"Agroforestry in a Changing Climate" addresses one of the major threats to our environment—climate change. It has started affecting agriculture, human health, and animal lives. Greenhouse gases, mainly emitted from human activities, are significantly impacting our planet. This book focuses on how climate change has evolved over the centuries and its effects on the environment, highlighting how agroforestry systems can mitigate these impacts.
We delve into agroforestry as an effective land and natural resource management system. Agroforestry allows farmers to produce food and generate income, even with limited resources, while improving product quality. We explain how to implement agroforestry systems and how they help combat climate change.
Agroforestry systems can be adapted to various regions, including watersheds, arid areas, and regions with different climatic conditions. In agroforestry, trees and crops grow together, sometimes integrating animals as well. We explore traditional agroforestry practices still in use today, showcasing case studies that highlight their effectiveness in addressing climate change.
This book provides a comprehensive guide to agroforestry practices, management, and technologies used in agriculture. It is an essential resource for students, professionals, and anyone interested in sustainable agriculture and climate change mitigation.
