COCOA AND TOTAL SYSTEM YIELDS OF ORGANIC AND CONVENTIONAL AGROFORESTRY VS. MONOCULTURE SYSTEMS IN A LONG-TERM FIELD TRIAL IN BOLIVIA (2016, unknown): “(2011–2013) These results conﬁrm the ﬁndings of other studies (Franzen and Mulder, 2007; Nunoo et al. , 2013), showing that cocoa trees yield best during the ﬁrst decade of production in full-sun systems.”
Multifunctional shade‐tree management in tropical agroforestry landscapes – a review (2011, background): “…Alliance ; UTZ certified or Bird friendly; Philpott et al. 2007), in which a premium is paid for cacao cultivated under a diverse layer of shade trees, would help increase economic benefits while simultaneously providing incentives to farmers to maintain shade (Franzen & Borgerhoff-Mulder 2007).”
The Brazilian Atlantic Forest: A Shrinking Biodiversity Hotspot (2011, background): “The social aspects of agroforest systems in the Atlantic Forest are also normally evaluated, and enormous benefits have been reported (Franzen and Mulder 2007; Vieira et al. 2009).”
Forest loss or management intensification? Identifying causes of mammal decline in cacao agroforests (2014, background): “Increasing economic return from cabrucas could be assisted by agricultural diversification, such as the cultivation of other shade tolerant crops, and research should focus on developing shade tolerant forms of cocoa that provide higher yields (Franzen and Mulder, 2007).”
