The document summarizes the challenges facing Ghana's Modified Taungya System (MTS), a joint forestry and agricultural system, and proposes strategies for improving its management. The MTS aims to restore degraded forests and provide livelihoods but faces issues like a lack of income between tree establishment and harvesting, unsecured tenure, and untimely seedling supply. Strategies recommended include generating interim income, formalizing agreements, designing individual-level benefit-sharing, and strengthening multi-stakeholder partnerships to enhance governance. Improving the MTS prospects poverty reduction and sustainable forest management through participatory approaches.
