What are some successful agroforestry case studies?

There are several successful agroforestry case studies worldwide. For instance, in Kenya, farmers have integrated trees with crops, improving soil fertility and increasing yields.

Can you give me more details about the Kenyan case?

Sure! In Kenya, the 'Green Belt Movement' has helped farmers plant trees alongside crops, which enhances biodiversity and provides shade, leading to better crop resilience.

What benefits did the farmers see from this practice?

Farmers reported increased crop yields, improved soil health, and additional income from selling timber and fruits from the trees.

Are there any agroforestry case studies in tropical regions?

Yes, in Brazil, agroforestry systems have been implemented in the Amazon, combining native trees with cocoa and coffee, which helps restore degraded land.
