The aim of this manual is to provide an opportunity for adult learning and contribute to farmer-based dissemination of information. The manual provides technical information that addresses forest tree species selection and propagation in cocoa fields, policy and legislation on timber trees on farm, and determination of compensation due to farmers for felled timber trees on cocoa farms. This information is then followed by guided decision-making exercises designed to reinforce cocoa farmers? observation skills, decision-making capacity and knowledge on timber tree species incorporated in cocoa growing systems in West Africa.

This open access book provides multidisciplinary perspectives on the potential of agroforestry to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change on cocoa production. Against the backdrop of increasingly precarious farmer livelihoods, it focuses on cocoa-agroforestry in Ghana – the second largest producer of cocoa in the world. Taking the reader on a journey across experimental plots and on-farm studies, the book delivers a holistic understanding of cocoa-agroforestry. Chapters examine historical yield and climate interactions, the effects of heat and drought on cocoa plants and the role of differing shade trees on soil fertility, yields, pests and diseases. The book discusses the socioeconomics of shade tree management, including cost-benefits, tree rights and competition for natural resources emphasizing policy implications and recommendations. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to climate-agriculture interactions, the book provides an innovative understanding of agroforestry and perennial cropping systems that goes beyond the Ghanaian cocoa belt. It is of relevance to students, researchers, farmers, practitioners and policymakers working with agroforestry and climate change adaptation. This is an open access book.

Agroforestry -- the practice of integrating trees and other large woody perennials on farms and throughout the agricultural landscape -- is increasingly recognized as a useful and promising strategy that diversifies production for greater social, economic, and environmental benefits. Agroforestry and BiodiversityConservation in Tropical Landscapes brings together 46 scientists and practitioners from 13 countries with decades of field experience in tropical regions to explore how agroforestry practices can help promote biodiversity conservation in human-dominated landscapes, to synthesize the current state of knowledge in the field, and to identify areas where further research is needed. Agroforestry and Biodiversity Conservation in Tropical Landscapes is the first comprehensive synthesis of the role of agroforestry systems in conserving biodiversity in tropical landscapes, and contains in-depth review chapters of most agroforestry systems, with examples from many different countries. It is a valuable source of information for scientists, researchers, professors, and students in the fields of conservation biology, resource management, tropical ecology, rural development, agroforestry, and agroecology.

TREE TO BAR CHOCOLATE We've grown cacao since 2010, but cacao and chocolate became my obsession during the Stay-At-Home days during the pandemic. Before dawn I tempered and molded chocolate. In the daytime I took care of my trees and the trees at the University of Hawai'i, Hilo. I explored methods of fermenting cacao bean in tiny batches and making chocolate bean to bar. I chatted with experts, took online classes, and read books and scientific papers. This book is a synthesis of everything I've learned. It explains how to make chocolate from tree-to-bar and beyond. Covering topics of growing & harvesting, simple tiny fermentations, and chocolate & confections making, this book will bring more cacao into your life. It is written with small scale cacao tree growers and amateur chocolate makers in mind, but has been well-received by chocolate enthusiasts everywhere. Inside you will find: • savory and sweet recipes for every step of the process • ways to ferment a tiny amount of cacao seeds • a primer on basic chocolate making skills • tricks for tempering chocolate in a tropical climate • inspiration for using locally grown ingredients • guidance to tasting chocolate • encouragement to experiment and play CHAPTER LIST Introduction One Cacao Pod Tree to Bar Chocolate Growing & Harvesting Unfermented Fermenting Drying Roasting & Winnowing Grinding Tempering In the Tropics Molding and Dipping Flavor & Tasting A Bad Batch? Canoe Plants Rituals Reader feedback: "Order this book! If you love chocolate, there's always something new to learn. Not just for chocolate makers! An approachable, fun softcover book where the aloha spirit spills out the moment you open the cover." - Barb Genuario, @chocochaser on Instagram "Wow! What an awesome book! I read it cover to cover... I have a newfound appreciation for chocolate making. I especially loved the different recipes for making things at every stage of the process and utilizing much of the pod along the way. While I likely won't be making tree to treat chocolates, it did open my eyes to what chocolate actually is." - Brandon, chocolate-eater in Seattle, WA "My favorite book on chocolate and cacao ever." - Mackenzie Rivers, MAP Chocolate and The Next Batch chocolate school
