1 Indigenous Fallow Management (IFM) By: Malcolm Cairns, Kurniatun Hairiah, Paul Burgers

2 Increase economic value of fallow vegetation Accelerate soil fertility to sustain food cropping Promotion/cultivation of forest products Integration of livestock Perennial-annual rotational farming Dispersed trees on cropland Cyclical/permanent Agroforest Shrub-based fallows Cover crops/ green manure Imperata grasslands / fallows Land pressure No fallow management in traditional shifting cultivation Permanent annual cropping Degradation? Links with urban areas Tree-based improved fallows

3 Promotion of preferred volunteer species

4 Imperata cylindrica Roof thatching

5 Wild mushrooms at fresh market
