The effects of cultivation history on forest recovery in fallows in the Eastern Arc Mountain, Tanzania

2011-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Using fallows under shifting cultivation systems as a case study, we examined the effects of landuse history (cultivation duration and cropping strategies) on rate and extent of forest recovery. Cultivation duration and five cropping strategies were investigated post facto, indirectly, and with regards to their effect on the structure (basal area, BA and stand complexity, CHCI) and diversity (Fisher's α) of forest...
