Non-timber forest products from the tropical forests of Africa : a bibliography

The objective of this bibliography is to provide an overview of available literature (up to January 1997) concerning non-timber forest products (NTFPs) in the tropical forests of Africa. With this publication, the Netherlands Committee for IUCN hopes to facilitate and encourage the work of government institutions, NGOs and others who wish to engage in studies or activities on NTFPs in tropical Africa. Included in the bibliography are the tropical lowland forests, swamp forests, montane forests and mangroves of West, Central and East Africa and Madagascar.
