Slash-and-Burn Agriculture: The Search for Alternatives
Cheryl Palm, Stephen A. Vosti, Pedro A. Sanchez, Polly J. Ericksen
The Alternatives to Slash and Burn (ASB) consortium was formed in 1992 by a group of concerned national and international research institutions to address the global and local issues associated with this form of agriculture. With contributions from scientists, economists, ecologists, and anthropologists, this book synthesizes the first decade of ASB's work. It assesses the environmental, economic, and social impact of deforestation and the needs of small-scale farmers who rely on slash-and-burn agriculture for their livelihood. (3/2006)
