My research interest is in small-scale forestry, agroforestry and community forestry particularly in increasing the social, economic and ecological functions of trees and forests. The research projects I was involved in include biophysical forestry experiments (nursery and fields trial), socio-economic research, systems modelling and Geographic Information System (GIS) in forestry planning.
