| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to evaluate importance of biocultural diversity conservation through utilization of plant resources based on traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) in the mountainous villages. We clarified the habitat characteristics and ecological traits of resource plants which have been still in use. The semi-natural ecosystem (such as ecosystem of the terraced paddy fields) which represent the reginal plant species diversity still have been able to provide more resource plants, especially for food, among those in the overall landscape. Among various cultural values provided from semi-natural ecosystems, dietary culture can be the most effective component to be inherited by future generations for conservation of biocultural diversity in the depopulating mountainous villages. The nationwide evaluation of importance of dietary culture for biocultural diversity conservation is needed to test regional specificity and applicability of this study.
