A new front should be opened on the war against hunger, inadequate shelter, and environmental degradation. This war can be fought with weapons that have been in the arsenal of rural people since time immemorial, and no radical change in their lifestyle will be required. This can best be accomplished by the creation of an internationally fi nanced council for research in agroforestry, to administer a comprehensive program leading to better land use in the tropics... Beyond question, agroforestry can greatly improve life for people in the developing world, and do so within a reasonably short time.
