Mid-Atlantic Agroforestry Project
Mid-Atlantic Agroforestry Project
Agroforestry describes a suite of practices that combine trees with annual or perennial crops and/or livestock in ways that provide economic and ecological benefits to farmers and other landowners across the landscape. These benefits may include improvements in topsoil, livestock, crops, and wildlife; increased productivity of agricultural and horticultural crops; reduced need for energy and chemical inputs; improved water and air quality; enhanced biodiversity and landscape diversity; and diversified local economies.
Capital RC&D is providing administrative support for this project intended to collaborate across political and geographic borders to enhance the science, adoption and efficacy of agroforestry systems through education, research and outreach to natural resource professionals, technical assistance providers, producers and landowners.
