Fuelwood problems are now recognized as rarely generalizable. Fuelwood use and scarcity reflect complex and variable interactions between local production systems and the environmental resources on which they are based.

The adaptation measures applied by small-scale farmers in response to fuelwood scarcity are typically unsustainable with regard to socio-economic, environmental, and food security dimensions.
