*************************************************************** ----------- AGRFORESTRY IN THE UK ---------------------------- Newsletter of the UK Agroforestry Research Discussion Forum ------------- FIRST ISSUE OUT NOW ----------------------------- *************************************************************** AGROFORESTRY IN THE UK is a newsletter produced quarterly at the University of Wales, Bangor for the UK Agroforestry Research Discussion Forum. It contains short news items about the progress of agroforestry research projects and the people doing them, and longer research and discussion articles describing research projects and topical isuues in agroforestry in more detail. It is published in February, May, August and November, the first issue (VOL 1 No. 1) is available on request from The Editor, Agroforestry in the U.K., School of Agriculture and Forest Science, University of Wales, Bangor, Gwynedd LL57 2UW. The first issue is free, subsequent issues will only be sent to subscribers. Subscription for VOL 1 is #10. People who have already received a complimentary copy of the first issue - please subscribe soonest. The next issue is the bumper annual report issue and only enough copies for subscribers will be printed!! Please also subscribe individually - the price is low to permit individuals to subscribe and a large print run done that reduces unit cost. If only one copy goes to an institution with several researchers reading the newsletter the price will have to go up. This would be a shame, the idea is to get fast circulation of information, views and ideas that implies readers receiving their own copy. So far 22 subscriptions have been received, 5 from institution libraries! Library subscriptions are good for drawing in the more casual reader but I hope that active researchers will also order their own subscriptions. We need a vigorous response to the newsletter to make it viable. Fergus Sinclair Lecturer in Agroforestry School of Agriculture and Forest Science University of Wales, Bangor, Gwynedd LL57 2UW
