CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

The document describes a land health surveillance framework to monitor and evaluate land degradation and agroforestry interventions. The framework uses a stratified, randomized sampling approach with sentinel sites, clusters, and plots to collect biophysical data on vegetation, soils, and carbon stocks. Field measurements include woody cover assessments, soil sampling, and allometric methods to estimate biomass and carbon. The goals are to establish baselines, monitor changes over time, target priority areas for interventions, and evaluate outcomes.
