Agroforestry and climate change
•
1 like•278 views
Agroforestry has the double potential to address climate change through carbon sequestration and sustainable adaptation. It is a landscape-scale approach that favors synergies between adaptation and mitigation. 53 studies found that converting agriculture to agroforestry increased soil organic carbon by 34% on average, while converting pasture/grassland to agroforestry increased carbon by 10%. Three agroforestry systems studied in Bukidnon, Philippines stored carbon ranging from 92 to 174 metric tons per hectare, with mixed multistorey storing the most at 162 metric tons per hectare. Agroforestry provides tree integration and soil/water conservation benefits.

ROLE OF AGROFORESTRY IN MITIGATION OF CLIMATE CHANGE
This document discusses the role of agroforestry in mitigating climate change. It begins by defining climate change and its causes, then outlines some of the impacts on agriculture like reduced crop yields. It notes that deforestation and land use changes contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. The document then discusses strategies for carbon sequestration, identifying agroforestry as a key approach. Various agroforestry models are presented, and a case study shows higher carbon storage in a silvopastoral system compared to natural grassland. The conclusion is that agroforestry can significantly help mitigate climate change by storing carbon while providing other benefits.
Agroforestry for climate change mitigation and adaptation
This document discusses how agroforestry can help mitigate and adapt to climate change. It provides background on increasing greenhouse gas concentrations and outlines how agroforestry practices like alley cropping, homegardens, and silvopasture can sequester carbon in vegetation and soil. Studies from various countries are cited that measure carbon storage in different agroforestry systems. The document also discusses how agroforestry reduces non-CO2 greenhouse gas emissions like N2O and CH4 by improving nutrient cycling and efficiency. Finally, it describes how agroforestry helps farmers adapt to climate change through increased soil resilience, more efficient land use, and improved crop yields during drought years.

Agroecology
Agroecology is the study of agricultural systems and their interaction with the environment. It focuses on optimizing locally available resources through practices like crop rotation, polycultures, and agroforestry to reduce reliance on external inputs. Key principles of agroecology include recycling nutrients on the farm, integrating crops and livestock, and maintaining biodiversity. Agroecological strategies can improve productivity and sustainability while conserving natural resources long-term.
Climate change and Agriculture: Impact Aadaptation and Mitigation
Climate change refers to a statistically significant variation in either the mean state of the climate or in its Variability, persisting for an extended period (typically decades or longer). For the past some decades, the gaseous composition of earth’s atmosphere is undergoing a significant change, largely through increased emissions from energy, industry and agriculture sectors; widespread deforestation as well as fast changes in land use and land management practices. These anthropogenic activities are resulting in an increased emission of radiatively active gases, viz. carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), popularly known as the ‘greenhouse gases’ (GHGs)
These GHGs trap the outgoing infrared radiations from the earth’s surface and thus raise the temperature of the atmosphere. The global mean annual temperature at the end of the 20th century, as a result of GHG accumulation in the atmosphere, has increased by 0.4–0.7 ºC above that recorded at the end of the 19th century. The past 50 years have shown an increasing trend in temperature @ 0.13 °C/decade, while the rise in temperature during the past one and half decades has been much higher. The Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change has projected the temperature increase to be between 1.1 °C and 6.4 °C by the end of the 21st Century (IPCC, 2007). The global warming is expected to lead to other regional and global changes in the climate-related parameters such as rainfall, soil moisture, and sea level. Snow cover is also reported to be gradually decreasing.
Therefore, concerted efforts are required for mitigation and adaptation to reduce the vulnerability of agriculture to the adverse impacts of climate change and making it more resilient.
The adaptive capacity of poor farmers is limited because of subsistence agriculture and low level of formal education. Therefore, simple, economically viable and culturally acceptable adaptation strategies have to be developed and implemented. Furthermore, the transfer of knowledge as well as access to social, economic, institutional, and technical resources need to be provided and integrated within the existing resources of farmers.

Steven Lawry, Director of Equity, Gender and Tenure research program at Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) summarized findings of selected meta-analyses, presented case studies from Nepal, Guatemala, and Mexico, and previewed emerging research looking at the investment effects of community forestry models that feature strong elements of forest rights devolution.
Global Climate change & its impact on Indian Agriculture.
Climate change poses serious threats to Indian agriculture that could undermine food security. Studies project cereal production may decrease 10-40% by 2100 due to increased temperatures, with wheat facing greater losses. Every 1°C rise in temperature could reduce wheat production by 4-5 million tons. Adaptation strategies like new crop varieties, water management, and insurance can help minimize impacts but require significant research and policy support. Immediate action is needed on low-cost adaptation options while determining costs and policies for long-term mitigation through practices like agroforestry and soil carbon sequestration. Failure to act risks substantial economic and social damages from climate impacts on India's agricultural sector and food system.

