Ethnoscientific Understandings of Amazonian Dark Earths
2003
laura german
This chapter illustrates some of the benefits of ethnoscientific research on Amazonian Dark Earths. Ethnoscientific data complement data derived from empirical research in a number of important ways (DeWalt, 1994). Of relevance to research on ADE is the extended temporal perspective provided by long-time users (of the pedological impact of specific practices over time, for example) and a more nuanced understandings of the benefits and limitations of ADE from the perspective of the current and intended beneficiaries themselves. The perspectives of long-time ADE farmers are as of yet little studied, however, and could be productively explored in the effort to build complex understandings of ADE formation, function and intraregional variation
