Is boslandbouw de oplossing voor het Amazonegebied?
In het Amazonegebied moet veel bos plaatsmaken voor landbouw. Bij boslandbouw gaan gewassen samen met bomen en dieren. Is dat inderdaad een duurzaam alternatief - ook voor de bodem, vragen Eiko Kuramae en Márcio Leite in Global Change Biology. -

Light on Nature
