Agribusiness and Livelihood Systems in the Amazon

This lecture presents key agrarian systems in the Amazon (e.g., crops, livestock), their role in deforestation and degradation, fragmentation, pollution of waterways, pressures on and/or displacement of Indigenous and Local Communities, and increased greenhouse gas emissions, all of which undermine an array of ecosystem services.
