New publications planned in the FAO NWFP series

Wild edible fungi for food security: options for sustainable use and development

Wild edible fungi (WEF) are an important component in diets, as well as being a source of income, for many people in developing countries worldwide. Information on wild edible mushroom trade and production is already included in two publications in the NWFP series (NWFP from conifers, 1998 and NWFP from temperate broadleaved trees [in preparation]).

The new publication, which is part of a series of efforts to document the role of NWFPs in food security, aims to gather in one volume the scattered information on the uses and prospects for development of WEF worldwide. It will include aspects such as management and production of WEF in forest ecosystems, the role of WEF in rural livelihoods, and markets. It will draw on experiences from many countries and regions in the world.

By disseminating this information, it is expected that the attention of forestry technicians, nutritionists, natural resource planners and policy-makers will be drawn to the links between this important category of NWFPs and food security.

The study is scheduled to be completed by the end of September 2001.

Resource assessment of non-wood forest products: experience and biometric principles

This publication is intended as a source of advice for practitioners considering inventory of non-wood forest product (NWFP) resources. Through review and analysis of experience it provides information:

· on the range of approaches used and developed to date and their biometric adequacy;
·
to help the practitioner decide when biometric methods are necessary;
·
to guide the design and selection of appropriate biometric methods for resource quantification in different situations and for different products.

[This publication is based on the results of a workshop held in Rome in May 2000. See under Recent Events.]

NWFP from temperate broadleaved trees

The objective of this paper is to provide a global review of the non-wood products and services provided by trees found in temperate broadleaf forests. The world's temperate broadleaf forests provide a vast array of products that are beneficial to humans. Temperate broadleaved trees are an important source of non-wood forest products (NWFP), some of which have been used by humans since prehistoric times.

Included in this publication is the range of NWFPs that this group of trees provides, species that are important sources of NWFP and places where these products are harvested. The products described are organized according to the part of the tree from which they are obtained - entire trees, foliage and flowers, bark, resins, fruits, nuts and organisms closely associated with temperate broadleaved trees. Where possible, data on levels of production and international trade are presented. Problems associated with the sustainable management of these products and compatibility or conflicts with other land uses are also presented. Both contemporary and historical or traditional uses of NWFPs from temperate broadleaved trees are discussed. Emphasis is placed on those species from which NWFPs are harvested from either natural or planted forests as opposed to trees planted in orchards (e.g. pome or stone fruits, olives and certain nuts) and are considered to be important agricultural crops.

This information is presented to assist in identifying opportunities for management and production of NWFPs as an integral part of economic development and poverty alleviation initiatives in economically depressed regions of the world where trees are an important element in the ecology, economics and human social structure. In addition, this information is also designed to help identify situations where special management of forests and woodlands may be appropriate to maintain or enhance the productivity of traditional or contemporary NWFP or to develop a potentially beneficial new resource.

Agroforestry parklands

in sub-Saharan Africa

J.-M. Boffa. 1999. Rome,

F AO. 230 pp.

Agroforestry parklands, traditional agroforestry systems in the Sudano-Sahelian region, are among the most widespread agroforestry systems in African countries south of the Sahara. This FAO Conservation Guide reviews the status of knowledge of these systems and synthesizes the experiences relating to the biophysical, socio-economic and policy aspects of their management. It identifies crucial research needs and promising avenues for further promoting their management, conservation and development. It is expected that future cooperative action will contribute to the sustainability of these agroforestry parklands and to their enhanced role in the livelihoods of rural populations in sub-Saharan Africa.

Use and potential of wild plants in farm households

FAO Farm Systems Management Series, No. 15, by Professor Vernon Heywood, Centre for Plant Sciences and Systematics, School of Plant Sciences, University of Reading, Reading, UK.

This publication demonstrates the important contribution of wild plants to the life of rural households, particularly in developing countries. The enhanced use of these resources would increase income and food security, assist development through small-scale investment, improve the efficiency and profitability of farm household labour use and help eliminate or alleviate poverty. The role of wild plants, especially in rural farm households, is, however, very often ignored or underestimated by planners, policy-makers, aid and development agencies, banks, extension services, economists, agronomists, genetic resource organizations and others.

Wild plants are rarely exploited as a main occupation or source of income but from a component of the many activities that make up the economy of farm households. In the planning of farming systems development projects for rural households, the role of wild plants needs to be assessed as far as possible.

The Farm Management and Production Economics Service of FAO's Agriculture Department commissioned this publication in order to raise awareness of the role of wild plants in many farming systems, providing examples from a range of different systems around the world. The publication describes the major areas in which plants contribute to farm households' incomes and the welfare of the local people and assesses the potential for future development. The book also points out the social, economic, legal and institutional constraints to enhance the use of wild plants and proposes ways in which these constraints may be overcome.

The miracle tree - Moringa oleifera: natural nutrition for the tropics

Moringa oleifera is a tree with a multitude of attributes. A recent book prepared by the Church World Service (CWS) discusses only a few of its uses and potentials: those relating to its capacity to ensure good health among people in the tropics and subtropics through the high nutritional content of its edible leaves and pods, and through the use of its seeds to purify drinking water. Charts, recipes and pamphlets are included so that the book can serve as a training manual for health workers.

A result of extensive research, this book also relates the practical results of a pilot project, a collaborative effort between CWS and the Senegalese development organization AGADA (Agir autrement pour le développement en Afrique), to test the theory that the products of the moringa tree can prevent or cure malnutrition among children and women of child-bearing age.
