Agroforestry in Europe: a farmer testimony

Agroforestry (AF) is the practice of deliberately integrating woody vegetation (trees or shrubs) with crop and/or animal systems to benefit from the resulting ecological and economic interactions.

In Europe, agroforestry practices occupy over 20.5 million hectares. This video features AF farmers from the 9 participating regions of AFINET, focusing on the diversity of systems around Europ, their characteristics and their potential.

With trees against drought – How agroforestry protects our fields (arteRE documentary on September 8th - 19:40 CEST)

This summer has been a hot one: heat, forest fires, droughts all over Europe. Climate change is here – how can we mitigate the consequences? More and more farmers see a solution in agroforestry: rows of trees in fields, in whose shade crops and animals thrive better, the soil is protected from drying out and erosion, carbon is sequestered and biodiversity is created.
