Agro Forestry program visit for replication

The Agroforestry Field Exposure Visit for SEVAI SHG women farmers at SEVAI Amoor Kalanjium Centre showcased a successful model integrating fruit trees (guava, coconut, mango, lemon) with timber species (teak, mahogany). This system boosts farm productivity, biodiversity, and soil health while providing seasonal income from fruits and long-term financial security through timber. It also promotes soil conservation, water retention, and micro-climate improvement, fostering sustainable agriculture and economic resilience. Inspired by this model, participants expressed keen interest in adopting agroforestry on their own lands, gaining knowledge and confidence for better livelihoods and environmental sustainability. This visit serves as a valuable reference for replicating agroforestry programs. 🌿Govin
