Cultivating Change: Agroforestry for Climate & Community Resilience

 Agroforestry can foster productive ecosystems which generate improved agricultural yields, supporting and enhancing famer livelihoods.

Agroforestry farmers can also obtain multiple streams of revenue from additional products such as fruit, timber, and nuts. This diversification stabilises earnings by reducing reliance on a single harvest, increasing resilience to climate and market risk.    

Agroforestry systems create diverse, structurally complex habitats for a range of native flora and fauna, including pollinators and natural pest predators. 

Through restoring native vegetation and improving soil health, agroforestry also strengthens ecosystem services such as water regulation, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration.  

Agroforestry provides longevity and permanence of carbon sequestration from tree biomass and increased organic input into soils, where carbon can remain for decades to centuries. By centering on carbon removal, our agroforestry initiatives generate greater confidence from credit purchasers that carbon savings will be upheld.  

By placing focus on the development of agroforestry systems during initial project stages, we aim to to build a community of project beneficiaries that can collectively shape and guide the design and implementation of future nature-based projects within the landscape.
