Degraded lands hold promise in feeding 9 billion, while preserving forests
http://news.mongabay.com/2012/0329-swf_degraded_lands_opportunity_clay.html
Making productive use of degraded lands and boosting productivity of small-holder farmers are key to meeting surging global consumption of agricultural products while preserving critical wildlife habitats, said an agricultural expert on the sidelines of the Skoll World Forum for Social Entrepreneurship in Oxford.
Speaking ahead of a panel on "Transforming Markets to Save Forests", Jason Clay, Senior Vice President of Market Transformation at WWF, told mongabay.com that there are an estimated 800 million to 1.6 billion hectares of degraded land worldwide that could be suitable for agricultural production. Cultivating these lands could reduce pressure on critical ecosystems including rainforests, peat swamps, and high-biodiversity savannas.
