Abstract The large scale conversion of extensive swidden agriculture to intensive market oriented production maize in upland areas South East Asia is a cause environmental concern. This study investigates how cultivation affects soil quality an area Northern Thailand by comparing commonly used indicators soils from fields at various intensities. Relations between these and concentration permanganate oxidizable carbon (Pox‐C) – low cost proxy for are also examined. extent, type drivers land...

Abstract Shifting cultivation, a land use strategy of often resource‐poor households, centers around the management practice leaving fallow for up to 20 years restore soil fertility. Global pressures, example, conservation policies or population increase, are in some areas restricting duration lengths theoretically considered insufficient fertility restoration, which has however been difficult document empirically. Thus, our main objective was explore role short‐term restoration shifting...

Justice and human well-being are increasingly used as key considerations when assessing the impacts trade-offs associated with forest conservation on local indigenous populations. This paper incorporates environmental justice framework to get a more comprehensive understanding of social-economic conservation. Through household surveys, FGDs, in-depth interviews in three villages adjacent Campo Ma’an National Park (CMNP), we examine how creation national park amidst expanding large-scale...

Soil health is the continued capacity of soils to sustain life. The regenerative agriculture movement rooted in practices that maintain and build soil including minimizing tillage, maintenance cover, increased above below-ground diversity, fertilizer pesticide use, animal integration maintaining extending living roots green plant growth. To compare impact conventional practices, we collected 260 cores across Canadian province Alberta determined carbon nitrogen stocks addition management...
