Role of Agroforestry in Climate Resilience
Agroforestry is the integration of trees and shrubs into crop and animal farming systems. It is a sustainable land management practice that enhances biodiversity, improves soil health, and increases resilience against climate change.
Through agroforestry, we can create ecosystems that mimic natural environments while providing economic benefits to farmers. These systems reduce soil erosion, improve water retention, and sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 🌿🌱
Benefits of Agroforestry:
- Enhances biodiversity and habitat diversity.
- Improves soil fertility and structure.
- Increases carbon sequestration capabilities.
- Reduces atmospheric CO2 levels.
- Provides diversified income streams for farmers.
