Agricultural Technologies and Tropical Deforestation

This book has been developed from a workshop on Technological change in agriculture and tropical deforestation organised by the Center for International Forestry Research and held in Costa Rica in March, 1999. It explores how intensification of agriculture affects tropical deforestation using case studies from different geographical regions, using different agricultural products and technologies and in differing demographic situations and market conditions. Guidance is also given on future agricultural research and extension efforts.Angelsen, A. is the author of 'Agricultural Technologies and Tropical Deforestation' with ISBN 9780851994512 and ISBN 0851994512.
