| description | Agroforestry is a general concept for a land management system combining
trees and agriculture crops or livestock and it is being practised in a number of ways
or techniques. Each of these techniques is adjusted to a specific set of socio-economic
factors. Agroforestry cultivators or managers belonging to varying social strata and
institutional grouping may practice different forms of agroforestry, even within the
same general region. Agroforestry is a traditional practice in almost all of Asia. It has
been practised in Laos for hundreds of years. However, it bas not been organised and
managed in a systematic and scientific manner. This study evaluated the agroforestry
practices in two villages in Vientiane, Lao PDR. The objectives of the study were: (i)
to describe some agroforestry practices being practised in the two villages, in
Vientiane Province, Laos and (ii) to examine the bio-physical and socio-economic
aspects in relation to agroforestry practices in the two villages. |
