Summary:

The goal of this study is to examine the marginal lands in Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) economies and evaluate their biomass productivity potential. Twelve categories of marginal lands are identified using the Global Agro-Ecological Zones system of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. Numerous exclusions are applied using state-of-the-art geographic information systems (GIS) to estimate the available marginal lands in APEC economies.
