dc.description.abstract | The word domestication has had several definitions and interpretations since its first appearance in the English language in 1639. Most commonly the word is used with reference to annual food crop plants that have undergone adaptation in agricultural systems. Archaeologists concur that annual crop domestication began with wheat 10,000 years ago in Eurasia at a time of rising human populations and over-exploitation of local resources (Simmonds 1979). Tree domestication is a far more recent phenomenon than annual-crop domestication. One of the earliest records of tree domestication is that of manipulating pollination in Ficus trees 2800 years ago by the prophet Amos (Dafni 1992). Domestication of other agro forestry trees has received substantial interest following a number of articles and conferences, most significantly the 1992 IUFRO Conference in Edinburgh, UK (Leakey and Newton 1994). In agro forestry, tree domestication is concerned with thousands of tree species and millions of subsistence farmer concerned with on-farm use of firewood, fodder, fruit, live fence, medicinal and fallow trees. The next large change in agro forestry worldwide, will probably on a greater focus on cultivating trees for cash and most likely for amelioration of problem soils. For these reasons, the World Agro forestry Center introduced a wider concept of tree domestication: Domestication of agro forestry trees is an accelerated and human induced evolution to bring species into wider cultivation through a farmer-driven or market-led process. Tree domestication is the naturalization of a species to improve its cultivation and use for humankind. Basically, any activity that improves the ability of people to grow and utilize trees – either for products or services – is domestication. (Simons 1996). | en_US |
