Abstract
Mangroves are the trees and shrubs that grow in the edge of the sea and thus are cultivated with saline waters. Their principal product is wood, a renewable resource that substitutes for fossil fuels. Management of mangroves requires little fossil fuel expenditure and mangrove forests produce prawns, finfish and shellfish as byproducts. It is proposed that attention to aspects of mangrove management, physiology and ecology, breeding and selection, and biological spin-off products should make it possible to increase mangrove area and productivity for the benefit of people living along many tropical and subtropical shores of the world.
