Fit for purpose seed supply systems for the implementation of landscape restoration under Initiative 20x20: An analysis of national seed systems in Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, C... by Atkinson, R., Thomas. E., Cornelius, Jonathan P., Zamora, R., Chuaire, M.F.

“…For this goal to be achieved there is a need to strengthen seed and plant supply systems at the national, regional and local level to ensure that appropriate material of a diverse range of suitable species, adapted both to local conditions, and capable of persisting over generations under a changing climate, is available for each restoration project being carried out. This report presents a baseline of the national seed supply systems in 7 Latin American countries: Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, Peru, Chile and Argentina, drawing on knowledge from members of LAFORGEN, the Latin American Network of Forest Genetic Resources, as well as other experts. …”

Nut Production in Bertholletia excelsa across a Logged Forest Mosaic: Implications for Multiple Forest Use by Rockwell, Cara A., Guariguata, Manuel R., Menton, M., Arroyo Quispe, E., Quaedvlieg, J., Warren-Thomas, E., Fernández Silva, H., Jurado Rojas, E.E., Kohagura Arrunátegui, J.A.H., Meza Vega, L.A., Revilla Vera, O., Quenta Hancco, R., Valera Tito, J.F., Villarroel Panduro, B.T., Yucra Salas, J.J.

“…As many smallholders turn to the financial security provided by timber, Brazil nut fruits are increasingly being harvested in logged forests. We tested the influence of tree and stand-level covariates (distance to nearest cut stump and local logging intensity) on total nut production at the individual tree level in five recently logged Brazil nut concessions covering about 4000 ha of forest in Madre de Dios, Peru. …”
