Assessing Agroforestry’s Impact on Water and Ecosystems
SLU brings deep expertise in tree-based restoration, agroforestry, and sustainable land management, with a strong focus on how trees and forests interact with water systems. In AfroGrow, SLU leads the assessment of how different agroforestry practices affect water dynamics and water security across diverse landscapes. By exploring the role of trees in regulating microclimates and supporting healthy ecosystems, SLU helps ensure that agroforestry strategies contribute to long-term environmental resilience. It also supports the development of species databases, helping guide the selection of plants and trees suited to local conditions.
