Swidden agriculture, or shifting cultivation, is variously viewed as a great environmental threat or a sustainable system of land use. In Laos, swidden has long been considered the primary driver of forest loss nationwide, but the assessment is based exclusively on studies from the north of country, where deforestation is most severe. National policies to control swidden have percolated down to management of one of the largest nature reserves in the region, Nakai-Nam Theun National Protected Area (NNT NPA) in the Annamite Mountains of central Laos. In NNT NPA, swidden’s presumed unsustainability and deleterious impact on forest cover is an untested assumption. We tested it by methods of historical ecology, tracing the patterns of NNT’s... |

Neste trabalho esta sendo proposto o desenvolvimento de alternativas tecnologicas que permitam o manejo sustentado da vegetacao da caatinga, com o objetivo de evitar a degradacao ambiental e promover a recuperacao da produtividade agricola e pecuaria em niveis economicos e ecologicos. A manipulacao da vegetacao, atraves do raleamento, do rebaixamento, do raleamento-rebaixamento e do enriquecimento, pode aumentar a disponibilidade de forragem em ate 800% e a producao animal em ate 1500%. A sustentabilidade da producao agricola em condicoes tropicais sera obtida com sua fixacao, substituindo-se as praticas atuais de manejo da pecuaria, tais como o banco rocado. O manejo da vegetacao da caatinga com vistas a obtencao de produtos nao madereiro, ainda e... |

As formas e as etapas atuais do uso do solo no Juruá, uma das regionais de desenvolvimento do Estado do Acre, não diferem do resto da Amazônia Brasileira. Envolvem o sistema de derruba e queima da floresta, tanto primária quanto secundária, o uso geral do solo em monocultivo e/ou em sucessão por períodos de até 5 anos com culturas exigentes em fertilidade do solo (arroz, feijão e milho nos dois primeiros anos) e depois com mandioca, menos exigente e tolerante à acidez do solo. Os resultados dos cultivos de mandioca e milho, apresentados neste comunicado técnico, são produtos de uma pesquisa conduzida em condições de campo, adotando-se princípios da agricultura conservacionista. |

Hose’s leaf monkey Presbytis hosei is endemic to Borneo and occurs only in tall forest. In recent decades Borneo has lost a large part of its forest cover, mostly in low-lying coastal regions. Large intact tracts of forest remain in the interior, but these are by and large inhabited by tribes that subsist in part by hunting. The combined effects of habitat disturbance and hunting on the densities and biomass of Hose’s leaf monkey were studied in Kayan Mentarang National Park in Borneo’s far interior. Over four months, data on densities and hunting were collected by transect walks in four forest types. Hose’s leaf monkeys were hunted to deter crop-raiding, for their meat, and to obtain bezoar stones (visceral secretions used in traditional medicine). Hose’s... |

In the semiarid region of Brazil, inadequate management of cropping systems and low plant biomass production can contribute to reduce soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stocks; therefore, management systems that preserve C and N must be adopted. This study aimed to evaluate the changes in soil C and N stocks that were promoted by agroforestry (agrosilvopastoral and silvopastoral) and traditional agricultural systems (slash-and-burn clearing and cultivation for two and three years) and to compare these systems with the natural Caatinga vegetation after 13 years of cultivation. The experiment was carried out on a typical Ortic Chromic Luvisol in the municipality of Sobral, Ceará, Brazil. Soil samples were collected (layers 0-6, 6-12, 12-20, 20-40 and 40-60 cm)... |

ABSTRACT The use of fire to prepare agricultural areas is a technique still used by small farmers in eastern Amazon. This type of management changes the dynamics of soil nutrients, especially phosphorus, which constitutes the most limiting nutrient for crop production in tropical soils. This study was carried out to evaluate changes in phosphorus forms in an Argissolo Amarelo Distrófico (Ultisol) submitted to burning and trituration of secondary forest in eastern Amazon. The evaluated systems were: slash-and-burn of vegetation; slash-and-mulch of vegetation; and secondary vegetation. The labile, moderately labile, moderately recalcitrant, available and total phosphorus fractions were assessed at the soil depths of 0.00-0.05, 0.05-0.10 and 0.10-0.20 m. The... |
