Around 80% of global deforestation is linked to agriculture, whether industrialised (32%) or family farming (68%). This means that we cannot work on the conservation and restoration of forest ecosystems without taking into account the economic activities linked to them. In addition to the issues common to the three basins of developing food agriculture without deforestation, there are agricultural issues specific to each region. In Asia, deforestation is linked in particular to palm cultivation or aquaculture; in Africa, it will be linked above all to energy wood, cocoa or cotton constraints. As for Latin America, the urgent need is for the soya and livestock sectors.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Focus on wood energy<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wood is referred to as “wood energy” when it is used for energy purposes: production of heat, electricity or 2nd generation biofuels after processing. It is the leading source of renewable energy consumed worldwide and the leading source of energy in Africa (70% of uses according to the International Energy Agency), particularly for cooking daily meals, which is essential for the health of the most vulnerable children in particular, even if the smoke released can sometimes be toxic.<\/p>\n

Family collection of firewood in rural areas has a limited impact on wood resources, but the urban supply of wood energy is considered to be a major cause of deforestation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n

In most sub-Saharan African countries, almost all of the wood is harvested from wood resources (FAO, 2017), with less than 5% currently coming from dedicated plantations. The time needed to reconstitute the woody cover cited in the literature ranges from nine to thirty years, but most felling takes place every 7 to 15 years.<\/p>\n

The challenge is therefore to work in the major supply basins on projects to encourage more efficient charcoal production by training charcoal makers, appropriate reforestation, and the development and marketing of improved portable and solid cooking stoves, with the close involvement of local entrepreneurs, communities and governments (Le bois, \u00e9nergie de premi\u00e8re n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 en Afrique, G\u00e9rard Madon, 2017).<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
