Understanding the impacts of land-use policies on a threatened species: is there a future for the Bornean orang-utan?
Publicado 2012“…Further growth of the plantation sector should be achieved through increasing yields in existing plantations and expansion of new plantations into areas that have already been deforested. To reach this goal a large scale island-wide land-use masterplan is needed that clarifies which possible land uses and managements are allowed in the landscape and provides new standardized strategic conservation policies. …”
