Ringkasan

The Future Harvest agricultural research centres of the consultative group on international agricultural research (CGIAR) interact with (agro)biodiversity in many, if not all of their priorities and sub priorities. We here focus on the research and development activities targeting forests and trees, and use examples from the Sumatra (Indonesia) benchmark to highlight five current initiatives in partnership with research and development agencies: - the global DIVERSITAS Agrobiodiversity workplan and our links with the three main domains in the biodiversity/productivity tradeoff that it recognizes, - the CIFOR-ICRAF Biodiversity Platform that is focused on the conservation + use opportunities in dynamic landscape mosaics, - the Sustainable Management of Below Ground Biodiversity (BGBD) project. - the RUPES (Rewarding Upland Poor for the Environmental Services they provide) program in Southeast Asia, - the CI – ICRAF partnership ‘hot spot alliance’ to enhance conservation landscapes through agroforestry science and technology, Agroforests with rubber or coffee as main exotic tree crop, but abundant presence of the indigenous flora and fauna can provide a biodiversity-friendly alternative to the dominant development paradigm that is still based on monocultural plantations.
