Annotation Forty-six scientists and practitioners from thirteen countries with decades of field experience in tropical regions explore how agroforestry practices can help promote biodiversity conservation in human-dominated landscapes, synthesise the current state of knowledge in the field, and identify areas where further research is needed.
