AbstractThe CIGIAR System Wide Programme on Alternatives to Slash and Burn (ASB) was born out of recommendations agreed at the 1992 Rio Earth Summit. It has operated as a CGIAR programme since 1994. The Programme has an ecoregional focus on the forest-agriculture margin in the humid tropics, with benchmark sites in the Amazon of Brazil and Peru, the Congo Basin forest of Cameroon, the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, the northern mountains of Thailand, and the island of Mindanao in the Philippines.
