La producción familiar como alternativa de un desarrollo sostenible para la Amazonía: lecciones aprendidas de iniciativas de uso forestal por productores familiares en la Amazonía boliviana, brasilera, ecuatoriana y peruana
Between 2005 and 2009, the EU-financed project ForLive set out to analyse promising local forest management initiatives in the Amazon Basin in four countries: Ecuador, Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. Researchers aimed to identify locally viable practices that benefit livelihoods and ecological stabilisation of landscapes, as well as to define ways to promote these practices as a basis for sound rural development. This book presents lessons learnt from more than 100 studies by researchersfrom Latin America, from practitioners and from local families themselves.

Land use and agricultural change dynamics in SAT watersheds of southern India
Impact of dynamic land use and land cover changes on the livelihood of local communities and ecosystem services is a major concern. This is particularly evident in most dryland agricultural systems in South Asia. We study land use/land cover (LULC) changes over the last two decades in a watershed (9589 ha) located in semi-arid eco-region in South India (Anantapuram district) using Landsat and IRS imagery. We captured additional data through field observations and focused group discussions.
Land use strategies in Pucallpa, Perú
In a selected study are in Pucallpa, Peru, 151 farmer-settlers were interviewed to understand current land use dynamics. Respondents were stratified according to broad differences determined by preliminary informal surveys. Settlers included: farmers practicing slash-and-burn agriculture in upper forested areas, slash-and-burn farmers living along rivers, small-scale cattle ranchers with lands located largely along the road connecting Pucallpa to Lima, and a subset of forest slash-and-burn farmers who had established oil palm as a cash crop.
