Abstract
Due to mounting and conflicting human pressures, stakeholders in northern Thailand are facing a crucial policy problem typical of many regions in Asia, namely how to plan for the sustainable and rational use, protection, conservation and management of land and water resources. This project focuses on assessment of upland agricultural systems. It uses an international, inter-disciplinary team approach to develop decision support tools that will assist the Royal Project Foundation, government and other stakeholders to identify and assess the implications of a series of ‘what if’ scenarios. The framework aims to be sufficiently generic and portable to be applicable in other agricultural, agro-forestry and aquaculture resource management environments.
