2. Tree based components in landscapes
Tree products provide enormous global
revenue and demand is rising
Tree based systems provide income streams
and many environmental services
....... and they complement well
other landscape management options
3. Investment opportunities & constraints
Investors include existing
land managers; value
adding entrepreneurs;
and external
finance, agribusiness, and
funds
Diverse constraints inhibit
greater private investment
in landscapes
‘Soft’ public investment can
ease constraints
5. Scaling up landscape restoration approaches
Trees & landscape restoration must be addressed in
the decentralization agenda
Local value addition increases incentives for
landscape restoration
Policies that support good resource governance
encourage private investment
