Choosing quality planting material

The plant quality determines success in agroforestry establishment; particularly in relation to root development. Once the farmer has selected which tree species to use it is then important to select seedlings that are best suited to the farm conditions but also ensure that the seed stock is healthy (i.e. it comes without pests or diseases).

Featured Farm of the day

Località il Piano, Italy

The orchards are grazed by geese and Comisana dairy sheep, while Alpine goats and Jersey cows are kept out to prevent damage to the fruit trees. All animals rotate through pastures and the forest, grazing on native grasses, forest trees and acorns.
