Agroforestry at the forefront of farming sustainability in multifunctional landscapes in Europe

该项目的主要任务是促进创新和知识交流，并提供新颖的解决方案，使欧洲和相关国家的农民能够实现多种目标：粮食生产、碳捕获和生物多样性。农林复合经营是一种吉利的土地利用类型，使农民能够继续生产粮食，同时显著改善其经营活动的环境可持续性。将树木融入农业业务有助于提供大量的生态系统服务，降低粮食生产对环境和社会的影响。过去的研究试图促进欧洲农林业的复兴，从而形成了相当大的知识库和建模能力。在欧洲采用农林业的最关键障碍涉及缺乏知识、植树对农场业务的影响以及农业和林业之间的政策支持不明确。我们将采用共同创造和多行动者的方法作为我们的基本研究方法，将农林复合系统置于农业生产力、社会经济可行性和可持续性之间的正确平衡。我们将最大限度地利用现有知识和数据，利用以前项目奠定的基础上建立的农林复合生活实验室，并建立利益相关者和参与者参与平台，以实现知识转移、培训和创新。该项目将优先加强知识交流和转让，将碳融资和生物多样性融资纳入农场商业模式，并提出有针对性的政策干预措施，作为克服农林间作推广障碍的解决办法。

The primary mission of the project is to foster innovation, knowledge exchange and provide novel solutions to empower farmers in Europe and associated countries to deliver to multiple objectives: food production, carbon capture, and biodiversity. Agroforestry is an auspicious land use type, allowing farmers to continue producing food while significantly improving the environmental sustainability of their operations. Integration of trees into agricultural business contributes to a host of ecosystem services, lowering the environmental and social impact of food production. Past research has attempted to foster the renaissance of agroforestry in Europe, resulting in a sizeable knowledge base and modelling capability. The most critical barriers to agroforestry adoption in Europe relate to lack of knowledge, impact of tree planting on farm business, and unclear policy support positioned between agriculture and forestry. We will employ a co creation and multi-actor approach as our fundamental research method to place agroforestry systems in the right balance of farm productivity, socio-economic viability, and sustainability. We will maximise the use of existing knowledge and data, utilise agroforestry living labs built upon foundations laid by previous projects, and establish a stakeholder and actor engagement platform to enable knowledge transfer, training, and innovation. This project will prioritise enhancing knowledge exchange and transfer, enabling the integration of carbon and biodiversity finance in farm business models, and by proposing targeted policy interventions as solutions to overcoming barriers to agroforestry expansion.no project summary
