Collaborative characterization of wild edible plant relevance for sustainable food systems at a Mexican agroforest frontier
Wild edible plants (wild plants) are essential to rural livelihoods, yet their diversity and consumption are declining, jeopardizing their contributions to food security. We explored the relevance of wild plants for transitioning toward a sustainable local food system in an agroforest frontier of southern Mexico through a transdisciplinary approach. We characterized their relevance by integrating knowledge shared through participatory tools, such…
A system dynamics model based on leverage points to guide the sustainability of urban gardens in intermediate cities
This article presents a qualitative system dynamics model based on leverage points to guide the sustainability of urban food gardens (hereafter, urban gardens), using Xalapa-Enríquez, a leading city for this phenomenon in Mexico, as a case study. The multilevel model designed for intermediate cities highlights the importance of a systemic perspective grounded in agroecology as a management approach to promote agrobiodiversity, agroecological prac…
Cambio de Uso del Suelo e Implicaciones de la Expansión Agroindustrial Aguacatera en el Occidente de México
En el marco de la modernizacin e industrializacin rural y agrcola, el aguacate se ha convertido en un agronegocio destacado.Su expansin desencadena un cambio de uso del suelo (CUS) e importantes impactos socioambientales.Abordamos el caso de dos comunidades campesinas en Michoacn, Mxico occidental, con caractersticas ambientales anlogas.El objetivo fue analizar los cambios e impactos asociados al CUS por la expansin de dicha agroindustria entre 1…
Sustentabilidade e bem viver segundo os agricultores familiares do Projeto de Desenvolvimento Sustentável São Paulo, na Amazônia norte mato-grossense, Brasil
Na Amazônia brasileira, os assentamentos rurais encontram-se cada vez mais isolados por grandes fazendas de produção em larga escala, comprometendo a sua sustentabilidade e o bem viver dos agricultores familiares assentados. Trabalhos foram realizados em assentamentos para mensurar a sustentabilidade. Porém, a maioria não leva em consideração a participação e a coletividade dos envolvidos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi compreender a concepção dos…
Knowing the Clouds through the Land
Changes in climate are important for agriculture and the livelihoods it sustains. To improve the understanding of how climate vulnerability is expressed in agricultural environments, it is necessary to address how people perceive and interact with their surroundings. This study analyzes farmers' perceptions of a set of climate change indicators and their influence on agricultural practices in two Indigenous communities located at different altitu…
How does urbanization affect perceptions and traditional knowledge of medicinal plants
BackgroundThe use and knowledge of medicinal plants play an essential role in community health in rural Mexico. Medicinal plants are part of the local heritage and provide a source of economic income. Nevertheless, knowledge of their use has declined due to factors like accelerated urbanization. Some authors have proposed that by reducing natural spaces, urbanization generates changes that impact the recognition, use, and management of natural re…
Environmental interactions between people and birds in semiarid lands of the Zapotitlán Valley, Central Mexico
BackgroundBirds have been among the most important element in lives of humans around the world, due to their presence and abundance in practically all ecosystems. Zapotitlán Salinas, a community of the Tehuacán Valley, has been a site of interest for studying ecology of bird communities, but no previous studies addressing the relationship between humans and birds have been conducted in the area. Based on their local knowledge, people of the area …
Use and management of wild fauna by people of the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Valley and surrounding areas, Mexico
BackgroundInteractions between humans and fauna lay in the heart of the history of human subsistence. In Mesoamerica, the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Valley (TCV) harbours a high biodiversity with archaeological and ethnoecological evidence of its use by people inhabiting the area since at least 12,000 B.P. It is recognized as one of the most ancient areas of agriculture in the Americas, and a broad spectrum of management practices aimed to ensure the ava…
Ethnoecology of the interchange of wild and weedy plants and mushrooms in Phurépecha markets of Mexico
BACKGROUND: Interactions between societies and nature are regulated by complex systems of beliefs, symbolism, customs, and worldviews (kosmos), ecological knowledge (corpus), and management strategies and practices (praxis), which are constructed as product of experiences and communication of people throughout time. These aspects influence social relations, life strategies, and cultural identity, and all of them in turn influence and are influenc…
Semiarid ethnoagroforestry management
BACKGROUND: The semi-arid environments harbor nearly 40% of biodiversity, and half of indigenous cultures of Mexico. Thousands of communities settled in these areas depend on agriculture and using wild biodiversity for their subsistence. Water, soil, and biodiversity management strategies are therefore crucial for people's life. The tajos, from Sierra Gorda, are important, poorly studied, biocultural systems established in narrow, arid alluvial v…
Plant Management in Agroforestry Systems of Rosetophyllous Forests in the Tehuacán Valley, Mexico
Ethnoagroforestry
Ethnoagroforestry an emergent research approach aspiring to establish bases for integrate forestry and agricultural diversity, soil, water, and cultural richness. Its main premise is that ethnoagroforestry may provide the bases for food sovereignty and sustainable ecosystem management
TEK and biodiversity management in agroforestry systems of different socio-ecological contexts of the Tehuacán Valley
Transformation of natural ecosystems into intensive agriculture is a main factor causing biodiversity loss worldwide. Agroforestry systems (AFS) may maintain biodiversity, ecosystem benefits and human wellbeing, they have therefore high potential for concealing production and conservation. However, promotion of intensive agriculture and disparagement of TEK endanger their permanence. A high diversity of AFS still exist in the world and their pote…
Traditional climate knowledge
Traditional climate knowledge includes the understanding of weather events and weather changes at different time scales (hours, days, weeks, and seasons). The ability to interpret weather events thanks to the accumulated knowledge about the climate through generations may prove today a relevant tool for improving agricultural practices and dealing with local and global socio-ecological changes
Agroforestry systems of the lowland alluvial valleys of the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Biosphere Reserve
BACKGROUND: Agroforestry systems (AFS) are valuable production systems that allow concealing benefits provision with conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services. We analysed AFS of the zone of alluvial valleys of the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Valley (TCV), Mexico, the most intensive agricultural systems within a region recognized for harbouring one of the most ancient agricultural experience of the New World. We hypothesized that the biodiversit…
Plant management and biodiversity conservation in Náhuatl homegardens of the Tehuacán Valley, Mexico
BACKGROUND: The Tehuacán Valley is one of the areas of Mesoamerica with the oldest history of plant management. Homegardens are among the most ancient management systems that currently provide economic benefits to people and are reservoirs of native biodiversity. Previous studies estimated that 30% of the plant richness of homegardens of the region are native plant species from wild populations. We studied in Náhuatl communities the proportion of…
