Agroecology and Organic farming

Agroforestry and Sustainable Land Management

Agroforestry integrates trees and shrubs with agricultural crops, offering diverse ecological and economic benefits. This track will explore agroforestry practices that improve soil fertility, enhance biodiversity, and sequester carbon. Experts will discuss how agroforestry can mitigate the effects of deforestation, reduce erosion, and support sustainable land management. Case studies will highlight successful agroforestry models and their potential to increase farm resilience, improve ecosystem services, and diversify income streams. Participants will learn how to implement agroforestry in various climates and landscapes, making this track valuable for farmers, land managers, and environmental advocates interested in sustainable land-use practices.
