Agroforestry is an integrated land use system which combines trees, crops and livestock to enhance the productivity as well as the environmental sustainability. It mimics the natural ecosystem which helps agroforestry systems to perform well. One of the significant roles of agroforestry systems is carbon sequestration by capturing the carbon dioxide from atmosphere and storing it in biomass and soil. Additionally, agroforestry practices improve soil fertility by enhancing organic matter content, microbial activity and nutrient cycling. Agroforestry systems have the potential to mitigate climate change and contribute in sustainable development.
