Potentials of native plant species in
Agroforestry systems for reduction
of greenhouse gas emissions and
improvement of local
environmental and communities‘
life conditions

Ana Lucia Cadena Gonzalez-Thiele
Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster (Germany)
Location

Municipalities of Campo Hermoso and Zetaquira, Boyacá, Colombia

Scenery
• Lack of local plans and strategies – only isolated efforts
• Lack of information on dimensions of losses because of
depletion of resources and global warming at local level
(long heavy rains)
• Lack of research on potentials of Agroforestry systems
• Depletion of traditional knowledge and native plants
resources, lack of strategies to maintain these species.
• Lack of motivation of local community
Some effects of heavy rains

Zea mays subsp. mays
Preliminary results
Campo Hermoso

Zetaquira

• 15 endangered medicinal
species
9 native species
• 20 dissapeared medicinal
species
7 native species
• Urtica dioica L. popularity
(IUV)

• 7 endangered medicinal
species
3 native species
• 13 dissapeared medicinal
species
6 native species
• Ruta graveolens L.
popularity
Main Objectives
• To collect quantitative information on greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions in tropical small scale farming systems of Boyacá,
Colombia.
• To analyse the potential of agroforestry systems with native multipurpose and medicinal plants to reduce GHG emissions.
• To promote the cultivation and conservation of native plant
species, especially endangered species.
• To add benefits to local production of food, medicine and to
improve economy.
Hypotheses
• The potential of Agroforestry systems with cultivation
of introduced medicinal plant species is equal to
Agroforestry systems with cultivation of native species
in terms of mitigation of Green House Gas emissions.
• Native multipurpose and medicinal plant species are
often not cultivated in Agroforestry systems due to
the lack of productivity.
• Lack of knowledge of the productivity that native and
multipurpose medicinal plant species can offer to the
local economy has limited investments in projects
related to the cultivation of these species.
Methods
Introduction and
diagnostics

systems and
selected species
-Structured
interviews
-Analysis of fluxes
of gases
-Sampling of
gasses
-Statistical
analyses

homegarden
model

Evaluation of
impact on
livelihoods

-Design of local
homegarden
model with
selected species/
based on local
necessities
(community and
environment)

Productivity
projections

-Promotion of
cultivation of the
homegarden
model in comunal
plots and within
local schools

-Food

  • 6. Main Objectives • To collect quantitative information on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in tropical small scale farming systems of Boyacá, Colombia. • To analyse the potential of agroforestry systems with native multipurpose and medicinal plants to reduce GHG emissions. • To promote the cultivation and conservation of native plant species, especially endangered species. • To add benefits to local production of food, medicine and to improve economy.
  • 7. Hypotheses • The potential of Agroforestry systems with cultivation of introduced medicinal plant species is equal to Agroforestry systems with cultivation of native species in terms of mitigation of Green House Gas emissions. • Native multipurpose and medicinal plant species are often not cultivated in Agroforestry systems due to the lack of productivity. • Lack of knowledge of the productivity that native and multipurpose medicinal plant species can offer to the local economy has limited investments in projects related to the cultivation of these species.
  • 8. Methods Introduction and diagnostics -Introduction of the project -Survey -Semi-structured Interviews -Data analyses -Selection of species -local interest and necessities-Previous results Sampling and collection of data -Selection of plots with agroforestry systems and selected species -Structured interviews -Analysis of fluxes of gases -Sampling of gasses -Statistical analyses Design of homegarden model Evaluation of impact on livelihoods -Design of local homegarden model with selected species/ based on local necessities (community and environment) Productivity projections -Promotion of cultivation of the homegarden model in comunal plots and within local schools -Food production? -Medicinals production? -Influence on local economy? -Potentials off GHG mitigation?
