Land use strategies for successful extractive economies in Amazonia

The long term economic, social, and political viability of extractive reserves is threatened by the low concentrations of marketable non-timber forest products (NTFP) in many reserves and the correspondingly extensive forms of land use the have developed to harvest these products. This paper compares three types of land use currently practiced in the Brazilian Amazon and evaluates them for their potential to strengthen extractive reserves: forest extraction, extensive agroforestry, and intensive agroforestry. These land uses vary considerably in intensity but appear to be environmentally sound. This comparison reveals strategies to intensity but appear to be environmentally sound. This comparison reveals strategies to intensify current forms of land use in extractive reserves while maintaining their important role as conservation units.
