations. This changing response to shade regime with cacao plantation age often results in a transient role for shade and associated biodiversity in agroforestry.4. Abandonment of old, unshaded cacao in favour of planting young cacao in new, thinned forest sites can be named ‘short-term cacao boom-and-bust cycle’, which counteracts tropical forest conservation. In a ‘long-term cacao boom-and-bust cycle’, cacao boom can be followed by cacao bust due to unmanageable pest and pathogen levels (e.g. in Brazil and Malaysia). Higher pest densities can result from physiological stress in unshaded cacao and from the larger cacao area planted. Risk-averse farmers avoid long-term vulnerability of their agroforestry systems by keeping shade as an insurance against insect pest outbreaks, whereas yield-maximizing farmers reduce shade and aim at short-term monetary benefits.5. Synthesis and applications. Sustainable agroforestry management needs to conserve or create a diverse layer of multi-purpose shade trees that can be pruned rather than removed when crops mature. Incentives from payment-for-ecosystem services and certification schemes encourage farmers to keep high to medium shade tree cover. Reducing pesticide spraying protects functional agrobiodiversity such as antagonists of pests and diseases, pollinating midges determining cacao yields and pollinating bees enhancing coffee yield. In a landscape perspective, natural forest alongside agroforestry allows noncrop-crop spillover of a diversity of functionally important organisms. Knowledge transfer between farmers, agronomists and ecologists in a participatory approach helps to encourage a shade management regime that balances economic and ecological needs and provides a ‘diversified food-and-cash crop’ livelihood strategy."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/j.1365-2664.2010.01939.x"],["dc.identifier.gro","3150127"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/6857"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","0021-8901"],["dc.subject","agricultural intensification; Arabica and Robusta coffee; boom-and-bust cycles; cacao yield; ecological-economic trade-offs; ecological resilience; functional biodiversity; household vulnerability"],["dc.title","Multifunctional shade-tree management in tropical agroforestry landscapes - a review"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

This research is based on a qualitative approach by applying different methods such as semi-structures interviews and PRA-sessions. We find that environmental change, population growth and unequal land distribution induces migration to the forest frontier. Land shortage and high land prices in the regions of origin and cheap access to land in the destination areas are the classical driving forces for migration in the region.

Since 1997, approximately 400 bicycle ambulances have been distributed to villages in rural Uganda to improve accessibility to health centers. Approximately 20% of the population of Uganda have to travel more than 5 km to a health center, in a country where most transportation is by foot. A bicycle ambulance is a bicycle with an attached trailer used to transport seriously sick patients up to 15 km. The author conducted guided interviews with receivers and the distributors of bicycle ambulances in selected villages. Factors have been defined that influence the usage of bicycle ambulances, including individual village characteristics, the features of the bicycle ambulance, the system of distribution, and the organization of the groups using the bicycle ambulances. The distance to the health center, nor the distance to the main road and quality of the road itself significantly influenced the usage of the bicycle ambulance. The frequency of usage of the bicycle ambulances was limited to a few cases in a month or year. The only significant influence on the frequency of usage was observed based on the different organizational structures of the bicycle ambulance groups. The author considers some of the barriers to use, including long distances to health centers and costs of repairs, but notes that these and other barriers can be overcome through the positive attitude of group members."],["dc.identifier.gro","3147866"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5195"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","1352-7614"],["dc.title","Bicycle Ambulances in rural Uganda - Analysis of factors influencing its usage"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
