Forest, Foods and Nutrition - Hardcover

by Alessandra Durazzo (Guest Editor), Massimo Lucarini (Guest Editor), Massimo Zaccardelli (Guest Editor)

The Special Issue, entitled "Forest, Food and Nutrition", is focused on understanding of the intersection and linking existing between forests, food, and nutrition. Forest ecosystems are an important biodiversity environment resource for many species. Forests and trees play a key role in food production and have a relevant impact also on nutrition. Plants and animals in the forests enable nutrient-rich food sources to be available, and can provide important contributions to dietary diversity, quality, and quantity.
