🌟 Exciting news! 🌟 Soil Association Scotland is delighted to have been awarded #KTIF funding to deliver Planning for Change: A Whole Farm Approach. The programme will highlight how #WholeFarmPlans can be translated into integrated, sustainable practices and demonstrate how a whole farm approach – as featured in The Scottish Government’s Vision for Agriculture – can help deliver on #ClimateAndNature goals 🌍. "The Knowledge Transfer and Innovation Fund (KTIF) will allow us to support farms and crofts across Scotland to share knowledge to build resilience, improve sustainability and restore nature.” Colleen McCulloch, Senior Farming Programmes Manager The project will also explore how the Whole Farm Planning (WFP) framework can be used to transition towards more regenerative and agroecological approaches, supporting uptake and implementation. Whole farm planning can provide a decision-making framework that takes the entire holding and its assets into consideration, integrating the different enterprises on farm and making the most of available resources – which can deliver environmental and economic co-benefits. It can also ensure that ecologically sound practices on one part of the farm are not compromised by intensive practices on another. 🦋🐄 Learn more about our project, and get involved, here: https://lnkd.in/eDKG6hvs #SustainableFarming #ClimateAction #RegenerativeAgriculture #Agroforestry #SoilHealth

Deeply inspired by collaboration, community, and co-creation! It was an absolute privilege to attend and participate in the second circle gathering of the Global EcoVillage Network Bharat - CoCreators on October 13th. The gathering was a melting pot of inspiring discussions and meaningful engagements on themes that are central to regenerative development and sustainable futures, including: - Sustainable Living & Livelihoods - Food Forestry & Multi-functional Agroforestry - Organic farming & Farm Waste Management - Self-Analysis & Community Enablement - Project Planning, Outcome Building, and Implementation - Clean Energy Solutions - Cultural, Economic, Social, and Ecologic Integration This full-systems approach encourages holistic thinking, blending technical knowledge with cultural wisdom. I look forward to building innovative projects and creating sustainable opportunities—collaborating with this incredible community and partners across sectors. Together, let's move towards building sustainable, thriving ecosystems. 🌱 #GENBharat #SustainableDevelopment #EcoVillage #Regenerative #Agroforestry #CommunityDevelopment #CleanEnergy #OrganicFarming #SystemsThinking #Partnerships

🌿We believe that continuous engagement with stakeholders and effectively communicating the benefits of #agroforestry are crucial for achieving broader support. 🌱 Recently, our partners Simon Swatek, representing ReForest, and Marcos Jiménez Martínez from #ABCDR, participated in meeting of the Agroforestry and Agricultural Woody Structures Working Group, part of the Small Farmers Association (#AbL) in Germany. 🌐The virtual event brought together #AbL members and experts from diverse sectors, including practical farming 🚜, arboriculture 🌳, nature conservation 🌾, and agricultural research 📚. 📊🌳 While #ABCDR highlights the biophysical potential of trees in agriculture as carbon sinks, ReForest focuses on various paths to foster #agroforestry adoption across Europe and ways to overcome existing barriers. 🌍During this engaging session, Simon and Marcos introduced ReForest and #ABCDR projects. Both projects take a #holisticapproach, using decision analysis 🔍 and probabilistic modeling 📊 to shape the future of #sustainablefarming. 🌿💡The event participants gained valuable insights into holistic systems analysis, decision-focused research, and the power of expert knowledge in quantitatively assessing the productivity of agroforestry systems. 💚🤝 We are incredibly grateful to the #AbL for this opportunity to engage with a wide range of German agroforestry stakeholders, especially smallholder farmers 🌾—key players in the transformative shift toward sustainable agriculture. ✨ #Agroforestry #SustainableAgriculture #ReForest #ResearchCollaboration #ClimateAction #Agroecology #HorizonEurope #Synergies

In this picture, we’re in a cocoa plantation, measuring the Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) of trees as part of a broader research project on nature recovery and food security. I’m proud to be assisting a postdoc from the University of Oxford on this critical initiative. Our work here focuses on understanding how sustainable agricultural practices can promote ecosystem health while ensuring food security, especially in regions where livelihoods depend on crops like cocoa. By balancing conservation with productivity, we’re exploring ways to protect biodiversity and support communities. 🌍 Every tree measured is a step closer to a more resilient and sustainable future. #Sustainability #FoodSecurity #NatureRecovery #CocoaFarming #EnvironmentalResearch #Conservation #Agroforestry #ResearchAssistant

Agroforestry is a solution for climate variability.
📣 IUAF VIDEO RELEASE 🎥 "What is Agroforestry?" ft Patrick Worms, President of IUAF International Union for Agroforestry 🌳 🌾 🌳 Agroforestry offers farmers diverse ecosystem services and reduced reliance on costly inputs. It creates robust agroecosystems with critical elements such as nutrient recycling, soil conservation, and climate extreme mitigation. This makes agroforestry crucial for sustaining global agricultural productivity, regional ecosystem functionality, and rural livelihoods. 👨🌾 🙌👩🌾 Join IUAF to influence global agroforestry conversations, shape policies, access knowledge, and network.
