One of the key outputs of the Sustainable Farming in Tropical Asian Landscapes (SFITAL) project is a roadmap for sustainable cacao development in Davao de Oro. Since sustainable commodity development also related to other land uses over the landscape, World Agroforestry (ICRAF) applies a landscape approach and uses a spatially-explicit tool called R-FALLOW (Forest, Agroforestry, Low-value Land, or Waste?). R-FALLOW is used to assess economic-ecological trade-offs of various land-use scenarios. It takes into consideration local stakeholders—from decision makers to smallholder farmers—in terms of labor, allocation of land and finances for future land uses, aboveground carbon storage of the landscape, and possible land use changes in state-owned lands and forestlands.
