Agroforestry key to Britain's Woodlands

 

One of the few silver linings to the Brexit clouds is the opportunity it gives the United Kingdom to experiment with different ways of supporting its farmers - and, judging by the herculean efforts needed to try to make the CAP agroforestry-friendly, those of us still in Europe may envy our British colleagues this opportunity!

IUAF has a new home!

 

Agroforestry may be the oldest form of agriculture, with evidence of its practice exceeding 10,000 years. But its rebirth in the modern world is a fairly recent affair. ICRAF, now know as World Agroforestry, was the first international body devoted to it and just celebrated its 40th anniversary. It was followed almost 30 years later by agroforestry federations in North America and in Europe.

Prince of Wales interest in Agroforestry

In late July, EURAF member and guiding light of the Woodland Forum, Stephen Briggs, had the pleasure of hosting a most distinguished visitor on his farm: His Royal Highness Charles, Prince of Wales. The Anglophiles amongst us will probably have already heard of the prince’s deep and abiding interest in sustainable agriculture and regenerative land management.
