Abstract:

This dataset captures the economic value of ecosystem services generated by agroforestry systems in Africa. It is based on a systematic literature review (SLR) as well as focus group discussions conducted in selected countries across Africa. The dataset is composed of 164 variables. Descriptive variables indicate details such as source, country and specific location, tree/crop species, sapling survival rate and spacing between trees. The economic factors like inflation deflation and exchange rate are listed. The actual economic values are then divided into costs and benefits. The total costs are separated into maintenance costs and establishment costs. Total, establishment and maintenance costs as well as total benefits are given in USD 2020, the individual value categories are expressed in the currencies used in the original sources for traceability. The cost variables mainly refer to inputs and labour, while the benefits include variables such as income, yield, tree fruits, and sale of tree products.
