| Abstract: |
Despite significant economic development, rapid population growth coupled with land and forest degradation may cause many countries in the Southeast Asia to fail feeding their projected population in the future. Climate change is an additional threat to food security since most economies in the region are relying on agriculture and natural resources.
Agroforestry, the deliberate planting of trees with crops and/or animals on the same unit of land providing multiple economic and environmental benefits, has real potential to contribute to food security and climate change mitigation and adaptation. Promoting expansion of resilient agroforestry practices is now a key action programme within the Vision and Strategic Plan for ASEAN Cooperation in Food, Agriculture and Forestry 2016-2025. |
