Effects of Inga densiflora on the microclimate of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) and overall biomass under optimal growing conditions in Costa Rica

TL;DR: Investigating the impact of Inga densiflora, a very common shade tree in Central America, on the microclimate, yield and vegetative development of shaded coffee in comparison to coffee monoculture found Inga-shaded plantations appeared more advantageous than MC in optimal conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Agroforestry associating coffee and Inga densiflora results in complementarity for water uptake and decreases deep drainage in Costa Rica

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the impact of Inga densiflora on water use and drainage in a coffee agroforestry system (AFS) compared to coffee monoculture (MC) in Costa Rica.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leaf area index as an indicator of ecosystem services and management practices: An application for coffee agroforestry

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between the HR-LAI farm map and NDVI from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) was calibrated with LAI 2000 and a new technique based on the cumulative distribution of LAI along transects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coffee agroforestry systems in Central America: II. Development of a simple process-based model and preliminary results

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a simple dynamic model of coffee agroforestry systems, which includes the physiology of vegetative and reproductive growth of coffee plants, and its response to different growing conditions.
