In this episode, Dr. Sarah Lovell discusses the various uses and forms of agroforestry, how agroforestry can benefit both farmers and their surrounding communities, and some tips for implementing agroforestry at scale.

  • What are the main functions of agroforests?
  • What roadblocks might farmers face to implementing agroforestry?
  • How can agroforestry best be adapted to urban environments?
  • How can groups partner to get the best out of agroforestry at scale?
