Opis

Agroforestry has been hailed world over as a significant ingredient in enhancing household food security, soil conservation, and curbing environmental degradation. However, the rate at which such well-indented farming practices are adopted at the household level vary from one place to another. In this book, the authors seek to demystify some of the on-farm and off-farm factors that may influence adoption of agroforestry practices among rural households in Kenya.
