Farm rejuvenation-driven dynamics of live canopy trees and biomass in cocoa agroforests.

Field inventory data collection in 2016 and 2017. Mapping of cocoa trees and associated non-cocoa trees in cocoa agrofrests in the Forest-Savannah transition landscape of Bokito. A total of 4080 trees mapped on farms in cocoa agroforests that were created from previously Savannah and forests land cover. Aim of the study is to assess temporal dynamics of tree horizontal structure, and the contribution of farm rejuvenation to changes in the relative tree abundance in canopy strata.
