"Much of agriculture in Africa is of very low productivity. Very low inputs of fertilizers and nutrients.You could have the current agricultural output of the Africa tropical forest region in 40 percent of its current agricultural land, leaving 60 percent of the land available for forests if the agriculture was intensified. So, it's not a simple tradeoff between more food means more land and therefore less forests."
“非洲的很多农地生产能力都不高，肥料和营养物质的投入量很少。如果农地生产能力得到加强，你可以只用现在40%的农地就可以得到现今非洲热带森林区的农业产量，剩余的60%土地则可以用于发展森林。所以，更多的食物需要更多的土地就要减少森林面积的方式并不是一个简单的折衷方案，三者之间并不是必然相连的。”
