Productos forestales no madereros infrautilizados en Etiop铆a: potencial socioecon贸mico, de estatus y de rendimiento
Ethiopia is rich in biodiversity; however, the diversity of plants is highly threatened. Consequently, many of
the Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) with significant potential for rural livelihood improvement are
unvalued, underutilized, and threatened. Moreover, the NTFPs are neglected and not included in Ethiopia's
forest management plans and strategies. Then again, location based specific studies related to the NTFPs
production are scarce in the country. They would be key to assist the rural communities in their food
security and income generation through the sustainable management, use and conservation of valuable
species strategies in their natural habitat. Thus, in this doctoral thesis, we aimed to generate information on
the socioeconomic, population status, and yield potential of underutilized NTFP producing tree species and
wild edible mushrooms in Ethiopia.Departamento de Producci贸n Vegetal y Recursos ForestalesDoctorado en Conservaci贸n y Uso Sostenible de Sistemas Forestale
