| description | Scientists from Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical
(CIAT) in Colombia, the FAO and others have embarked on
research under the CPWF to gain a detailed understanding of
the reasons why QSMAS works and to establish a plan for
applying the system else where. The CPWF project responsible
for the research, ‘Quesungualslash and mulch agroforestry
system (QSMAS): improving crop water productivity, food
security and resource quality in the sub-humid tropics,’ aims to
answer six main questions: How does the system work? What
are the driving factors behind its adoption? Is it sustainable?
How can it be improved? What environmental services does it
provide? Can the system or its components be extrapolated to
other tropical areas? |
