Projektnummer

Zusammenfassung
Climate change (CC) is one of the greatest global environmental and economic challenges. The impacts of CC are predicted to be more harmful in developing countries than others. Coffee farmers in Uganda are likely to experience effects of CC through reduced yields. However, they can play a vital role in mitigating CC if trees are integrated in their farms. Coffee agroforestry systems (CAS) can contribute to carbon sequestration; nonetheless, there is inadequate information to confirm their potential in this function in Uganda. This study aims at assessing and valuing the carbon sequest...
