This art book contains over 350 color photographs by Marzio Marzot, documenting information on traditional food production systems, scientific details and notes from a journey through one of the world' s outstanding region: the Lake Chad Basin in Africa. It provides an insight into the life and customs of the local farmers, fishermen and pastoralists who foster, maintain and utilize biodiversity in their traditional agricultural systems, thereby deploying the knowledge and techniques that they have accumulated over many centuries. FAO promotes the sharing of experiences and awareness related to the role of rural people in conserving and sustainably using agricultural biodiversity. Building on the local knowledge and social organization of farmers is indispensable. The images in this book are a tribute to the knowledge and work of farmers and their care for the land.

Reporting on a research project, environmental economists, most from York University, offer case studies of the economic causes of biodiversity loss in a range of ecosystems, including wetlands, montane forests, tropical moist forests, semi-arid savannas, and lakes, discussing the policy options for conserving biodiversity in each case. They also analyze in detail the environmental consequences of policy reform in Ghana on the large and small scale, and present practical recommendations for implementing the Convention on Biological Diversity. Among the other areas they consider are the Hadejiia-Nguru wetlands of northern Nigeria, Nyae Nyae in Namibia, the Marsabit Forest Reserve, and demersal and gillnet fisheries in Malawi.