Presentation by Bruce Campbell, CCAFS Program DirectorClimate Change Effects on Forest
Climate change is projected to pose challenges to forests through increased risks of moisture stress, habitat loss for northern species, more extreme weather events, and greater pressures from pests, diseases, fire and invasives. However, longer growing seasons and higher carbon dioxide levels may increase forest productivity in some areas. The effects on individual forests will depend greatly on local climate trends and conditions as well as forest management practices.
Climate-smart Agriculture
Climate-smart agriculture aims to achieve two goals: ensuring food security and avoiding dangerous climate change. To meet the increasing food demand by 2050 while adapting to climate change, agriculture must increase productivity sustainably. Practices like conserving and managing water resources efficiently and reducing food losses can help boost food security and mitigate emissions. However, achieving these goals also depends on demographic, economic, and consumption pattern changes. Climate-smart agriculture sustains productivity and resilience increases while reducing greenhouse gases to enhance food security and development, using ecosystem-based landscape approaches. Key actions include investing in research, supporting smallholders' transition, and aligning agriculture, food security, and climate change policies and financing.

Agroforestry can play an important role in biodiversity conservation by reducing pressure on natural forests, providing habitat for plant and animal species, and serving as a beneficial land use between fragmented landscapes. There are several principles of agroforestry that support biodiversity conservation, such as maintaining genetic diversity, protecting ecological processes, and improving landscape management for livelihoods and biodiversity. For agroforestry to be further mainstreamed in biodiversity conservation, its principles need to be integrated into landscape conservation planning and linked to global environmental policies and incentives that support small farmers' conservation-friendly practices.

The alley was planted with corn in two seasons Treatments include control (no fertilizer), organic fertilizer and inorganic fertilizer applied to the alley crops. Findings showed that the treatments with fertilizer applications had higher carbon stock in the jatropha hedges. The carbon content of the corn stover was also higher in organic and inorganic fertilizer-applied treatments. However, highest soil carbon content was shown in treatments applied with organic fertilizer (4.28 Ton ha-1). The inorganic fertilizer treatment had the lowest soil carbon content with a mean of 4.28 Ton ha-1. In terms of total carbon stock of the entire jatropha-based alley cropping system, there was a significant difference among treatments with organic fertilizer application having the highest mean of 7.79 Ton ha-1 while the inorganic treated plots had 6.53 Ton ha-1. The no fertilizer treatment had the least carbon stocks with 6.53 Ton ha-1. This recent study revealed that the jatropha-based alley cropping system is a potential land-use for carbon sequestration. This farming system needs to be promoted in upland areas to function not only as soil and water conservation measures but also as a possible remedy for global warming.

Agroforestry systems can help improve environmental quality by increasing carbon sequestration, enhancing biodiversity, and improving water quality. Studies have found that agroforestry systems store more carbon in both aboveground vegetation and belowground soils than non-agroforestry systems. The deeper and more extensive tree roots in agroforestry systems take up more nutrients, reducing levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment runoff into waterways. As a result, agroforestry improves water quality. Agroforestry systems also support higher levels of biodiversity by providing habitat for plants and animals and creating wildlife corridors.
Definitions and Classification of Agroforestry Systems.pptx
The document defines agroforestry and provides a classification system for agroforestry systems. It states that agroforestry is the intentional planting or retention of trees on farms through spatial and temporal arrangements. It then describes four ways to classify agroforestry systems: 1) based on vegetation structure, 2) based on function, 3) based on socio-economic activities, and 4) based on ecological conditions. The classification system aims to categorize different agroforestry systems based on their components, functions, and suitability for various environmental and socioeconomic contexts.

Abstract— The aim of this study was to characterize the carbon storage - Ec (Mg ha-1), carbon stratification ratio, carbon management index (CMI) in various systems use and management: a) Native forest (NF), b) improved pasture of Tanzania grass (TIP), c) degraded pasture of Tanzania grass (DP), d) hay area (H) with Urochloa (syn. Brachiaria sp) and e) Corn crop conventionally cultivated for 10 years (CTC). The experiment was conducted at Institute of Animal Science, at Sertaozinho, São Paulo State, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks with six replicates. The Ec, in Mg ha-1, adjusted variations in soil density, related to changes in land use were for native forest (112.9), improved pasture (81.6), system of conventional maize (78.2), field of hay (75.1) and degraded pasture (66.5). The highest values of carbon stratification (SR) were the forest (1.98), and lower in degraded pasture and conventional maize (1.10) - are considered poor in quality, while the improved pasture (1.28) and the area of hay (1.23 ) of media quality and while the forest considered great quality. For the different systems of use and management, low CMI values indicate a loss of soil quality related to native forest (100%), the values obtained in improved pasture (58%) indicate that there is potential for advances in the soil quality, adjusting grazing management and fertilization of annual replacement.

