or NTFPs, a greater understanding
of the genetic aspects of production is required
perhaps building on data collected
from logged timber trees. For AFTPs
a stronger emphasis on the
genetic quality of the trees planted by smallholders is needed
which
means paying attention both to domestication and to the systems by which improved germplasm is delivered to farmers
For tree commodity crops, more attention is needed on the
valuation of wild and semi-wild genetic resources so that better
methods for conservation that recognise value can be implemented
More work is also needed to develop cultivars that perform well in
diverse farm systems
