Evergreen Agriculture - the combination of trees in farming systems (agroforestry) with the principles of conservation farming - is emerging as an affordable and accessible science-based solution to caring better for the land and increasing smallholder food production.
The World Agroforestry Centre has compiled a web page to consolidate information available on Evergreen Agriculture into a central location.
