Addressing key natural resources management challenges in the humid tropics through agroforestry research

The countries in tropical Asia have begun to lay the foundation for sustained economic growth. Their remarkable progress has been heralded as a source of encouragement for developing countries throughout the world. This optimism is well-deserved, but should not be misinterpreted as victory achieved. Hundreds of millions of people remain in poverty, and the momentum of development has frequently accelerated the degradation of the natural resource base. These pressures are particularly acute in uplands of the region. The rate of forest degradation and conversion has increased in recent years in those countries where significant forests remain.
