Cooperation agreement among farmers to build an efficient silvopastoral system
In Italy the average size of farms is about 8 hectares. Such a size does not allow large investments and often does not guarantee to the farmer an adequate income.
The current climate change, with huge fluctuations of meteoric events and increasingly extreme events, such as the drought of 2017 in the Mediterranean areas, increases the farmers’ uncertainties. To make sure that the farm is ready to face possible considerable losses of production in certain sectors, it is necessary to direct the agricultural activity towards the diversification of production.
