Gender perspectives in selecting tree species (G-TreeFarm)

Gender Perspectives in Selecting Tree Species and Farming Systems using an Analytic Hierarchy
Process (G-TreeFarm) reveals two layers of decision-making processes in selecting tree species
and farming systems between different gender or other diversified groups, such as migrant and
native groups. The tool produces 1) lists of tree species and farming systems based on the order of
preferences (what); and 2) lists of selections and the order of perceived importance (why). The first list
has direct uses for development programs to identify tree species that people want and the second
list can guide to a broader search of tree species and farming systems that match the important
criteria that people have, which are not in the first list.
