However, widespread adoption of agroforestry innovations is still constrained by a myriad of factors including design features of candidate agroforestry innovations, perceived needs, policies, availability and distribution of factors of production, and perception of risks. Understanding the science, and factors that regulate the adoption, of agroforestry and how they impact the implementation of agroforestry is vitally important. Agroforestry for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services: Science and Practice examines design features and management practices of some agroforestry practices and their impact on biodiversity and the ecosystem services it delivers. It also identifies policy issues for facilitating adoption of desirable agroforestry practices and gradual diminution of undesirable policies.Agroforestry for biodiversity and ecosystem servicesBiodiversityScienceEnvironmental policy & protocolsBiodiversity.Science.333.95Leckson Kaonga Martinedt1430710Kaonga Martin LecksonNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910138157803321Agroforestry for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services3570552UNINA
