This Issue: */Agroforestry Systems (Part 1 of 2) /*and Some Other Good 
Things

*AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS (Part 1 of 2)//--*Back in March, I wrote,/"I have 
been asked to update an article on agroforestry. I am especially 
interested in any new innovative techniques, inventories, or research on 
the subject that has taken place since 2000." /Some of the following may 
be of interest to you.//My deepest thanks to the following for their 
helpful suggestions: Piermaria Corona (University of Tuscia), Mike 
Underwood(University of KwaZulu-Natal), Michelle.Gauthier (FAO), and 
August Temu (ICRAF). Cheers. Gyde.//
