Agrochemical properties of soils in systems of windbreaks and plantings of silvoarable agroforestry

open access: yesAgroecological journal
The windbreaks do not only affect the fertility of the soils of the adjacent territories, but also activate the soil-forming process in the stands themselves, which became the subject of the study. It was carried out on 6 trial plots located in pairs in classical windbreaks and windbreaks transformed into narrow linear stands of silvoarable ...

Modelling environmental benefits of silvoarable agroforestry in Europe

open access: yes, 2007
Increased adoption of silvoarable agroforestry (SAF) systems in Europe, by integrating trees and arable crops on the same land, could offer a range of environmental benefits compared with conventional agricultural systems. Soil erosion, nitrogen leaching, carbon sequestration and landscape biodiversity were chosen as indicators to assess a stratified ...

Integrating willow-based bioenergy and organic dairy production – the role of tree fodder for feed supplementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Silvopastoral systems that combine livestock and trees offer two main advantages for the animals. First, trees modify microclimatic conditions which can have beneficial effects on pasture growth and animal welfare.
