Challenges to rural sustainability increase as swidden farmers adjust to the uneven impacts of agrarian change such as social conflict, material poverty and environmental decline. However, little is known about how swidden farmers engage with the causes and consequences of agrarian change in different political economic contexts. This research will generate a multi-scale comparative assessment (local-regional) of how swidden farmers adjust livelihoods and social relations in response to agrarian change in Laos, Philippine and Malaysian frontiers. It will offer new insights to Australian donors, international academic networks and resource practitioners on how agrarian change affects swidden farmers and local landscapes.

随着被砍伐的农民适应社会冲突、物质贫困和环境恶化等农业变化的不均衡影响，农村可持续性面临的挑战也在增加。 然而，很少有人知道如何swidden农民从事的原因和后果的农业变化在不同的政治经济背景。这项研究将产生一个多尺度的比较评估（地方区域）的swidden农民如何调整生计和社会关系，以应对老挝，菲律宾和马来西亚边境的农业变化。它将为澳大利亚捐助者、国际学术网络和资源从业者提供新的见解，说明农业变化如何影响伐木农民和当地景观。
