Figure 43. Percentage of farms cropping trees at district level<br />
Figure 44. Farm Types (Number, Percentage and Percentage of total surveyed area)<br />
According to this categorisation 8 farm types<br />
are distinguished (rice can be either upland or<br />
lowland) (Appendix III):<br />
- rice only (FT1)<br />
- rice & other food (FT2)<br />
- rice & other food & tree for subsistence (FT3)<br />
- rice & tree for subsistence (FT4)<br />
- other tree for subsistence farms (FT5)<br />
- rice & tree for cash (FT6)<br />
- rice & other food & tree for cash (FT7)<br />
- only cash tree farms (FT8).<br />
Figure 44 shows the number and the<br />
proportion of farms and farm area belonging to<br />
each farm type. Overall, the introduced farm<br />
typology highlights the differences between the<br />
subsistence (mainly rice) oriented Northern and<br />
the cash (coffee and cocoa) oriented Eastern<br />
district. This typology becomes particularly useful
