Abstract
ⶠBrazil nut trees are capable of resprouting after successive slash and burn cycles. ⶠResprout densities increase with the number of shifting cultivation cycles. ⶠFallows enriched with Brazil nut trees are protected by landholders. ⶠFallow protection reverses the classical process of Amazon forest degradation.
