Deforestation and Its Consequences in the Asia-Pacific Region

Lamb, David

Pages: 1 –39

[Large-scale deforestation and forest degradation have become common in most tropical areas in the 60 years since Richards first expressed his concerns. Part of the reason has been the need for more agricultural lands. The world’s population in 1950 was 2.5 billion people but this had risen to...

Forest and Land Degradation in the Asia-Pacific Region

Lamb, David

Pages: 41 –91

[The first chapter described how large amounts of deforestation and degradation have occurred in tropical forests across the Asia-Pacific region and how this is threatening biodiversity, while still leaving many people poor. This discussion covered the problem from a global and regional...

Reforestation, Conservation and Livelihoods

Lamb, David

Pages: 93 –134

[Conservationists tend to view deforestation largely in terms of its impact on biodiversity. But, because of deforestation, there is an equally compelling human tragedy unfolding as well. Many people used these forests in the past and are now trying to make a living in the degraded forests and...

Different Types of Reforestation

Lamb, David

Pages: 135 –155

[Previous chapters have argued there are a number of potential advantages in reforesting degraded lands and that such reforestation has the potential to improve human well-being and help conserve biological diversity. But there are different ways of achieving this. In the recent past most...

Natural Regeneration and Secondary Forests

Lamb, David

Pages: 157 –209

[The easiest way of reforesting degraded lands is to take advantage of the capacity of many disturbed areas to recover unaided. The forests originating in this way are often referred to as secondary forests and these now cover large areas across the Asia-Pacific region. Many seemingly pristine...

Monocultural Plantings

Lamb, David

Pages: 211 –267

[Natural forest regrowth is an attractive form of reforestation but it is not always possible to achieve. This is especially true where forests have been cleared and replaced by large expanses of grasslands that are regularly burned. It is even more difficult when lands have been heavily degraded...
Available

Mixed-Species Plantings

Lamb, David

Pages: 269 –323

[The third way in which forests might be re-established (and the second way in which degraded land might be replanted) is to use multi-species plantations or polycultures. As was the case with monocultural plantations, these plantings are usually undertaken when natural regeneration is thought to...

Ecological Restoration

Lamb, David

Pages: 325 –358

[Ecological Restoration is the process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged or destroyed (SER 2004). Different practitioners interpret this in various ways. Some think it necessitates re-establishing the original ecosystem or trying to replicate the...

Plantation Finances

Lamb, David

Pages: 359 –392

[It is all very well for conservationists and foresters to recognize the need to reforest degraded lands but this does not mean that the owners of such lands will necessarily feel inclined to do so. Some may while others will not. Much will depend on their circumstances and especially whether...

Reforestation and Farmers

Lamb, David

Pages: 393 –437

[In the past many farmers have grown trees on their land using some form of agro forestry. These have been mostly grown for domestic uses. But the recent decline in the area of natural forests has meant the demand for forest products has increased and there is increasing scope for farmers to grow...
