Practitioner’s Field Guide - Agroforestry for Climate Resilience

Global Food and Nutrition Security

One of the key goals of the Vision and Strategic Plan for ASEAN Cooperation in Food, Agriculture and Forestry 2016–2025, is ‘expansion of resilient agroforestry systems, where ecologically and economically appropriate’, expressed in an action programme under Strategic Thrust 4: To increase resilience to climate change, natural disasters and other shocks.

In line with the effort to support wide-scale adoption of resilient agroforestry systems in ASEAN Member States, three knowledge products have been developed by World Agroforestry (ICRAF):

  1. ASEAN Guidelines for Agroforestry Development
  2. Training Manual: Agroforestry for Climate-Resilient Landscapes
  3. Practitioner’s Field Guide: Agroforestry for Climate-Resilience

The guide has been developed to support the continuous learning and capacity building of agroforestry practitioners. It provides extension workers, farmers and other practitioners with technical guidance on designing, establishing and managing on-farm agroforestry practices that can assist with coping with the negative impacts of extreme climatic events.
