Mr. Paul BOSTYN

I am finishing my Master 2 degree in sustainable development and geomatics at the university Paris 1 – Panthéon-Sorbonne et l’Ecole Nationale des Sciences Géographiques. Before this Master 2 I studied environmental economics at Paris 1-Panthéon-Sorbonne. My internship (funded by CLand) is on Agroforestry in Sub-Saharan Africa and more specifically on the comparison between the yield of conventional farming and agroforestry. We want to mesure how the agroforestry can impact the yield in comparison with conventional farming. We also want to mesure how many spaces can be free up with the most productive agroforestry. To this purpose we are making a meta-analysis and we model the relationship between yield, distance from the tree and the agroforestry systems.
