This field guide is co-published by the Project for the ECBFMP, Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Region III, KASAKALIKASAN, and ASEAN IPM Knowledge Network integrates best practices and learning experiences on agroforestry farming systems in the Philippines and the Asia-Pacific Region based on the shared experiences of FFS facilitators, farmer-practitioners and technical experts. Field walks, soil maps, farmer-validated baseline surveys, material-flow charts and the ballot box exercise, with a broad listing of possible questions and answers serve as diagnostic tools.
Agroforestry is a traditional practice of integrating trees with crops and/or animals. Agroforestry is gaining increasing recognition as a way to restore degraded sloping lands, to contribute to food security and for economic development in DPR Korea. Agroforestry can greatly help to transform landscapes where trees are a keystone of productivity and thus deliver multiple benefits for humans and ecosystems. This guide contains a set of technical illustrations that provide practical, user-friendly information for planning a variety of agroforestry practices.
