About this title

Synopsis

Livelihoods and incomes of rural communities can be improved through growing, processing and marketing products from Indigenous Fruit Trees. However, until recently there has been limited quantitative evidence to support this. This book therefore presents findings of a project on Use and Conservation of Indigenous Tree Diversity for Improved Livelihoods in Uganda. It is aimed at students, researchers, government, NGOs, development agencies and practitioners in agroforestry.