Traditional knowledge in climate smart agriculture
Traditional knowledge is unique to a given culture or society which established over time. It is techniques or practices which is well knitted with customs, traditions and beliefs in rural life. Mainly rural people or tribal are main custodian of this traditional knowledge. The traditional knowledge or practices are found to be socially desirable, economically affordable, sustainable, and involve minimum risk to rural farmers and producers. This knowledge is evolved over time periods so it offers a climate resiliency. The knowledge is also based on their belief and customs, so it is location specific and acceptable. As modern science or approaches are not well suited to many rural or remote locations, there integration between these two knowledge may provide better understanding and result. Modern approaches are resource exploitable however it is widely believed that traditional practices try to conserve resources. It provides basis for problem solving strategies for local communities. CSA identifies agricultural strategies suitable to local conditions for sustainable food production under climate change scenario.
Reforestation Helps Vulnerable Populations Adapt to Global Warming
This document discusses opportunities for linking climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies in agroforestry systems. It finds that agroforestry can both help agricultural systems adapt to climate impacts like changing rainfall patterns and temperatures, as well as mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon in vegetation and soils. The document estimates that agroforestry practices could be applied to 630 million hectares worldwide and have the potential to sequester hundreds of millions of tons of carbon annually by 2040. However, it notes that more research is still needed to better understand the synergies between adaptation and mitigation measures in land use and forestry.
INM in Fruit crops.pdf
This document discusses integrated nutrient management (INM) in fruit crops. INM aims to use both organic and inorganic fertilizer sources to meet crop nutrient requirements and maintain soil health. The document provides examples of INM studies in various fruit crops like apple, banana, citrus and guava. INM treatments that combined organic manures like FYM and vermicompost with reduced inorganic fertilizer doses resulted in higher yields compared to recommended inorganic doses alone. The document concludes that INM can supply nutrients to crops while reducing chemical fertilizer use and maintaining soil fertility for sustainable agriculture.
Agroforestry for restoration of phosphorus mines in china jianchu xu
Long-term sustainability of agricultural systems requires that soils stay productive and that necessary inputs remain available in the future
- Soil loss occurs more rapidly than soil creation in many agricultural landscapes, and the soil that remains declines in quality
- One-way fertilizer nutrient flows simultaneously cause pollution and scarcity
- E.g., Phosphorus: essential plant nutrient; expected to become increasingly expensive to mine and process; at the same time, P runoff causes eutrophication of water bodies.
Dr. anand salve af ppt
This document discusses the classification of agroforestry systems. It defines agroforestry and lists some of its benefits. Agroforestry systems can be classified based on their structure, function, socioeconomic conditions, and ecology. Structurally, they are classified based on the nature and arrangement of components. Functionally, they may have productive or protective roles. Socioeconomically, systems can be commercial, intermediate, or subsistence. Ecologically, systems are suitable for humid/subhumid lowlands, semi-arid/arid lands, or highlands. Common agroforestry practices include alley cropping, silvopasture, shelterbelts, and windbreaks.

Korea reforestation
South Korea underwent massive deforestation during the Japanese annexation and Korean War in the 1950s. In the postwar period, continued land degradation occurred due to fuelwood harvesting and poor forest management. To address this, South Korea implemented a national reforestation program beginning in the 1960s under President Park Chung-hee's leadership. The program established a forest service, comprehensive reforestation policies, and encouraged public participation and international assistance. These efforts led to extensive tree planting and a transition in forest policies. By the 1980s, visual changes showed successful reforestation had occurred due to strong government support, economic growth, public participation programs, and international aid. However, South Korea now faces wood shortages and uncertainty about forest
Green spirit
The document discusses sustainable forestry and argues that trees and forestry are the answer to environmental problems. It discusses how forestry has been wrongly blamed for species extinction and deforestation. The author argues that species extinction is usually caused by killing, clearing land for agriculture, and introducing diseases rather than forestry. Deforestation is also usually caused by increasing population and agriculture rather than forestry, which aims to replant trees. The author recommends growing more trees and using more wood as environmentally-friendly solutions.

Fungi (forest)
Fungi are categorized as saprophytic, parasitic, or symbiotic based on their relationship with other organisms. They require water, favorable temperature, oxygen, food sources, and other conditions to grow. Fungi can spread through spores and survive between crops. Common plant diseases caused by fungi include foliage diseases, bark diseases, and root diseases. Managing fungal diseases is important for crop protection and individual farmers' profits. Fungal diseases can compromise trees' photosynthetic ability and physiological processes, sometimes causing death.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
