We were thrilled to participate in the Agroforestry Conference Armenia - AFCA 2024! The current discussions underscore the vital need in Armenia for effective water management systems in agriculture. Mr @Hambartsym Matevosyian, advisor to the Prime Minister, emphasised the importance of agroforestry systems for smallholder farmers and building community trust through improved frameworks. Keynote speaker at the event IUAF's president Patrick Worms expertise comes at a pivotal moment where outdated policies are being transformed in Armenia, and his expertise in bringing insights from regions rich in agriculture, where both large and small farmers are regenerating agricultural landscapes through agroforestry. Stay tuned for updates from AFAC 2024! 🌳💧 #AFAC2024 #SustainableAgriculture #WaterManagement #Agroforestry #IUAF

🌳 “No trees, no humans”—it's that simple! Here’s why they’re essential: #WeatherResilience: Trees act as nature’s buffer against extreme weather. They protect crops and livestock by keeping the soil moist and providing shelter from storms. Ever notice how, after weeks of #drought, the areas around trees stay green? That’s trees at work! #SoilHealth: Trees’ deep roots access nutrients that regular crops can’t. When their leaves fall and decompose, they return those nutrients to the soil, reducing the need for synthetic fertilisers. #PestControl: Trees increase #biodiversity, inviting birds that help control crop pests. This means fewer pesticides and a healthier ecosystem. #EconomicValue: Trees provide long-term economic benefits through timber, fruit, and other products. They also help stabilise farm productivity in the face of climate change. 💬 Listening to Patrick Worms talk about #agroforestry is like music to your ears—his words blend science and poetry. ▶ If you want to learn more about trees and their role in agriculture, check out our episode from two weeks ago! #Regenag #Agroforestry Deep Seed Raphael Esterhazy

#Agroforestry at scale by Propagate
What does it take to meaningfully scale agroforestry? There’s no better opportunity to learn than this year’s Regenerative Food Systems Investment Forum! Next week I'll share the story behind the largest agroforestry project in the United States. Propagate and Agroforestry Partners have transitioned nearly 2,000 acres in the last 2 years at Hill Farms in KY. ⚠️ Spoiler alert: Partnerships are critical to meaningful scale. Partnerships are why I'll be sharing the stage to walk through making this project a success. Looking forward to telling the story with Keavin Hill, Sara Balawajder, Brett Hundley, CFA, and Caesaré Assad. Learn more and register here: https://lnkd.in/ezdM4vKg

🌳 New Publication: Raising trees and livelihoods Agroforestry, the integration of trees into farming systems, is an ancient practice with modern relevance. This new book by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), with contributions from CIFOR-ICRAF researchers, synthesizes over a decade of research from more than 15 ACIAR-supported projects, showcasing how smallholder farmers in tropical regions use agroforestry to enhance food security, nutrition, and livelihoods. It highlights the critical role agroforestry plays in reforesting degraded landscapes, supporting commercial timber industries, and contributing to climate change mitigation efforts.

Change begins in the classroom. 🌱The future of farming depends on our ability to transform practices now and cultivate a passion and knowledge among young people and future farmers. Our member, Irish Agroforestry Forum, understands this very well. With their Cultivating Resilience Through Organic Farming with Trees (CROFT) project partners, they promote agroforestry and organic farming practices in Ireland, including primary schools. Apart from other educational activities such as an educational poster series, students from 12 schools receive handcrafted willow baskets filled with organic vegetables 🥕🍅 from local organic farms, Red Shed Organic Farm and Manna Organic Farm. Such initiatives are key to paving the way for agroforestry and addressing the generational renewal of farmers, one of the most pressing issues in the world of farming today. 💡How do you promote agroforestry among young people? Share your experiences in the comments! More about the CROFT project: https://lnkd.in/ebgXdrv6

“It was all savanna around here,” she says, smiling. “But I have turned it into a forest and did it with my own hands. Everyone who passes through here appreciates it, which makes me happy.” @Dorcas Tshabu A fantastic project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as we like to see them! #agroforestry #DRC #livelihoods African Development Bank Group https://lnkd.in/dtNM2xNa
